The CSL had severe brake problems last week and was taken off the road by a main dealer due to it being "unsafe" - a caliper had seized and fried the front wheel bearings.
BMW UK approved a 5-series hire car and paid for it, the parts were ordered from Germany and 7 days later the car is fixed and ready to go.
On the Approved Used warranty I've had the following replaced :
- Front calipers (both)
- Front discs
- Front pads
- Front wheel bearings
I'm guessing this list of replacements would not have been cheap if I was paying.......
So well done BMW, assuming it now drives OK they've done a cracking job, especially as the initial estimate was 2-3 weeks off the road.
should get the car back tonight :-D
