540i pick-up operation: Half a year’s wait, everything is worth it!

My last car was a Mondeo luxury sports model, referred to as Haoyun. I originally went to see Mercedes-Benz C five years ago. As a result, when I passed the Ford 4S store, I went in with my wife to have a look. I felt that the configuration of the bullet train was good, and then I paid a deposit directly. Impulse consumption is harmful.

After mentioning the car, I gradually regretted it. I mentioned pearl white. in fact, the appearance and power of the car is OK. But the general feeling of driving by boat is really not very passionate. The main problem is the smell, a strong smell of asphalt that hasn’t dissipated for years. It wasn’t long before the lift car went to do the deodorization of the door panel and trunk. After it was opened, it was all black asphalt glue and replaced with powerful products, and the smell was reduced a little. There are more ruthless riders who do the deodorization of the whole car, dismantle all the chairs and replace all the asphalt glue on the chassis. I didn’t do it so thoroughly. Anyway, I never dared to open the skylight. As soon as I opened the skylight, the stench was sucked into the car, so that later my daughter didn’t like to ride in my car and said she was dizzy.

Then came the idea of changing cars, there are several mandatory requirements: first, environmental protection, which has nothing to say, for the health of the whole family.
Second, the chair should be ventilated and the steering wheel heated. Summer in Beijing is getting longer and longer, and it is hot from May to October. The previous car did not have a ventilated seat, but also had a black interior and sweated on my back with air conditioning on (I was not fat), which was particularly uncomfortable. Then from November to March it is very cold, sometimes the car parked outside, can only use a finger Zen, it is sour, it is estimated that many people have experienced it.
Third, the best 6-cylinder engine, 4-cylinder engine jitter is still very annoying, especially the idle speed jitter, more and more annoying, every time waiting for a red light will be like shaking after peeing. The sound of the four-cylinder engine is not good. I can turn the stereo up a bit, but this jitter can’t be shielded.

So one year after I bought the car, I went to see the Volvo S90 Magi S90 car, which smells the least, but it has the same driving experience as Mondeo, and the noise is relatively loud. Mercedes-Benz is concerned about the C43 Magi E43, BMW 328530540730740 has seen it, Audi S5, A7 have also seen it. The family didn’t like SUV very much. Later, they realized that what they needed was a quality family car, and the power control was secondary. It would be better if they had it. To put it bluntly, they had no money.

Since the launch of the 7G BMW 540i series, it has been paying attention. When it was ready to start production last year, it stopped production, and then kept calling BMW customer service to ask when the car would be produced. In May this year, the BMW 4S store in front of the house called and said it could be booked, then went straight to 4S to pay the deposit and began to wait for half a year. There is no price for car booking in Beijing, and the sales only say that the price will be set according to the price at the time of delivery. It was then that I realized that this was obsession. I actually wanted to buy 540i from the very beginning. Because the 530i can be ordered at any time, I have no desire to do it at all.

In fact, I was very lucky. I booked a car on May 31 and waited a month to determine the quota. I caught up with the 38-week quota in August, while those who booked cars in the same period were in September or October. Production is also advanced (35 weeks), as if 7.25 cars were taken off the line because of the factory holiday in August. Then 9.14 received the sales notice that the car arrived at Tianjin Port. I was really excited and thought I could pick up the car before 10.1. Then a basin of cold water was poured into the sales, saying that the car could not be shipped to Beijing until mid-late October because of the logistics outage of the 10.1 National Day parade. Ah, well, continue to wait, after a few days to close the sales car arrived, until the 10.24 car finally arrived at the store, and then went to the store early in the morning to pay the full money waiting for the car to be picked up.

At that time, the salesman said that the redemption certificate would take 15 working days at the latest, and the car would usually be delivered in a week. I didn’t think about it at that time, and then I waited for a week to ask the salesman every day, and then I was not informed to pick up the car after 15 working days. I felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, it was another basin of cold water. The capital chain in the store was broken, and they didn’t know when the certificate would be redeemed. I went, every day BMW customer service complaints, 12345 12315 complaints, contributions to various media platforms started. It is also the starting point of the 12345 Mayor’s Hotline. The Bureau of Industry and Commerce pulled me to negotiate with the general manager of the 4S store. In the middle, I met several cyclists who were unable to carry the car for the same reason, and set up a rights group together. I thought I would have to wait indefinitely, but on the last day of November, I was informed that I could pick up the car. I went to the store early in the morning and finished the license. I drove away without checking the car. I was afraid that there would be some demon moth again. No, no, no.

However, there was indeed a demon moth. When I went back the next day, I found that the two bottles of fragrance with the car were gone. Which way, I asked for the sales, and then they made up two bottles for me. However, half a year of waiting is still worth it, and the roar at startup feels worth it. All right, without saying much, I took some pictures with the fruit camera for everyone to enjoy.

