I recently contacted BMW uk because I had some things wrong with my car that were pissing me off and my dealer couldn't fix them.
1 Park distance control keeps failing giving message on dash
2 Auto windscreen wipers are completely useless.
3 Sick of driving around with the headlights on all the time.
After 7 weeks in a loaner 330i I am told that they think that they have fixed the PDC but BMW Germany say that the automatic wipers are working fine and always have been.
Has anybody else had any of these problems?
What should my next move be?
Can you beleiveit 7WEEKS!!!!!!ouichouichouich:grrrrr::grrrrr:

What a bummer! I recommend that you contact the General Manager of the dealership and threaten him with a bad survey. That should get their attention.

Headlights

Turn the headlight switch right 1 position (not full left which is auto = on) to the off position and then further to the right when at night when you want the lights on.

auto headlight sensitivity adjustment

Seems that I recall a thread maybe a year or two ago regarding adjusting the auto headlights. Somewhat counter intuitively, I think you have to increase the sensitvity to get the headlights to come on when it's darker out. A search may help you locate the thread where this was discussed.

What is it about the wipers that you find problematic? Too frequent wiping, or not frequent enough?

I feel for you. You should write a letter to the Genral Service Manager & the General Manager about you situation & let them know how you want to be satisfied. Next step is to write to BMW directly, but give the dealer a chance to respond first.

I wish you the best.
