Hi

After braking at the bottom of hill (our drive) preparing to turn to go up hill again, the power steering went. With difficulty parked the car on the drive. Went to drive it again after an hour or so and took about 10 attempts to get it to move then drove normally. Has been in BMW garage for a week and apart from showing multiple faults on the computer initially, nothing abnormal, not able to replicate problem and nothing to specifically address. Car now to be returned to me.

Any thoughts or similar problems?

Morning Loretta

Not heard of this one before, my initial thoughts are a software glitch but that normally leaves some evidence behind I would guess the Dealer checked for any software upgrades while they had the car

Fingers crossed it was a 1 off

      My old e36

      I just been looking at photos of my bmw e 36 and put the registration in and noticed it is still on the road. I put a lot of work into this car and this car was the best car I had and we love to be able to speak to former keeper and see how it’s doing after all the work I put into it with all the interior etc and just to see how it’s doing hope this message can find its way to my old car. The registration is P7 6AAB.

      cruise control switches

      here is the biggest problem I have now; all of the bmw parts site show different configurations for the 2 switches. they all are showing 2 wire connectors and mine have 3wire connectors. my cruise cutout switch has a blue connector with 3 wire connector and the one i ordered is not colored with 2 large pins. the other switch on the opposite side of the pedal has a red connector and 3 pins as well. what would this be called and why are mine different than what suppliers show?

      EXTERIOR MIRRORS AND CAR WASHES

      Yesterday as I was going thru a car wash in my M440, one of the spinning brushes snagged my driver side mirror and pulled of the mirror cover piece. It was flopping around in the spraying water, held on by only a wire lead. Later, in the wind tunnel section, I actually lowered the window, put my arm out and held on to it. Otherwise I think the winds would have finished pulling it off. I had the mirrors in the folded back position and I think the problem is related to the mirror design, as it has a projecting "fin" which, when the mirrors are folded back, is sticking straight forward, making them easy to snag. Anyone here relate to this, or have any recommendations. This time it didn't do any damage, no paint scratches, and the cover simply snapped back on, but it makes me nervous about future occurrences. Any one know of any aftermarket mirror of a different design, as I would consider a change out.

      cruise control switches

      Morning Don Welcome to the Forum Below is a Graphic from BMW's parts catalogue for your car it shows the position of components and their part numbers. As I understand it the in a manual there will be switches by the clutch and brake pedal so that if either are operated the Cruise disconnects. It appears that all Cruise Control components are here operate from the throttle A case of testing each component bridging cables for continuity if a faulty item is found use the Part number for a replacement search and the best price Hope this helps Dave P.S. Z cars have their own section lower down No. Description Supp. Qty From Up To Part Number Price Notes 01 Control unit f cruise control 1 65711387625 $651.79 03 Cruise control actuator 1 07/1996 65718369027 $320.12 04 Bracket f cruise control motor operator 1 41148401744 $5.53 06 Hex nut with plate M5 3 07/1996 63259128043 $0.72 07 Bowden cable f cruise control 1 65718380083 $25.07 08 Bearing accelator bowden cable SCHWARZ 1 13541747519 $0.58 For vehicles with Automatic transmission S205A=Yes 11 Bridging cable f clutch switch 1 61121385400 $25.88 For vehicles with Automatic transmission S205A=No 12 Clutch switch 2 POL. 1 61318360421 $73.75 13 Cruise control switch 1 61318360926 $97.81 14 Button for cruise control switch (ENGLISH) 1 61311390968 $6.22 14 Button for cruise control switch (FRANCAISE) 1 61311390969 $4.63 14 Button for cruise control switch (ITALIANO) 1 61311390970 $5.25 14 Button for cruise control switch (ESPANOL) 1 61311390971 $5.47 15 Interface, cruise control 1 65718380054 $78.98

      4 Series Convertible - water collection in sills issue !

      Hi: There is a detailed article on facebook dealing with this problem. It requires removing the outer cover of the door sill (water may pour out) and notching it to match the actual drain hole in the sill. Simple solution. Don't understand why BMW hasn't notched the sills at the factory! I have a 2021 430i convertible and don't know if my car has the same problem. I have to lay down on the ground and check. The sill cover notch has to line up with the drain in the sill.
