400 kms on the vehicle, she actually got rid of her 335i M sport because she could not drive the thing with out the error which of course never showed up in the system when it was taken in.

I fought long and hard for the 50i, arguing that when we got the n55 it would be riddled with drivetrain malfunctions the same as her 335 was but at 15k more it's hard to justify. I told the SA and sales manager my worries to which they assured me that it would have no issues. I then said "if the x5 came in with drivetrain malfunction I want an upgrade to the 50i no charge"

Are there any other x5 n55 issues out there right now?

Do I have any right to hold them to the 50i, what are my options here.
These errors should automatically be in the log, no need to have them appear right at the moment you're at the dealership. On the bimmerfest F15 forum there are several posters with this same error.
