Thanks David for your advice, I have lubricated the cable and latch, hopefully it will be fine. Thanks again.

Hi, My 120i bonnet release latch is difficult to open the bonnet. It just started causing me problems. The handles comes right up but does does open the bonnet, I need to try it about 5 times and I am worried I will break the plastic latch. My question is there a way to tighten the cable or should I just replace the cable, if so how easy is it to replace myself. All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Cheers Dave. I checked the fuses and all appeared OK. Checked the switch wires all connected. As a last resort I disconnected the battery and re-connected and it seemed to resolve the problem, just not sure if that is the same as clearing faults on a diagnostic device, not resolving the issue. Only time will tell hahahahahahah Joseph

Hi, Can anyone help, my drivers window has stopped working and is open by 2", the switch is not working yet the passenger's one is, so it's not the fuses. Would appreciate any help. This has never happened before and Goggle sites come up with nothing Many thanks in advance Joseph

Dashcam fitted, rear camera working treat, all cable hidden, very pleased and thank you so much for your advice, greatly appreciated. It still such a shame they put the fusebox in such an inaccessible place, WHO DOES THAT🥵

This is the card I found on the internet. I have circled the fuses I believe are for my car. Also, I have never had so much trouble trying to access a fusebox in my life. You have to take off so much so you can work on the fusebox itself, what were BMW thinking

Hi, I bought a WOLFBOX Rear View Mirror Camera:Mirror Dash Cam Front and Rear 4K+2.5K for Car with 12" Full Touch Screen, Waterproof Backup WDR Camera, Night Vision, G-Sensor, Parking Assist,Free 64GB Card & GPS. Ran all the cables under the trim, looks really good. I also bought the Hard Wire to plug into the fuse box. My question is which space do I plug it in, everything on line says pull out an existing fuse and use the adaptor to add 2 fuses but I have lots of live slots. I have spent hours on line and different people say different thing. I have a Battery cable (Contast) yellow\ & a red cable ACC (only works when car is on) I attach a photo of my fuse box and I was either 1 - Going to plug it into one of the free space that tally with constant power (bat) and only when key on (Acc) 2 - No 54 - take 7.5 fuse - purple out (Bat) and plug it there, far bottom left of photo & No. 57 - take 15 amp fuse out bottom right blue fuse

Hi Dave, Bike brake lead worked a treat and now installed with no visible cable. Thank you so much for the advice. Another job ticked off Joseph

Hi Dave, Many thanks for that, I will keep you updated with the steps I took. Great advice once again Joseph

Photos: 1 - Car 2 - CAble plugged in to central consol by hand brake 3 - airvents and storage compartments removed 4 - Ran the cable along the plastric trim by drivers side wopuld like to feed it up to the dash. 5 & 6 - view from above to see if there is acces from the drivers footwell. 7 - Just shows where I would like the cable to come out It all looks really tight space wise and may not be possible but thought I would try.

I want to run a mobile lead from the central glove box adaptor along the driver's side, tucking the cable behind the plastic trim. I have removed the dashboard storage box and central air vents, I am trying to get the cable from the drivers foot well up to the central storage box. This is where I am stuck, does anyone know if I can run the cable without removing the radio, air con etc etc. I can send photos if it is easier. Many thanks, Joseph

great advice, will check everything before I order anything, thanks again

Hi Stu, Thanks for that, so just rear shocks and springs, not fronts? Quarry do them at a very reasonable price.

No noise that I can hear, it's just every bump in the road I feel. When I bought the car it was scrapping on most roads, so replaced all the tyres and it was better, as it did not scrape the road so much.

I believe they are 16" according to the tyres but when I measured they were 17"
