New 740i Owner - Few Questions
Just picked up a new 2016 740i in Glacier Silver, M Sport Package w/20" wheels, Driver Assistance I&II, and Executive Package 2.
I was curious if you guys received a mechanical key (for your wallet) with the display key, as a backup in the event the display key fails. There is a second key/remote that is the standard key, but I'm under the impression that isn't what the owner's manual is talking about. The dealer lost the display key and ordered a new one, which was received yesterday, but I didn't see any type of wallet key for the car. Does anyone sell the rear pillows from the luxury rear seats? I would love a set, although the snap-on buttons probably aren't on my headrest, but I'm sure I can retrofit it. Thank you guys in advance! |

Would you have a photo of the key? I've talked to my sales associate, and he doesn't even know about it. All I received was one display key and one key fob.

Well this is frustrating. I'm being told I only get 1 display key and 1 key fob, and they will look to see if there is a wallet key. Not like I received a checklist of all items that came with the car when I bought it.
With the November delivery comment, is that only on 2017's? I'm wondering if the 16's only came with 1 key fob and 1 display key. Thank you guys for your help with this, it is REALLY appreciated!

Check out this post - http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=903330
My car was delivered in April 2016 and I only got one key fob. I show this post to my dealer a few months later and they ordered me one to make it up. |
