Hi there

I had an issue with the fuel gauge sender unit where the fuel level on the gauge was wrong.

 

I then checked the sender unit (on both sides) and noticed that i may need a new slider board. Please have a look at the picture attached.

Does anyone know where I can get the slider unit from ?

 

Thank you

Morning Paul

Welcome to the Forum

If you aren't aware use www.realoem.com to find correct part numbers put the last 7 digits of your Vin in the search box it will call up your model

I dont think you will get the individual parts that you have stripped your unit to but you will certainly be able to get the correct replacement part

You could try talking to someone like ECU Testing in Nottingham they may be able to assist

      04 525d

      Hi all, I have an 04 525d that I’m looking to get rid of. It has been well used and served me well but unfortunately I’m not willing to spend any more on it due to the age. It has 185,000 on the clock and recently failed it’s MOT due to perished ball joints. my question is, is it worth trying to mess about and sell it or just scrap it? any advice would be greatly appreciated. cheers

      Coolant leak

      Morning Kev Welcome to the Forum I am aware that the plastic return pipe (Header Tank to Rad) on the E53 became very brittle and was easily damaged. I replaced mine with 10mm Copper Tube after a long wait for replacement. But I was not aware, or haven't heard of X3 issues here in the UK I guess that you will need more from US based owners Dave

      Coolant leak

      Hi, quick query if anyone has experienced this issue. Purchased an X3 S drive 20I brand new, delivered on the 18/3/2020. All services conducted when required by dealer. Last service (major) was done on the 9/4/24. Approx 1 week later coolant leak was discovered. Vehicle towed to dealer, cause was cracked coolant pipe . Informed part would take 2 week delivery time ( ex Germany) at cost of $800. Vehicle has just under 30,000 on clock. Any input greatly appreciated. Thanks
