Morning Gordon

Welcome to the Forum

Thats a whole can of worms to open 😁

First there is the question of is your car air suspension front and rear? Rear air Front springs or has it been converted to springs all round.

If it is to be a full spring conversion I would look at companies like Eibach well recognised and reliable ( Cost I would guess at around £500 to £1k )

If you want to retain the OEM rear air suspension I have read of rear adjustable links ror the ride height sensors combined with adjustable front springs ( Cost around £500 )

If it is a full air suspension I talked to a guy at Goodwood who had a BMW 3.5d X5 on a fully adjustable Airride suspension kit he could select ride height from a panel in the car or through an App on his phone very cool. He could choose 4 preset ride heights (his choice) He told me cost was £1600 2 years ago

      Help with 2014 X3 RDC and TPMS

      I used another ODB reader, I am able to get additional information about the error code. It looks like the used RDC is not properly reprogrammed to work with my car. Do you know if the I-Carsoft 3 or Foxwell 510 is able to reprogram the RDC properly and resolves the errors? Or if the BMW INPA/ISTA the only tool that can fix it? Thanks!

      Pure oil in coolant tank

      Morning Simon Welcome to the Forum If there is that much oil in the Header Tank it follows that water should be in the sump what is the Dip stick showing I have never seen anything like that before ? by the stains around the top of the header tank it almost looks like it has been poured in there? I have read of unscrupulous buyers distracting owners and pouring oil into header tanks then claiming head gasket failure and offering stupid low price to complete the sale. But thats OTT I doubt the engine would be running well if that much oil is being lost to the cooling system. First I would carry out an oil change if there is water in the oil then you will see it around the oil cap as a creamy residue and definitely in the drained oil. If the drained oil is OK and the Oil Filler Cap clean next step is drain the coolant remove the header and clean it (if possible) with the coolant drained you should be able to check the oil cooler and its seals to the rad Good luck detecting the cause Dave
