What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Well thank you then

 

Yeah, they make you wanna just get fogs.

 

I like the blue also, not only does it go with those jeans, but the dash lights as well. +1 on the footwell.

 

Crazy, takes me back to when I first got mine! Mods get addicting! Have fun with it!

 

I think it looks really really good! Not sarcasm for the record, lol

 

It's been on the to-do list. Mine came with wiring running to the bottom of the grill for fogs but is not "Pre-wired"... Headache for another day

 

Nice ! Cant wait to see the new editions.
These trucks are not only fun to drive but there is so many things you can do with them as far as mods and tweaks to personalize them to your needs and wants .

 

Well there is a lot more to it but I’ll make it short as I can. I was so furious when I picked up my car I almost went back in there to look for the tech but wisely I went home and tried to calm down a little or I’d probably would have ended up in jail. I called my service rep and asked if it was normal for the cars to go on test drives for an oil change. He said yes when time allows they’ll take it between a 2 mile and 4 mile test drive to check tire pressure and then mentioned some other BS. I said oh ok is it also normal protocol for the tech to disconnect my front and rear dash cam ? It got quiet on the other end and then he replied oh no absolutely not they are not suppose to and told not to and sounded shocked. I also told him the car smelled like it just got off the race track. He said next time when I bring it in he’ll leave a note no test drives. I told him more than likely there will not be a next time! He said he will look into and find out why this happen and I never heard back from them. I also left 2 or 3 detailed messages to the service manager since it always went to voicemail when I called and never heard back from him. I also called my salesman that had been there for over 20 years and told him what happen and he also lost a customer due to what happen.He said he would let everyone know what happen in the proper channels of command. Also never heard back from him. I left a shitty review for them and I also have a email from BMW wanting to know why I didn’t buy another BMW. I will also send them a nice letter explaining what happen.

I'd say they crossed the shit line

Wow! I would've had the owner and/or GM of the dealership down there to smell the inside of the car, before I left the building. I would've had the tech there explaining WTF he was thinking...in front of his boss. Doing the calls and emails after leaving allows them to weasel out and blow you off as they did.

 

I thought of that movie also and now it’s funny but back then not so much

 

Anyone ever have this happen to them? Went off-roading and it was windy outside. when I opened my door the door flung my door open pretty hard, almost like overextending the door jam. there was a clunk as I closed it as if it was rubbing on the fender/door seam. It closed find, but now my driver window doesn't like to go up when the door is closed. When the door is open, it goes up fine. Anyone know what's up? Did I bend something inside the door??? What the heck? looked up a video on YouTube of replacing the driver glass & it looks like a bit of work that I would rather not do. Anyone ever open their door up & have some idea of what I might have bent?

 

I've got some OEM LED fog lights. If you're interested, let me know.

 

Yes that is what I should have done in hindsight. But I was so furious I was shaking and when I get like that it’s not good and my mind will stop working. When I was sitting in my car all I could think about was going into service bays and calling the service tech by name and grabbing him by the ear and drag him out to my car and stick his face into my unplugged dash cam just for starters . That’s why I left and went home and calmed down first. I’ve mellowed down much in the years and gained much wisdom . But I knew from my younger years when I get like that it’s not good and learned to walk away and calm down first. But you are absolutely right I should have went back in there and took care of everything in a professional manner like I did when I got home. But even talking to the service writer I could feel my face start getting smoking hot as the blood rushed threw my body with my heart racing lol. Even then I wanted nothing more then to reach out and touch someone. Definitely not the mature thing to do and again why I left initially . Some 20 year old punk that probably couldn’t even afford the wheels on that car raced it harder then I ever did after I followed the break in period faithfully.

 

Installed a set of Cali Raised cat shields……have to try to make it hard/harder for the thieves

 

I would've done the same thing, and I probably would've sent a email to the owner of the dealership to let them know what is going on in the service dept and how it was handled by the service manager! There was a similar issue with a dealership in RI i few years ago and it made the local news because it was caught on dash cam driving it like he stole it, to which the tech was fired and arrested.

 

sounds like you tweaked it what does the body lines look like between the door and the fender? does the door contact the fender when opening or closing any paint damaged? It won't take much to knock the window frame out of whack.

 

"happened"
