Would you beleive me if I told you the 2007+ X5 has a monsterous battery (literally like double the size of a standard one) and in order to change the battery, you have to go to the dealer in order to reprogram the new battery?!?! Holy crap! So a battery change is like a $500 cost. Hell no.

Had a Chevy Cruze rental the other day, wasn't my choice. But it had a particularly annoying system.
You can't disable it. At all.
The only way you can override it is by putting it in L (basically sport mode for shift logic only) then pressing up to select the highest gear you want to allow. Nobody would know that without researching it.

While it is something small, but that would have been a deal breaker for me if i were in the market for Cruze.
