Hi, don't know if anyone can help, I have a BMW 2005, module to follow, al I know it has an intermittent problem with the sat nav, which also effects the radio, it sometimes works and sometimes cuts out and everything goes missing, I live in Croydon, don't know if anyone has any ideas on what the problem could be or how to repair ?

Welcome to the Forum

A diagnostic scan is needed using something like INPA or BMW 1.4.0 as your issue could be with 1 or more of the system components or a failing LCM 

If you are a DIY person then I would get a copy of BMW 1.4.0 which you can load onto a Laptop. iI is simple to use and will give Dealer level access and information all scan information is in English so no codes to interpret.

If the fault is with one of the units then it can be repaired (Google) or replaced. Today there are  several replacement systems available that are in fact cheaper than the OEM equipment.

If however it is the LCM failing a replacement can be sourced and contrary to BMW coded to your car (BMW 1.4.0)

      X3 2019 Rear roundal badge

      Morning Brian Welcome to the Forum First I would get the replacement that will be let you see how it is fixed. Next removing the old one, I changed both mine a couple of years back due to fading. The boot one had some sort of glue/mastic under it. I used my heat gun on a low setting to soften everything up then masked around it to prevent scratches and prised it off with a plastic trim remover took quite a bit of levering Hope this is useful Dave

      X3 2019 Rear roundal badge

      Hi My rear badge emblem has fallen off ! I'm left with what looks like a hard plastic curved shell attached to the car Various videos suggest on older cars these can be prised off the car, but I'm not convinced with this and am concerned about trying this . Any help here would be very much appreciated

      Do I stick or twist?

      Hi all, PCP is up in September and I don't know whether to refinance the balloon payment for another 4 years, or start again with a 2023 320i. Nothing wrong with the 5 series, apart from I wish I had Android Auto and split rear seats would have come in handy. My also concern is that with 56,000 miles, I could start to see more things go wrong (not that they haven't on the last 3 odd years I've had it). What is putting me off the 3 series is the £620 road tax and that all the temp controls are via the infotainment. Monthly cost works out about an extra £40 a month. Just wondering what others think?

      Scratching on rubber trim

      Hi all, Have these scratches on the rubber trim at the bottom of the windows on my 5 series, suspect thanks to whoever has been washing it. Has anyone attempted to either replace the trim or paint it?
