[QUOTE="mystvearn, post: 391271, member: 18921"] No, but what UK drivers mentioned is that, the cracks come after running over potholes. So I suggest you check your rims if you are unfortunate to run over potholes. I am not sure if Malaysia equivalent MIRA this case PUSPAKOM make individual test? I suggest you watch that feature, and the 2 full episodes of watchdog for the response on the subject. Watchdog keep tabs on BMW throughout the show but more impromptu with input from audience rather than that feature. Watchdog only reports on stories which the public comments, or want to investigate, not go investigate stuff which is of no interest. UK consumer rights quite strong, but the resistance from BMW also strong. Just imagined, if BMW made a recall, that will affect their brand. Since its very hard to prove that it is a rim design flaw, I think they will quietly solve this rim in their next updated version. Also German roads are like PLUS roads everywhere. UK roads are more like malaysian roads, some good, some bad. It is sad when you hear the stories from Watchdog. 20 year driving 5 beemers and first time got this problem. [/QUOTE]
