Reset idrive
Morning Mike Welcome to the Forum You could try disconnecting the Battery (Neg lead first) for about 30 mins (a Dealer trick) if that doesn't reset things then a Diagnostic session may be the only way Good Luck Dave -

BMW e38
Morning Veigar Welcome to the Forum The box in your car should be 5 speed ZF A5S440Z it may be cheaper to service/repair the box than look for a replacement. When was the box last serviced? ZF advise service every 60 to 100k (kilometres) If you were thinking of an upgrade there is a lot of work including ECU matching Good Luck Dave -

Insane insurance quotation !
Very nice looking car John I hope you enjoy it as much as your 325 Strange how sometimes the way the car develops and delivers it's power can feel so different. I owned a Whale tale Cosworth that felt fairly ordinary until 3k then hold tight, two E55 AMG's that were brutal yet the CLS 63 AMG despite having nearly 200hp more never felt like the 55's (made it easy to collect points if you weren't careful) The only car I have had that felt really strong was the Lotus Carlton it always felt like it was delivering every ounce of power My X5 4.6is was mildly tuned (uprated Cams and Throttle body) acceleration is instant, the Diesel needs to be above 2.5k before it starts to move. I had both cars at Goodwood a couple of years ago and lap times were within tenths yet the V8 always felt faster. Get the 635 rolling road tested just so you know it's delivering as it should maybe even an ECU tune The main thing is ENJOY it Dave -

BMW e38
Hi ,i have a BMW e38 3.0d 2001 ,I have an automatic gearbox and I would like to change it because I have problems when I go back, it doesn't work when I hit the smallest bump, I would like to change it with another gearbox but I don't know what other gearbox it would be compatible (e39 3.0d, x53 3.0d?) which gearbox do I have on the BMW e 38? 5hp or 6hp? -

Insane insurance quotation !
Hi again Dave. Well the deal is done and collection is scheduled for Saturday 15th June in the afternoon. The colour of the car is Deep Sea Blue Metallic with a Black Dakota Leather interior. I am rather surprised in finding that the 635d Auto is not as rapid as was my recently sold Mercedes Benz SLK 350 Auto and yet the insurance on the BMW 635d is group 50A and the Mercedes SLK 350 was group 43A. I had also seriously considered a Mercedes SL 350 Auto and that was also a group 50A car. The SL 350 was the most sluggish/less rapid of all three and I am blowed if I can get my head around the much lower insurance rate for the SLK 350 Auto.
