As requested - BMW 135i findings
You might be shocked to read this.............. As some of you know I had a 53 plate 320i Sport, primarily my wife's wheels. However, I found this a real barge after coming out of any of the rest of the fleet, so when it got a bit leggy (98k miles) I knew I could sell it easily and started the resea...

Re: Z4 Stuck in Transport Mode after flat battery
Never heard of anything like this.

I did have buy some IRONX to give them a cleaning though as the brake dust was caked in where previous husband did not clean wheels........the IRONX cleaned 6-7 years of caked in dirt off in two simple cleans.
Enjoy.
