Ive only had my car a week, and as soon as i bought it, i new the wood effect had to go as its SOOO 80's :D

Ordered the trim off ebay and a lovely X5 knob from lithuania and its made a massive difference.

Cheers ;) Oh, and a tip for all you "carbon effect" trim owners. If you have scratches on yours, use black plastic

trim dye and a fine brush to get rid of them, it works a treat

Looks a hell of a lot better, good job!

The "wood effect" trim doesn't make me think 80's, it makes me think Rover :wacko: lol

      2009 x5 xdrive 3.0d gear selection problem

      Hi I have a couple of problems with my 2009 x5 xdrive. 3.0d first of all. Should I be able to select neutral with the ignition on with engine but not started. Secondly, since I’ve been unable to select different gears or neutral I cannot get my car to start. I’ve changed fuel pump relay as not getting any fuel to fuel rail. Are used to be able to select a neutral with the engine off with this now stop the car starting

      Sorry Stu, should have said I'm fairly tech savvy.

      Copy Ignition Key?

      Thanks Dave & Stu, this is a big help, thanks. I have the original key which starts the car. The locking doesn't work, but I'm not bothered. I took it to a copy shop. The guy couldn't get a reading from the transponder. (That's the immobiliser, right?) So I said to him to make me a copy anyway. 25 quid. The copy operates the doors and the ignition but not the starter. So I now have a key with a transponder chip *SEE PHOTO* (I assume the red bit) and I need to copy the code from the original key and copy it into the new one. I did see a thing online but I don't know if it'll copy. https://www.amazon.es/-/en/gp/product/B0DY7VCTQZ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A18I26BYARIXXP&psc=1

      2008 530d e61 M sport manual gearbox

      hi Dave, I had a look there and if its there I couldn't find it, the only other place it seems to suggest is to do with the BC button on the indicator lever but I have tried that as well and no joy, it may be that there is some sort of procedure which has to be followed in the right order but until now I am at a loss. cheers Paneuro.
