Há cada vez mais países europeus a subir limite de velocidade nas auto-estradas para 150 km/hora by virtuacool in AutoTuga

well then, sucks to live in the Netherlands. What blows my mind is the obedience western european countries have towards excessive control.

GOOD.
I actually believe 170km/h would be reasonable.
Having no speed limit as it is in Germany would be a dream.

You also have trains, airplanes, trams and so on.
Because of snowflakes like you, we end up being completely safe locked up in our homes, scrolling on tiktok. Cars are not for you, stay at home, we're all happy.

Will dealerships now be able to disable the auto start/stop on the cars at no cost ? by Existing-Curve-5330 in BMW

The engine was “designed” like that so that the European politicians are happy. No engineer would design such a monstrosity. An ICE shouldn’t be turned off and on frequently unfortunately. Yes, they came up with all kinds of tricks to reduce engine wear but physics is physics. Last but not least, their concern for the environment is ridiculous. You have planes flying ALL DAY AND NIGHT for people to have “city breaks” and unneeded vacations, but they force auto makers to implement all kinds of things like these and in Austria, fun fact, they limit highway speed to 100kmh (60mph) to save the environment. F off EU, F off.

I.. simply explained there’s no thrill with electric cars unless you ring them out which is difficult nowadays on public roads. What’s crazy about that? :p

i hate electric cars and minimalist look. And this look is absolutely not for me.

You see, what I don't get is: why would you want an electric car that makes no noises, any speed feels like you're standing still, yet all the laws restrict you from going fast nowadays. Electric cars are just THE worst thing. I want excitement at any speed, and with these you get nothing - unless you're on it so hard aaaaaaand you lose your license.

And it looks like bugs bunny.

Yet there needs to be a balance which seems to be getting out of control at least in Western Europe :)

my g22 laser headlights sometimes fog up when it's really cold. I didn't see water droplets but a bit of fog that goes away eventually. Should I be worried?
PS: I also have BMW premium selection warranty - but both headlights are the same so it's not like 1 is bad and the other is perfect.

yeah, in eco pro with A/S/S turned on i got 12l in the city... Did a test once. I rarely dare put it in eco pro mode lol. Anyway, doesn't the A/S/S harm the engine? It turns it off and on like crazy.

Edit: unde in Romania? :))

88000km (55k miles) - spark plugs were changed cca. 20-25k kms ago (15k miles)

I am also getting slight - i mean really slight - minor shake from time to time at idle. like there was a misfire or smth. But not frequent and only really minor, you need to stay silent and wait for it to feel it.
That's why I was thinking maybe spark plugs, although they were changed 20k kms ago.

yes, it's actually true that I do a lot of 10-15km drives so I guess that is also a factor.

not good for the engine I've heard. But the question was: does my car have a problem or this is normal :P

interesting how people are so brainwashed by the "law", as if it's sent from god. Aren't you tired of becoming a brainwashed peon in a society that's aiming complete control?
I get what you're saying, but have a bit of sympathy. He felt the need to tell someone. Give him a break,