The side line is very coordinated and more enjoyable than the long shaft. Shi Qing is handsome with black wheels.

Just as handsome.

Left 45 degrees

45 degrees to the right

Back right 45 degrees

Rear left 45 degrees

Long front, sports front face, with a new generation of spoon lights

China net is usually closed, with a foreground camera in the middle.

Dapeng spread his wings and came out in the weather a few days ago to disperse the smell and get some air.

Dapeng er

Dapeng San

Keep spreading your wings.

Spoon headlights, when insurance, the insurance staff and the sales chat about this headlamp, 40,000 each, I do not know whether it is true or not

Left headlight

A plump ass.

Left taillight

The right taillight with the 540i sign is synonymous with cool.

There is a valve on the right, which seems to open automatically at 3000 rpm.

The left side exhaust, usually when the right side valve is not open, only the left side smoke

19-inch wheels, before the arrival of the car did not like this black, now big love, with Shi Qing, very coordinated, a word, cool!

Big blue caliper, the fruit is good, you can step on as much as you can, and you still feel good about your feet.

When washing the car, I took several pictures of the engine compartment, which was clean and tidy. Of course, the coolest thing was that the L6 B58C30340 depended on him.

Change the angle.

Two more.

The last one is the engine compartment.

Refueling port, No. 95, 500 dollars for the first tank.

The opening in the trunk is still quite big, there is a kick, but sometimes it can not be kicked open, embarrassed

The space is still big and flat.

Central control in the car, as usual, this Matt aluminum alloy decorative board must be praised, it looks very moving, and there are mausoleum-shaped lines on the surface.

The new touch screen is equipped with ID7, which is easy to use. Gesture control is selected, which is useless. My daughter likes to play with it.

The new all-electronic screen instrument doesn’t feel as exciting as the previous dual-round instrument. The steering wheel has selected heating. In winter, I set the heating function to automatically turn on below 5 degrees. It’s cool.

Driver’s door control area

8AT from ZF: Big chicken leg, big chicken leg, big chicken leg

Looking at the central control from the side, the entire aluminum alloy decorative panel is the highlight. The actual effect is much better than the picture.

The mocha interior has a great effect. Please ignore the grapefruit peel. You can eat grapefruit at home. Put the peel down to remove the flavor.

The seats are wide and thick for high comfort

Rear door air outlet

Rear independent air conditioning

Power on status of rear air conditioner

There is a storage compartment under the air conditioner and two lightning ports below

Rear side door close-up

Front door co-pilot

Co-driver memory seat, Harman stereo

I am not tall. After the front row was adjusted, the back row looked almost like this. The cushion was relatively long and the knees were not uncomfortable. It seemed that a 1.8-meter height would work.

I adjusted the front row and don’t like driving on my back. I sit straight.

The main driving seat has many adjustable positions

The front row has ventilation function, I hope it can be used in summer

Light controlled area, and there is also a small storage compartment under here for some change and cards

There are leg rests in the front row, so it’s not uncomfortable for a big man to sit on.

The rear seats can be reclined. At first, I thought that only the middle seats could be reclined.

The rear middle seat has a simple armrest and cup holder, which cannot be compared with the domestic luxury armrest of the 5 Series

My daughter sometimes takes out her homework and writes while waiting for her sister in the car

This is the fragrance, like hundreds of dollars each

There’s a fragrance device in the co-driver’s glove box

You can put two at a time, and give two as a gift with the car. The fragrance is random, like there are 8 kinds of fragrance?

The front armrest box, the space is not very large, there is a lightning port, and the data cable of the USB port is not used yet

The co-driver’s armrest box has enough space

The tire pressure after picking up the car will drop to 2.5 and 2.4 when it gets cold. The alarm is always alarming, and it is soft when running. The tire pressure was set to the front 2.6 and the back 2.8 in the first two days, which feels a little high again. I will try again to see how much it costs. The tire pressure of the car before was only about 2.4. It seems that the tire pressure for preventing flat tires needs to be raised a little higher?

Finally, I put on the key, and now I have replaced it with a blade key. I feel a bit of a loss. I like Blade quite a bit, but LP took it away, and it cost thousands of each…

I don’t know what the use of this LCD key is, but I feel it’s completely useless. Just pretend to be a B? I went to wash the car, and as soon as I took out my keys, the car washing boy said, Brother, I changed to the 7 series…

The most people are asking now is why they can’t buy the 7 Series. The 730 price won’t add tens of thousands of yuan. Moreover, there is a special price for 740 priced at 69.8W. I can only say that everyone has their own love, and I like this generation of 540i.

Finally: Shen Jing, please ask the moderator to give me a certification. Moa!!!
