HI there,

I was wondering if anyone could help me.

I have just bought a new 1 series base model and I am trying to fit a parrot kit to it but cannot get the stereo/head unit out. I have managed to get the vents out at the top but the heating controls and the stereo below is stuck solid. I have removed the 2 tip screws at the top underneath the vents but I cant see anything else that is holding it in. Please help me... its doing my head in !!!! :angry:

cheers.

Stuart

Its ok I have finally worked it ou after 2 days. Sometimes its better to walk away for an hour to clear your head. In case anyone else has this problem here is what to do. Do as above then where you have removed the 2 tip screws at the top of the main unit there are 2 little clips that you need to pull towards you which releases the unit and you can then remove it. TFFT !!!

      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
