Rough idle upon start up. Occurs daily. Weather is not a factor. Confirmed with collision center.
I have been complaining about roughness for quite some time. Especially when are is cold. I have a 2017 X1, less than 40k and the engine mount cracked BMW Service informed me this is an known issue within BMW. Not only x1 but X2 and some X3 models. Also said the others will crack within 10-20K miles I had made the concern known about the car almost or complete stalling out to the dealerships. Link below to the video. Part was thrown away on Saturday (I am told) No warning lamps, messages. Just some roughness tough who would think engine mount issue under 40K. Due to Covid car is out of warranty by 6mos as it wasn't driven as much as it would have been under normal times.
