Hi All,
First of all as a new member I want to say hallo to every happy F20 user
And now back to the business. As a lucky BMW 120d user (produced in 2012) I decided to take advantage of the BMW offer called M-Performance Power Kit for 120d model. So simply called to the dealer and I asked about availability and potential dates to make this upgrade. Of course dealer said ok, great, they will check and come back to me with details. Dealer came back and said "There is no PPK available". Ok, so I asked him not available now or what, and he just said not available at all for my car (this model with this number).
I was really surprised and I tried to get more details but there was no details behind it, just not available and sorry, of course he would be delight to sell me one package but not in this case.
So, I just went to another official BMW dealer, I showed him a car, papers, and he said something like that "Car is ok, from technical point of view it is possible to install PPK but according to the number car is not "editable" and it is hard to do it here in Switzerland, it is about regulations". In that situation I asked him, If I take car to any BWM dealer in Germany there will be no problem to install official BMW package in my car right? He confirmed.
Status for now is that I am waiting final call from this dealer with more details.
Now my question is maybe someone from you dear forum users have faced that kind of issue?
It seems there is a potential customer who wants to spend money on BMW products but cannot do that.
P.S.
I forgot, from first BMW dealer there was a suggestion that I can make an upgrade via chiptuning, but of course I have to remember about car warranty... ???
