Ran into Unpaved road

[kimtiki]

Hi,

Last night, I driven into unpaved road because I missed warning sign....
It was about 60mph...as a result I got minor scratches on my new V710s but still worries what else to worry about...What should I check to make sure that car is fine..

Thanks

I believe you should be fine. If your that worried I would check under the car and make sure everything "looks" to be fine. But I don't think too much could have been done by running into some loose gravel except scratches and paint chips. (Underside is usually guarded by BMW's shield they put under their cars)

In GA sometimes we have metal plates in the road that bend peoples rims/axels so might want to look into that if it was a sudden bump and you are concerned.

the 135i has a very extensive panel underneath that covers pretty much everything. You should be fine.

So, I shouldn't worry about it???
When I ran into unpaved road, it was pretty bumpy...However, I have driven for another 5 miles yet I didn't felt any vibration on my handle. What I'm worrying is chips or crushed under panel because there was a lot of thumb size rocks....

Thank you
TK

I was driving pretty fast, and I braked pretty hard to stop right after....but I had to went through two bumps. Bumps that are 'U' shaped lol

Im trying to forget the scratches and chips on my new wheels

I think you should check your vision lol but seriously if the car drives fine you ought to be okay just look for scratches on your paint

The "U" bumps can throw out your suspension and or bend some of your wheels/rims. But if your driving and don't notice anything then I think your clear. Any type of wheel damage would be noticeable when your driving.
