Good thing you had the tire warranty! Is this something that is offered to you by the dealer? I don't recall discussing it with my US dealer. I actually took my F01 to the dealership today for the check engine light issue. As expected, my car is the first one back for any type of repair. There is also a Mandatory software upgrade for the car - so if you have a new 7- stop by the dealer. hopefully it will fix some of the glitches I have been experiencing. I didnt want them to write up the DVD/sound issue yet - too early to be a guinea pig.
I understand there is a new computer/software download machine that the dealers had to purchase for the F01/F01 ( and future F designated cars). They were "excited" to test out this new machine..... I received a 2008 750li as my loaner car. Let me tell you, it is a total piece of S$IT compared to my new F01. I was thinking to myself as I struggled with the old iDrive - how the hell did I buy 2 of these E65s?????? The interior is now a joke, the iDrive (which I have defended in the past) is sooo hard to use compared to the new iDrive. I'm glad I got this loaner to make me appreciate the F01 so much more and the advances in the car. Good job BMW!
I can honestly say that my F01 is MUCH closer to my M5 than it is to the old E65.

Thanks Spot
It sure was scary especially since the doctors at first couldn't figure out what caused my wife's chest pains... So they kept her for over 6 days...
I totally agree with you on the iDrive and the interior of the E65 vs. F01!
I assume you are referring to the F01's handling/power/acceleration when you talked about your F01 being much closer to your M5 than the old E65?!?
