Hi, I have just purchased a lovely 56 plate e60 m5. If I put it in Drive mode the display on the dash will only display D1 or D2. Now I assumed that I would see D3 D4 and D5, I can move the selector up but it doesn't say anything other than D1 or 2. What's wrong with it?

its because the smg transmission will only allow those 2 gears to be selected at low speed or stand still, also when your say doing 20 mph it wont let you select 6 and 7 gears its just to improve driveability by stoping you selecting to high gear, hope that makes sense

      Replaced key battery still can't unlock car

      First post, just bought a 2019 1 series sport. Replaced the key fob battery as requested, but the key still doesn't work for unlocking/locking car. It's still asking me to replace the battery, read this goes after a few cycles of locking and unlocking. Locks/unlocks fine on mybmw app. Does the Key need resinking, not sure how long it would have been flat for? TIA

      Rear View mirror has come off windscreen screen

      Hi all, I got the adhesive that was recommended in a you tube video with instructions, it was from Permatex. I had to ensure I removed the old adhesive from the silver disk first which took some doing but needed a sharp knife and a razor blade to lift it all. There was no adhesive debris on the wind screen. To fix I then used a wipe supplied in the kit and used a small amount of the adhesive also supplied. The bond took less than a minute. You do need to be sure of the location as the bond is very quick so ensure you can locate the mirror accurately otherwise it is going to get messy. N.B. I had to remove the two connectors to ensure the mirror could be located properly. It was a little fiddly getting them out but went back once mirror was fixed to the windscreen. A good experience though for me and mirror is back on with the accompanying casing parts also.
