Missing my 135is
My 135is has been at the Dealership for almost two weeks....
I am starting to miss it a lot. 328i loaner is just not cutting it. After 135is, it feels like a old school caddie. Big and floaty. No idea when I can get my car back. Waiting on a part from Germany. |

What dealer is it? Want to borrow mine? I will say, every time I drive another car it makes me really appreciate and love mine even more. |

Try driving a toyota yaris or chevy malibu while getting body work done. I'd take the old 328i any day over those two. That being said, it is a BARGE. New 428i is even worse.

I feel your pain. My 1er has been at the collision center for 5 weeks and I've been driving a '14 Cruze. I'm jealous of your 328i loaner...

If i were you i would be happy that i am driving a BMW loaner.
I have seen people stuck with a Toyota corolla for a month waiting on parts/repairs(not that there is anything wrong with a corolla, just a different driving experience than a 135is).

My dealer does insane amount of volume in their service dept. So getting a BMW as a loaner is no easy task. |

Rental car for in warranty BMW service? WTF.
Can't say I was terribly impressed with my local service shops TALENT. I am impressed with their customer service but their work is average at best. I'd be tempted to call if woefully inept but I'm feeling nice tonight. I am not surprised at all that people are returning 5 times for the same issue as I went through the same thing only to have the various issues resolved first time off the bat at an independent or 3rd party specialty shop. Very embarrassing for BMW in my opinion and left me feeling, well, happy really. I'm finally driving a car that feels like new again and I paid less than half for the service compared to if I had it done at the dealer service center.

My dealership just says no cars available if all their loaners are being used.
