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

      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?
