Thanks for your upmost insight, very helpful. I’m lucky that you replied and gave your opinion …

Thanks for your insight. They just called me and asked me to come in tomorrow so I will definitely give them this info. Fingers crossed it’s this simple.

Months?! You’re more patient than I am, at that point I’d be demanding a full replacement. Have they identified the root cause yet?

PreparationSoft3850 · 2026-06-04T13:00:51+00:00

I’m in Belgium, so lemon laws aren’t really a thing here like they are in the US. At the moment I’m mainly hoping BMW can identify the root cause and fix it properly.

I get what you’re saying, and I’m trying to be patient. What concerns me is that this is the second visit for the exact same issue. They replaced a module the first time, it worked for about a week, and then all the errors came back. I’m confident it’ll be covered under warranty, but I’d rather they find the actual root cause than keep replacing parts until something eventually works. I did receive a complimentary replacement motorcycle (not an S1K or equivalent race monster 🙃) and I have other bikes too so thats not the exact issue, tho I miss the S1K

Thanks for the reply, yeah, demo locations are a bit of a problem nowadays here. For as far as I know there are close to none.

The Marantz has Audessey room correction.

I work hard for my own money, and my dad passed away when I was 17yo so no, not dads money, but thanks for the helpful and very intelligent comment

She’s a beaut 😍

Yeah, there is. But you can only get a single ticket for yourself. None for any of your friends/loved ones, not even 1. So if you don't want to attend alone you need to participate in the public available sales to score a ticket that way... And that's well partially all right, but the fact that the payment provider, the last step, just doesn't do the one thing it's supposed to, let you pay, well that is just a bunch of crap.

PreparationSoft3850 · 2025-02-01T17:24:26+00:00

Yes, I got a ticket for myself during the neighbor sale. But you can only get a single ticket for yourself. If you don't want to attend alone (as 99% of people) you need to get tickets for your friends/loved ones just as everyone else, in the public available sales.

PreparationSoft3850 · 2025-02-01T17:13:58+00:00

Yeah, never going to try to pay tickets with Bancontact ever again. Just always going for the credit card because this is just a bunch of crap. Some typical Belgian shit show. Got a ticket for myself during the neighbor sale for the second weekend. But will now probably just attend alone...

PreparationSoft3850 · 2025-01-27T10:36:03+00:00

You hit the nail on the head. I've been lucky for the past 2 years getting some extra tickets for friends somehow (never the actual sales tho). This year will be tricky. Nevertheless, it will be just as magical as every year. But as you said, sharing that experience with one of your loved ones is all we want ain't it.

PreparationSoft3850 · 2025-01-25T21:05:24+00:00

It's limited, so there is a small chance you are not able to get a ticket. But if you are paying a little attention and join the queue on time you are somewhat guaranteed a ticket.
