E Pluribus Unum · 08-27-2011, 10:45 PM

...took delivery of my E92 M3 ~ a week ago. Day two...low oil warning; Day three...increased emissions warning (a day in the shop). Do I regret my purchase?...of course not I love this car

-=Hot|Ice=- · 08-27-2011, 10:51 PM

Congrats but it didn't happen until we see pics of the beauty.

Team Plutonium · 08-27-2011, 10:52 PM

Congrats and welcome!

Post some photos!

cmk227 · 08-27-2011, 10:52 PM

congrats.

Don't worry OP, when I bought my Jetta, exactly 2 years ago, first night it overheated on me. Turned out to be a fan switch

Asiarush · 08-27-2011, 11:16 PM

How is life in San Antonio. I've been thinking to relocate to Texas; precisely Austin.. Not the same city, but just want an overview life in Texas. Pm me when you can.

E Pluribus Unum · 08-27-2011, 11:21 PM

I didn't redline it; haven't even taken it past 5500 rpms.

Asiarush · 08-27-2011, 11:22 PM

Aside from the traffic, San Antonio's an awesome place to live....

ottoblotto · 08-28-2011, 01:58 AM

^^^ Agreed. Grew up in Converse, after stint in military moved back and lived in New Braunfels. Both great places to live.

*Bonus-New Braunfels: go shopping on a Saturday morning when all the chicas are going to Canyon Lake/Schlitterbahn/Guadalupe River...

Congrats on the new G-ride!

mazing · 08-28-2011, 10:10 AM

Good Luck and Congrats. Love the color better get a foam gun and prepare to clean often (just the nature of the beast)!

PhillyNate · 08-28-2011, 10:21 AM

Very nice. A rare black zcp. Awesome

THE TECH · 08-28-2011, 03:56 PM

Hope the issues get resolved. Sucks to hear about this on a brand new car.

E Pluribus Unum · 08-28-2011, 04:06 PM

...everything's resolved and I hope it stays that way.

E Pluribus Unum · 08-28-2011, 05:53 PM

...seems my optimism was a bit premature. Took it out for a short trip to the gas station and my "service engine soon" warning light came back on. "Increased Emissions" has resurfaced after only two days. Is this a sign of things to come?

CBS · 08-28-2011, 08:56 PM

Dealer will work it all out, I have faith but sorry to hear of your issues.

She'll return the love and more! Awesome ride you have there.

E Pluribus Unum · 09-04-2011, 06:04 PM

...got it back a couple days ago, so far so good.
