Hi Again, Well after some email, Twitter, and Facebook Ping-Pong with BMW UK Customer Services, the car went into Williams, Stockport........ Despite being pre-warned of a maximum diagnostic charge of £78 for each of the items - i.e. intermittent starting, and worn anti-roll bar bushes: the car stayed in for two days and came back with a "software enhancement", no diagnostic charges, and the anti-roll bar bushes replaced for £109!! Apparently, nothing was found re the intermittent starting fault - but "some aspects" of the software enhancement address issues with the key fob receptacle in the dash-board?? Can anyone throw any light on this software enhancement - it is carried out FOC when certain vehicle / engine combinations go into a dealership for other work......?
