335 AC quits blowing after long trip
Last week after about a 7hr trip actually I had about 70miles left my AC quit blowing normally. I could hear it but it was not coming out of the vents. I had this similiar problem with my 2004 ZHP but I figured they would have fixed this problem by now. When I got home I turned my car off and turned it back on and it was fine again.
Anybodu else have this problem with the E92? Thanks, Lance

Interesting - this was a topic discussed several times with the early E90. I think people determined that a frozen compressor (or some such) was to blame, and there was a SIB for it.
My memory is foggy because I'm thinking way back, though, to the early E90 builds. Maybe there was not an SIB, but I think so. In any case, I haven't had any issues with my A/C and I haven't seen any reports of this problem since back then. You might want to search to see if the old problem is similar to yours, for some ideas if your SA can't figure it out.

Sounds like some peoples marriages after the Honey moon...
I don't have anything helpful to add sorry. Very strange though.

I had the same problem and it turned out to be the ipod adapter box that was hitting some type of flap behind the vents causing the ac to cycle incorrectly. If you had an ipod adapter installed that is most likely the cause. THe BMW techs couldn't figure it out and thought it was a software problem. Thanks to this forum, I was given the heads up of this problem and told the service dept. and sure enough, that was the cause. Good luck.

No ipod adapter in my car. It hasn't acted up again but I'm still gonna tell them to check it out. I also noticed a dimple on one of my run flats. Are tires warrantied as well?
