Oh yeah, and mufflers off/turndowns sounds great. Just audible in the cabin, no drone, etc. ---

Update: I picked this car up in Rochester on Monday night. Drove it home with no issues. When I woke up Tuesday morning to go get gas, the check engine light came on. I had it quick scanned locally and it was throwing all sorts of misfire and fuel cut off codes. I hauled it back to Rochester yesterday and had two coil packs and all of the plugs replaced. 🖕 what a waste of my time and gas. The drive home was pretty solid, no issues with the motor and it was pulling hard instead of limping. I can see this car as being a very expensive decision as it has already ran bills into the thousands and I have owned it for 3 days. Thank you NY for the Lemon Law. ---

> [@Paulo](#): > > :tdown: > > Hopefully it was just a fluke. But at least they took care of it right? Yeah they dealt with it really quick and were cool with it. I hear that they dumped a lot of time and money into it from the BMW tech that they use. He said they are pretty upside down on it, so I hope that nothing else trips. The scanner said that the pack blew at 3400RPM, and at a normal speed. He says it looks like one went bad and took another with it. Fingers crossed that coils packs are the worst of my issues. At $50 each, it is not a big deal to replace them. ---

Yeah, I had my baby in the car as I had just picked it up and I was missing on 3 cylinders so I stayed pretty slow. Nice car btw. ---

“I will probably be adding a tiguan or a tourag” So you got a house…the BMW…and you’re getting a tourag? Let me do the math for you… 1 Money Pit + 1 Money Pit + 1 Money Pit = fail lol ---

Nah, the house I am almost done tearing through with all new stuff so it will be fine for years, I expect to pay for the BMW, the VW is a maybe as we are going out shopping this weekend and she can have whatever she wants hopefully new with a warranty. The baby is the true money pit! ---

Awesome car, can’t really go wrong with a 540i. And recent VW’s don’t have quite the reliability problem that they use to so don’t be too afraid to get into one. ---

The 540i should not be a money pit at all. The parts for them are not that much and if you ever need to replace anything don’t hesitate to give me a call. Or you could just pay Carnut/Psychopjv as well. ---
