I will try the battery 1st

do I just undo the negative first then positive 

and then I assume putting them back on is positive first then negative

Morning Dave

they are brand new pad sensors, discs and pads.

if I disconnect the battery, will I need to re enter the stereo code?

hey all

couple issues here, hope someone can help
2008 120d

1. Just had the brake pads, discs done and pad wear sensors done - how do I remove the warnings on the dash?

2. Got the dtc/dsc light on after driving in rain, how do I remove this light (as pictured)

thankyou 🙂

Thankyou Dave, I have watched a few videos, a lot of connectors to remove haha 

Morning all!

new to the 1 series scene here,

I have a 2008 120d m sport and it needs a rocker cover gaskets replaced. How easy is it to do? im somewhat knowledgable and never done it before. 

thanks all

If you haven't already I would take off and make sure it is clean and operating as it should. Check the hoses are in good condition not cracked or hard. 

Fingers crossed 

Dave

Thankyou,

got to replace the rocker cover gaskets and injector seals as well now, should be fun, never done it before

Hmmm, how did it pass an MOT? Unless they took the DPF/EGR off after MOT? Sounds good for replacing stuff anyway makes your life easier

Dave

Quick update:- the EGR is there but the seller blanked it off at each end.

If you aren't aware look at www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin in the search box it will call up your model. Then search the sections for what you need you will find Exploded drawings showing how stuff is fixed/fitted

It will let you be sure you have the correct part numbers even for any brackets and fasteners

Hope this helps

Dave

The advantage of INPA/ISTA is it also has workshop information.included

Thankyou

I’m assuming they put it on for mot then took it off afterwards. Just need to get both of them and figure out how to fit them

If they haven't coded out warnings and sensors for DPF and EGR the dash warning lights would all be on ?

So you may have a bit of digging to do when you refit stuff

Good Luck 

Dave

They were on, I can reset them in bimmercode

Welcome to the Forum

Good Luck with the reinstatement of EGR and DPF I hope its straight forward for you

Dave

I assume it’s fairly straightforward 

 Codes show relating to the egr and dpf so I assume that no reprogramming has been done. 

I have BimmerCode full version
