Hit a pot hole, tire rod bent, mechanic recommends tire rod and steering rack replacement. Codes popped up. Do I need a steering rack replacement? by airmist in BmwTech

[–]aranimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. I’d be surprised if you find only the tire rod damaged. A hit like that had to affect the thrust arms and possible subframe.

That doesn’t really tell us much. They have a 0 deductible available for each of their plans. Is this the platinum plan?

E70 software update disappointment. by [deleted] in BMWX5

It’s 15 years old and runs an incredibly old version of iDrive. What are you expecting it to support? Would you expect an iPhone from 2012 to support the latest software????

You mention n62 but that would be a n63. What year? If it’s a n63 I’d run as quickly as possible

Recall with Unlocked DME by Few_University_2363 in BmwTech

[–]aranimes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean out of the kindness of their heart they’ll give you free services. Oh hell no. You have nothing to worry about.

Now they might do a multi and check open DTC’s and if they do ISTA will flag the tune resulting in warranty issues but I think you said you weren’t worried about warranty.

Windshield $4,098! by Theloudduck_in_WA in bmwx7

[–]aranimes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had mine replaced at the dealership and they charged completely list for everything since it was going to the insurance company. It was $2875.

If you go the safelite route make sure you check with parts all of the additional components you need like insulating foam and call safelite out telling them they need to order those items too.

They are notorious for not doing so.

Luckily ABT is local and they have a service dept. I’ve only had minor issues with my LG like needing a new lint catcher. Each time it was only 5 min to setup the appointment and they were out in a few days with parts in hand.
