  1. Car has been back in shop for over a week with no conclusion.. saw article online about lawsuit against BMW and issues with cupholders causing airbags to deploy and also causing electrical issues in certain makes :models.. my issue in my earlier post /video seems to be related to my cup holder as well. Any thoughts from anyone? https://www.carscoops.com/2021/12/bmw-facing-lawsuit-claiming-cupholders-can-leak-and-trigger-airbags/ Margo
  2. Tks Dave… tell me about the loom? What is it and what does it do? Margo
  3. Good afternoon, new issue over the weekend..car back in shop! Dealer had finally agreed to start replacing parts/Control unit?? Here the latest issue. IMG_1514.MOV
  4. Tks Dave, after sending my videos /pictures for 3rd time to dealer, they now say it was a software issue and it’s fixed.. I am not very confident AT ALL that it’s fixed but they say it is and it’s now been in shop 11 days this time! picking it up this am and will let you know… margo
  5. Dave, of all the 4 items you mentioned that could possibly be the issue, why are none of these showing up on diagnostic scan? Any thoughts? margo
  6. Hi Dave, Tks for the info..hoping now that I have involved BMW, I will get somewhere. VERY FRUSTRATED!!!!!!!
  7. Dealer can still not locate any issue from diagnostic test.. called and got BMW involved. Dealer has had my car in shop this time for 9 days!
  8. Ok thanks for the advice…
  9. As far as the phone issue..No it doesn’t display any number. If I answer it disconnects .. thanks everybody for your suggestions! I will arm myself with this knowledge. Last time they called me, they suggested that I needed to come back to dealer and have a tech “ show me how to work everything in the car” !😡😡. I said that was NOT the issue and that this was unacceptable and they needed to dig deeper and find the problem! Still have not heard back…
  10. Ok Tks for the advice. I am in the US but I still should have some fall back with dealer/BMW etc.. This car was “Certified “ when purchased at Dealer and is still under manufacturer warranty as well!

  12. Tks Dave, yes my car is being serviced at BMW dealer. I am not sure what they have actually done so far but will ask this am. I have also supplied videos and pictures of what is happening but when it randomly switches gears, I am driving and not able to film ..I do have pics of where my digital speed is gone and when it starts calling me.. Very frustrating because I have only owned car for about a month and it’s now the 2nd time in shop..
  13. Anyone had issues with 2019 X3 ? Just bought it used and having multiple issues .. while driving my car goes from Sport mode to Econ mode and just keeps randomly switching back and forth. Also had my screen glitch out .. Dealer seemed to fix that issue. Also my phone randomly shows a call coming in but there is no one calling and if I answer, it disconnects… It also does not show the digital speed in 2 of the 3 driving modes.. Now is the shop for 2nd time and they have no idea what the issue is.. any help would be appreciated.
