Indicator bulb gone

Yeltzer · 10-22-2010, 08:25 AM

Hi all

So I popped out at lunchtime and the nearside front indicator bulb went

Have phoned up my local stealer and its booked in for Monday. However, my warranty runs out in a couple of weeks and the lady in the service department "thought" bulbs were covered under the warranty but didn't sound convincing

Can anyone clarify this? Have looked on the official BMW site for a guide as to what is and isn't covered but to no avail.

Cheers

Yeltzer

I've had bulbs done before. Just popped in without booking.

Excellent news. Thanks for that. Didn't fancy getting shafted for labour etc for a poxy bulb.

I had a corona ring changed under warranty - no questions asked!

Well, all done under warranty in about an hour while I waited at Sytner Oldbury. Good service, plenty of drinks, papers and wi-fi to keep me entertained.

It does annoy me though when they move the seat position to drive it a couple of hundred yards into the bay... Takes me days to get it back to how I like it (oh how memory seats would be a joy to solve this issue!)
