Hi all. I have recently purchased a e38 - 728i (2001) which I am loving had 330d before which was also cool, since I have owned the car I have had no sound and the head unit (4:3 tape unit) is completely unresponsive no buttons work at all but has picture of menu, so need help please ! I have tried the following

Updated nav software (mk3 nav unit I think)

Checked fuses and voltage which all seem ok volt is 12-13v

Removed radio module and replaced after few hrs and radio did work for a few minutes and steering wheel control worked also then it cuts out and all is lost again no other radio buttons worked apart from the streering wheel ones

I think the system has been played with as the Cd Changer is not contacted and i cannot see anyway of connecting it, it has a lot of kit in the boot, including a tm system

I am a new member and I am sure I will be helping others as I do have a good knowlage on BMWs but not on the audio system, I am in your hands!

      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

      BMW 318i boot locked can’t get into

      As an "Old Bloke" (big 80 has been and gone) I just dont see cutting corners as saving money ?? over a very long driving life I have owned many many cars I have always maintained my own cars (mix of maintaining Dealer Warranty and self). At one point when in business my cars were changed on a mileage basis but after retirement did I want to spend £50k+ on a new car, NO! so My BMW X5 4.6is and may wifes Subaru Outback 3.0 (2003 and 2004) were the last. The X5 and the Subaru are still going strong both around 160k and maintained by me in my Home Garage everything on both cars works as it should (as an aside both cars have had engine upgrades and give 400+whp) both cars are and have been 100% reliable. As the 4.6is is quite rare in the UK 3 years ago I brought a cheap 3.0d X5 and after fixing the bodges I have a reliable and economical X5 to tow with and stop the mileage building on the 4.6 Wrong coolant can do as much damage as no coolant as can a stuck or no thermostat (longer warm up times using more fuel) I agree with using recycled parts to save money just never Tyres Brakes or Suspension parts they are all that is between you and a ditch Dave
