Chilli & winter packs, auto lights & wipers on the R56

[nickyboy]

Are the auto lights and wipers standard? If not which pack do they come with?

Which packs are out there and is there a list of what comes with each?

Thanks!

Auto lights and wipers are not std - they come with the visibility pack (which from memory also comes with heated windscreen and mirrors) ;)

Whats included in The packs have changed over the years so it all depends on what age of car...

[nickyboy]

2007-2008 cars. Can you choose a chilli pack and autowipers & lights without the visibility pack? Or if the car has heated windscreen, it will have the auto lights&wipers?

[Craig]

Yep you can pretty much have whatever you want.... Some people spec cars not as you would expect ;)

[Gismo]

So many options and so many people actually choose items included in packs not realising that they would be cheaper with the pack :lol:

Off topic but was the TLC servicing pack available from the very first R56s?

Tlc has been available since 2001 and very few cars don't have it ;)

[nickyboy]

That's what I thought, but I have seen a lot of cars with Halfords & Arnold Shark etc service histories

That's what I thought, but I have seen a lot of cars with Halfords & Arnold Shark etc service historiesTLC is only available for the first 3 years or 50,000 miles, you can get extensions after that

[MINIme:)]

I chose to have auto lights and wipers as a standalone option ;)

[Craig]

5 years Alan, not 3... You can get tlc xl which takes you to 80.000 miles or 8 years whatever comes first ;)

No excuse for a non-BMW service in the last 5 years then? The TLC option was only £100?

[Craig]

Pretty much... £150 I'm sure tlc was.

Rear view auto-dim mirror is a useful option to have...
