My issues...

Hi,

I've had my new Z4 for three weeks now and have experienced:

1) An annoying issue where on occasion the car won't lock using the key fob button. I either need to start the car and turn off and try again or position the key next to the steering wheel column. I've since decided to use Comfort Access where even there are occasional issues. The issue occurs with both keys with new batteries.

This message appears when the lock issue is experienced:

'Vehicle key missing: Vehicle key not available or malfunctioning. Engine start not possible. See Owner's Handbook for further information'.

2) The 'quiet' DAB issue.

3) An occasional rattle from the plastic central console area.

4) Slow and poor wireless phone charging. After a 2 hour drive my phone charge increased from 19% to 31%. My previous BMW had sprung holders that kept the phone in position but the Z4 allows the phone to move around during driving. The phone is also warm.

5) I have all of my music on a USB stick. The Z4 doesn't return to the track\point I left off on when starting the car so I have to navigate to the last track. This was never an issue with my other BMWs.
