Hi all!

Just to introduce myself I'm Gazz, currently living in the west Midlands near Wolverhampton, and looking to buy my first bmw! I'm looking at the 5 series E60 but having quite decided which engine I'm setting my sites at yet. I took a 530d for a spin today and was very impressed! And as I will be towing a large caravan when on my jollies I could quite easily talk myself into the 3 litre, although in reality I'd probably be wiser going for the 2.5 or maybe even the 2.0. Especially as I have a 46 mile round trip to commute which is mainly motorway so a good mpg return is very handy! But that's partly why I'm here, to pick your brains and speak to you guys that have experience with these beasts and find out what I'm better going for and what to look out for with them!

I'm off for a nose around the forum now to see what info I can find meanwhile any advice would be very much appreciated!

Thanks

Gazz

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      Hi. Do you have a light on the dash? It could be that someone fitted an emulator ?

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      I'm am sorry if I am doing this incorrectly but I have searched and not found anything related to this but I am still learning all of this. Does anyone know about the yellow airbag/ seat belt connector under the driver’s seat? I am sure the previous owner has changed this but I am wondering if anyone has seen this before? If so, should I remove the butt connectors and solder the wires? Should the wires be twisted all the way to the yellow connector? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, JayMe

      Connectors in the boot next to the battery

      Hi - I have a 2007 1.6L Petrol 1 series and it has wire connectors in the boot near the battery but I don't know what they are meant to connect to. Are they just spare or is there a part missing? The car currently not starting but we think it is a BCM fault but just wanted to know what the cables in the boot are meant for. Any help would be greatly appreciated be gratefully appreciated as we can't read the fault codes as we think the BCM is faulty and the car won't idle properly but there might be some other issue. Regards Andrew

      Bmw x1 2012 won't start

      Morning Marvin You need a Diagnostic Scan with a BMW capable system , I assume that when the Footwell control module and and Battery were replaced they were correctly registered to your chassis ? Has your Mechanic checked the starter solenoid ? much cheaper than a starter Hope this helps Dave
