I called and the customer relations they have no clue and they were not willing to transfer me to technical support or anyone that would have an answer to my question. basically they just say sorry that we can not help you on this but you may ask question to your dealership maybe they can answer the question or a mechanic that works in the shop

The people at these call centers aren't going to have a clue what you're talking about. Complain to the dealership who can then try to level it up to regional reps.

we did a complaint here in germany.
i collected over 20 buyers and wrote a letter to bmw and the m gmbh. that didnt changed anything. i attached all the vin numbers and we wrote how unhappy we were! the sounddesign was one of the main reasons for us to order the m340i after a testdrive. preorder sound was fine... but they delivered something different as ordered. this and many other words didnt mean a thing to both companies. the answer was very distanced and unpersonal... all they said was... it had to be changed cause of new regulations and restrictions due economy and soundemissions! so, just dont waste your time! |

Did you mod the pops and burbles back in? If so, how?
