The front brakes were squealing when lightly braking since the replacement Chinese-made replacement brake rotors were installed 9,000 miles ago. Read that this was a common issue for non-BMW rotors, so I replaced the brake rotors with ATE (OEM supplier) brake rotors. |

car had trouble starting in weather below freezing. EML, brake and stability control lights came on, along with check engine. mechanics replaced spark plugs, did tune up and replace transfer case fluid. still had same problem on cold startup. mechanics recalibrated whole electronics system, including stability control, no further issues--but it hasn't been below freezing, so we'll see if that actually worked. engine sounds good, driving feels very smooth. |
