IDK if LA is different than any other place, but if you set up your appointment time early in the morning and request a loaner, you should be able to grab one at any dealership. In past experiences, I've never been denied one when having an appointment on Monday or Friday at 7AM.

It would also benefit you to ask this in your regional sub-forum.

if you are talking specifically about BMW loaner - Pacific and Center don't give you BMWs unless you bought/leased from them. If you are ok with just any rental loaner - Center BMW on Van Nuys always hooked me up with some Enterprise car for free, even though I didn't buy from them.

Really? That's such a blower.

This doesn't help you, but for others, New Century gives me BMW loaners even thought I bought my car from Long Beach BMW.

really? Pacific gave me a loaner, and I didn't buy from them. It was warranty work though that ran longer than they thought ....maybe that was why?
