Hi Char...

Hi Jim, Will do after supper when and when i find my torch, thanks very much. Matthew.

Hi Jim, I thought you meant this but wasn't to sure, but very good description. Would the chassis number be ok for ID and where would i find it on the car? Matthew.

Hi Jim, Thanks for your response.... Some terminology i don't understand underline, please advise for the "not with it" person such as I! 2004 is an update query year so best advice is to ask if you take her into Stealers OR gimme your VIN and I'll check ! Maybe midweek before I use "Main" pc though ;)

Hi Jim, Thank you very much for the very quick response. My car has a flat battery at the moment therefore i cannot hear if there is a hum at the centre console. Just one other thing that springs to mind, "swirl flaps" and the horror story attached to them. Would my car have them installed? Regards, Matthew.

Hi All, New to this site. My name is Matthew and i live in Wimbledon, London. I year ago i purchased a year 2000 530d and now i am starting to have a few problems. Could some of you please advise me on the following issues before i take it in to my local garage and have my bank account emptied!! 1. Whilst driving down the motorway and want to over take, i accelerate, not too hard. I loose power and a yellow warning sign comes up on the dash. This is a broken circle with arrows and an exclamation mark in the middle flashes very quickly on and off. (Via telephone, the garage thinks it's corroded ABS rings on the back wheels) 2. The battery drains within 7 days. This is a new battery by the way. There is a very small light which stays on after i switch of the ignition, which is next to the auto shift lever. (Via telephone, the garage thinks that the computer is not shutting down) I know this would be the best place to get advice, so fingers crossed for some answers, please. Thanks in advance, Matthew.
