So I Took My Car In For Service....

So as you all know my brakes have been squeaking really bad, so i took it in for that and i had long starts.
I drop it off and about 2 hours later they call me, and tell me that both my front pads were cracked, so they replaced them, still squeaks some.
As far as the long start goes they said it is not normal for the N54 to do that right now, when and if a new updates comes out that will be fixed. I dont get why my engine does it but the guy that did the service on my car says his 335i doesnt do that? :iono:
So i guess i will wait for the update to come out.

Overall very nice visit tho.

I have no problem with starting the car. took 1sec to start (I know it well coz I stalled many times :P). I guess they fixed it in V81 software?

long start is one of the signs of fuel pump issues. Do some searches on long starts and fuel pump. You want to keep an eye on it

A few aggressive stops may eliminate your brake-squeal.
