Question Questions...

1.the rear windows control buttons do not have one- touch up/down function in my car... is this the same for you guys??

2.the weather has been hot for the past couple of days... and the airconditioning on the car is the weakest I've ever experienced. Maybe I've gotten used to the strong A/C of X5, but it feels strangely weak. Should I get this checked by dealer??

3.As I have expected, my ash interior is getting dirty already. especially the inner bottom part of the door as I keep kicking that part when I get out of the car... the bad thing is that this part is made of cloth, not leather or plastic!! how could I get this cleaned? can I use soap or is there something for cloth??

How are you guys liking the cars??
and LikuidM5, don't worry... when your car arrives, you won't even remeber complaining about the delay...

1.Only the front windows w/one touch function.
2.No idea about BMW, but my two MB feels compatible.
when A/C is on.
If no passenger in the back, you can off the rear fan thus
the A/C is stronger in the front.

My AC gets so COLD, condensation takes place! Water was coming out frozen! It's like an ice box! Definately get it checked out ASAP!

I experienced the same problem with the door. Just take a Slightly Wet or Damp sponge and press it on the door to soak up the dirt. Mine wasn't that bad so it worked pretty good. Now every time I get out I make sure I don't kick it!

The rear windows don't have the auto up or down, but you can get them modified and have it installed. It cost me $300.00 and it works great!

Ciao,

"The Don"

Beverly Hills Auto Toys, I have a friend there who knows all about this stuff. I have no clue how he did it.

Cheers!

If the material is fabric, you can try using interior carpet cleaner. You can buy it from any auto parts store or find it in the auto ailse. Just spray it on and soak it up with a rag when the foam disappears. Used to work great with my BMW.

Thank you guys for your answers... I'll definitely have the AC checked... I drove my uncle's S500 today and the AC was definitely stronger than mine...
I'm not sure if I want to check anything electrical on the car so I'll pass on the one touch buttons...

Does any owner in the US want to switch to dual the exhaust (or qaudro exh.)?? Are there any auto shops in the NYC/NJ areas?? Otherwise, I 'm planning on going to Boston to get some work done on my car...
