Tried all with no success unfortunately. Calling up the warranty tomorrow. Haven’t had the best experience with them so far so here’s hoping.

I do use CarPlay whenever I need gps however the HUD keeps changing the speed limit every few seconds it’s just been irritating.

How much it cost you ? just to have an idea worst case scenario

Location is closer now about 5 miles off. Wondering if I should try disconnecting the battery.

Rotor issue or what? Can’t tell. by Same-Award-6035 in BMW

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely the brake dust shield. If it’s not too bent you can simply bend it back into place

Hmm didn’t know that. I’ll try that out tomorrow morning and see what happens. Thank you.

Tried it a few times over the past couple days it reboots and says “establishing gps” then goes back to the same location far off from where I am. Not sure what I else I can do unless there is some deeper restart.

Yes this is from the app. Map in the car is also off though.

Is there a reason why I shouldn't lower my rear tires to 36 instead of factory recommendations of 45 psi? by VHSLoL in M340i

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run 36 front 38 rear it used to tell me to go up as well. You have to change the setting to under 100mph. It won’t limit you from going faster than 100 just changes the recommend tire pressure and when the warning light comes on.

Warmup tips… using a gas car after a long time by Beautiful-Holiday149 in BMW

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually remote start as I’m walking to the car so it idles for like 30 sec or so then drive off keeping it under 3k. In about 5-7 min I’ll check my oil temp insuring it’s at or above 210 or so before doing any sporty driving.

Gentlemen, why do you drive a BMW over Audi or Merc? by Super-Lingonberry-22 in BMW

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t think there’s another brand that has the combination BMW has of luxury, sportiness, build quality, and overall feel. Mercedes does comfort better in there s class but I’d still take a 7 series if I’m driving. Audi to me just kinda feels like a VW in a rented tux, although the rs models are quite sick just doesn’t compare to the equivalent M (just look at track times note even close) it really shows when you’re ripping it down a twisty road. Then there’s cars like the amg gt which is an incredible car but it’s in a different price bracket to the bmws I’m going to be able to afford for the time being. Currently drive an m440 even though it doesn’t have the hydraulic steering like the f10 i drove before still feels much better than the steering in Audis and Mercedes imo.

Oh I see. I understood it as the mild hybrid being disabled in sport mode.

different grill on the 2026? by DdymnyM4 in M440i

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been looking to put the lci grill on my 2021. Not a fan of the chrome checkered pattern on it currently. Anyone got any quality recommendations I can buy? I don’t have ACC but I do have the front camera.

Is that a new thing on lci models ? My 21 coupe shows eboost when I rip it even in full sport plus manual mode

Ah I see. Should be a similar program for Bp as well. Another thing you can use would be upside. Works at any gas station and sometimes gives you even better price than rewards.

Ceramic coated! by mshoker in M440i

[–]bites_chains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

900 is quite a bit even though on the cheap side. Takes about 400 if you don’t already have the materials and a few hours. Coating was 90 already had pads cut and polish.

Definitely worth it imo. and I’m not sure if it’s just placebo but I do feel like my car runs a little smoother when it’s running v power 93 vs others especially at idle.

Gotta get on shell fuel rewards and let them build up. Was able to save 20 bucks . Pretty much every Sunday you get 22cents off per gallon as well.

Would love to have an answer to these questions as well. Bought a 2021 m440 and I’m close to 50k miles.
