Trading in E60 for F30 and have a few issues

chrisymarr · 12-20-2013, 02:39 AM

Hi Guys

Hoping someone can clear this up for me. I drive an 04 E60 535d and I am due to pick up my new F30 in two weeks time.

Since the dealer has looked at the car the steering angle sensor has developed a fault and has put the traction control light on.

Will this be a deal breaker or will the dealer not care?

Thanks

Chris

My dealer never checked my trade in on the day. Just handed over the keys.

With a bit of luck the same will happen with you.

And if they call you deny all knowledge

Yeah I doubt they'll even check it to be honest.

Its an '04 and therefore will be traded. They won't even clean it, straight to the compound and onto the transporter bound for auctions...

Don't worry.
