Yeah, supposedly. I have the paperwork in the car. I'll post it when I get a chance. I appreciate the support from everyone. I checked the alignment sheet they gave me of the car, and it was WAY OFF...pretty scary and makes sense as to why I felt the wobbly hydroplaning feel before.

LOL, thank you, my friend . Just a good feeling to be rolling downhill after climbing over the mountain of issues I've had to go through. I know more people want pictures, so I will post an old (not so great) picture I took of the interior the other day.

Glad to see you got it fixed. It is not surprising to see alignment off after major suspension work. Now for that pesky little start /stop button issue and you are good to go.

Lol, thanks, buddy . I'm going to tackle the RaceChip first in the next hour and wait on Shawn about the 6WB before I remove it.

Ohhh, pity to hear this Omar!!!
Indeed all of users here want to help you (but actually can't) as you are the one who helped to others!!! So, hopefully you and Shawn will remove 6WB without any issues and you will be able to visit dealer and fix problem! As many others said we all keep fingers crossed! P.S. Keep following thread... |

Cancelled my appointment today because of the huge snowstorm. I will have to reschedule for either Saturday or Monday. We got like 6-8 inches already and it's still snowing, lol. I'm gonna drive my car tonight at some point to test in the snow and make a video to see how the 22s handle.

Thanks Wendell . If you read my latest posts above your post, you'll see that I had gotten in touch with my BMW SA. I also cancelled my appointment this morning because of the big snowstorm as you can see above. I will reschedule it soon. It's a tiny hiccup. The car can still shut down upon one button push followed by key fob lock, so the car is fully functional/drivable thankfully.

So, I just got home from driving in the snow (forgot I took my micro sd card out of the dash cam to check it the other day and didn't put it back in so no video, sorry). As I got into my garage, I realized that the brake likes are constantly on when my engine is on. So, something with the brake light sensor is being triggered with the engine start. So, unless the car is completely shut down (key fob) lock, the brake light remains on even when shut down with one button push.

Good news and then bad news .
Good news: I was right and I figured out the brake light issue! The brake pedal (for who knows what reason was not fully coming back up all the 100% (I guess it was coming back up like 98-99% - yes that close), and this was causing it not to the touch the sensor that tells the car computer that you are no longer pressing the brakes so it's time to shut off the brake lights. Well, when I used my left foot to pull the brake pedal towards me, bye bye brake light. Now of course this is annoying for me to have to pull the brake toward me EVERY single time I brake - so I think the hydraulic mechanism some how needs more pressure or the sensor itself maybe got pushed in when it needs to stick further out. I'll figure that out today. I know how to take apart the brake pedal area to get access to this sensor, thankfully. Also, my pulling the brake pedal toward me and having the brake lights shut off, I was able to do a two button push to turn off my car completely. Bad news: For some reason, in EcoPro, I randomly will get a chassis stability error. It happened before I got the alignment during the snow day a few days ago when I took that picture of my F15 in the garage, but went away with the next engine start. Now, again it happened this morning; so, it has nothing to do with the alignment. I wonder what it could be related to. Here I thought I was finally over all the issues....ugh.
