bmw recall - what a strange state of affairs!
Discussion
Nothing wrong with Hyundai they. make some good cars and they back them with a 5 year warranty
Somethings too much emphasis put on German so-called good engineering
With the market upheaval coming with electric the Far East and Chinese manufacturers may well be market leaders in 10/15 years.

I don't have an issue with BMW recalling the cars early. Safety is of paramount importance, however I budget for my car as I need something of that standard for my job. To be given a replacement car that isnt of the same standard, whilst they are fixing their mistakes/errors with the vehicle I purchased from them, it just isnt fair.
My car is in the service centre now, if it needs to stay in for a few weeks and I get a Hyundai I'm taking legal action.
Yeah, ok.My car is in the service centre now, if it needs to stay in for a few weeks and I get a Hyundai I'm taking legal action.
Good luck with that one.
Here's a clue.
The dealer did not design, build or manufacture your car, BMW did, the dealer is only acting on what BMW tell them to do.
Oh, and there is not an unlimited supply of BMW courtesy/hire cars lying around just in case you 'must' have one.
I'm sure you will cope in your job in a Hyundai or whatever just as well as your BMW.

Has anyone had any issues since they had their egr cooler replaced? Mine got replaced in April but now had the low coolant warning but no obvious signs of a leak so wondering if this new cooler could be faulty too.
Is the coolant level actually dropping? If yes, it must be going somewhere.
If no, then I'd say you've got a dodgy coolant sensor.

I had my cooler replaced last year, just before the recall kicked off. Had to be replaced again this year, I'm hoping they've updated the design but wouldn't bet on it.4rephill said:

I’ve checked today whilst engine cold and topped up so will see in a few days if dropping. If yes, it must be going somewhere.

Just a pain if it is the cooler again as last time it was 2 months before I got it back, and I wonder if they’ll replace foc!

After topping up last Friday it’s came up again low coolant. Car doesn’t get used much either, probably 100 miles at most.
Will see what bmw say tomorrow. No doubt they’ll want a diagnostic fee! No obvious signs of any leak so must be going somewhere.
Getting fed up with water issues with this car. Had headlight with condensation in, sorted that problem, then water in rear passenger footwell, sorted that, now this! Sometimes wonder if I should try something else other than a Bmw.
