CIC replaced for the second time in two years...

[velociti]

Just wanted to put this out there. Bought my '11 135i last June and had the iDrive replaced in the fall after experiencing the constant restarting/red screen of death issue. My warranty ends tomorrow, 8/2/2014, and I brought the car into the dealer for the same issue this week. Only had the red screen once, and it was a few weeks ago, but wanted to sort it out before the warranty expired. Sure enough, it's the CIC again, and it will be fully covered. I was told that replacement parts are warrantied for two years, which is comforting...I think.

Anyone else have this issue?

I haven't had that problem exactly in my 2011 135i E88, but my CIC drops the presets from time to time, disappearing when restarting the car. I'm bringing it in for them to look at tomorrow. Also, when I set the Display brightness with the iDrive, it does not hold the setting either, but goes to the default brightness. Mike
