G82 Wind Deflector Warning
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I started using the wind deflector in my G83 and I am getting a "check wind deflector" warning on my dashboard. When I looked at the deflector, it appears as if there is a rubber piece that goes into the holes in the side of the car that is missing. Can that cause the warning to go off? Any way to get rid of it? The wind deflector is firmly in there.... I don't want to make a trip to the dealer if I don't need to. Thanks! |

Yes. If the deflector is in, the top can be opened/closed with one press/pull if you are moving at least 5mph

Fwiw, there's someone here that 3d printed inserts. Search should turn them up.

Good news. Went to local dealer and after sitting around for an hour they confirmed this is a known issues and they will order the parts needed to fix it under warranty.

My dealer is ordering the part but since that end is cracked (the part that broke off), he also quoted me $876 to replace the entire deflector. I laughed.
