Old Bloke syndrome rules buy another fob 🤣🤣 If that lot is confusing enough just wait for AI 🤣🤣 What ever you choose enjoy your Beemer Dave

Morning Dave Welcome to the Forum Did your original seats have Heaters ? The yellow pug I think is seat occupancy sensors for Air bag/Seat belt You could check www.realoem.com for part numbers Dave

Morning Rory Never used either so cant comment on the Card or App I would expect the card to be around the same cost as a Fob so I would buy a Fob. But then I am an old bloke Dave

Morning Dave Welcome to the Forum Can you give a bit more information ?? Is the issue. When driving at constant speed with CC engaged the car selects Neutral and stops? Or When driving at constant speed with CC engaged the car Gear selector shows Neutral but the car continues to drive ? Dave

👍👍

Morning Dee BMW strike again ??? Their standard response is change the complete part at BMW New price ??? BMW do not make Turbo Chargers they buy them in Talk to a Turbo specialist they will be a much better bet as they actually fix issues. They will also be very aware of any known issues Dave

I have heard of Dealerships (and I know they can vary even within Groups) of Dealerships who are unhappy to touch anything that is "not BMW OEM Supply" and insist on replacing parts "to ensure it is correct" Hope fully your Dealer is one of the good ones, Replacing the struts and their fixings plus alignment Dave

Morning Alex I hope it is under warranty (though as someone else has touched it the Dealership will duck responsibility) Also remember BMW do not repair anything they replace parts complete, get ready for a £2k min estimate 😁 If the original garage replaced the dust cover on the strut my guess is they didn't put it back correctly and some thing is out of alignment Dave

For the Disc yours will be CCC, CiC versions the maps were downloaded just check which version Professional High etc in realoem then Google your needs. Take a look at Satnav Upgrades they have been around for years With the disc remember a disc labelled 2023/24 the maps will be older not bang up to date like digital maps Dave

Morning Boz Welcome to the Forum Bluetooth: First check www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box and it will bring up your model. Then search the sections for which Telematics unit is in your car and note the part number and where it is in the car. Then take a look if it's missing it answers a lot of your questions (why it was taken out who knows) Then search with the part number to find a replacement fitting is plug and play. Then in settings on the screen you should find bluetooth set it to search and the phone should be found then connect. Angel Eyes: Back to realoem for information on bulbs Good Hunting Dave P.S. Just a thought if someone has changed the screen you should be able to find the correct one or even a Complete Android update straight forward to fit and gives far more than the OEM unit plus still allowing you to switch between the two with the rotary controller

Morning Paul If TIS isnt telling me porkies 😂 Passenger side behind the Glove box flap Top Row left hand end you can check the relay and fuse Good Luck Dave

Morning Chris Welcome to the Forum Tasty motor Enjoy The Monitor I believe is just that so may have been changed earlier in it's life. You could check a BMW Vin Decoder that will give the build sheet so you know what was fitted at build/order Then use www.realoem.com to get correct part numbers if your looking to replace/upgrade the screen Dave

Engine out job and full strip to save it sounds like your wallet will need some intensive care Good Luck Dave

My E53 has the same Battery, registering just regulates charging so I would check voltage at the under bonnet charging points Should be 12v+ (min) ignition on engine off 14v+ engine running. Quick thought is it registered as AGM which I believe yours will be? Is the IBS lead in the boot in good condition Good Hunting hope it's a simple fix Dave

Morning Korso Welcome to the Forum I fear I am going to be no help here I had a similar issue with Spotify Android Auto connects fine but with me it was Spotify. App Logo came up and then screen asked me to Login. So clicked on login and tried it wouldn't let me message said Account in use? I tried everything I could think of including Deleting the App and reloading it, changing passwords Nothing. My head unit is an Android unit (not BMW) I even tried downloading it direct to the car. Still couldn't get past the login For a couple of months I didn't use it then mid January I tried it and it worked and as far as I know still is. Good Luck if you find a solution let us know Dave

Why not put this in the FOR SALE Section ??

Morning Stephen Welcome to the Forum I was going to say battery (then read your post again) have you checked the Power Post under the bonnet is that tight? Otherwise it is a Diagnostic session Dave

Morning Get the starter motor checked if you can hear whirring it sounds as though the starter is turning but not engaging Dave

Wait until they add AI and the damn things start thinking for themselves 🤣🤣🤣 Can't wait 😂 Enjoy your Beemer Dave

Morning Paul It wouldn't be a proper BMW if it didn't act weird now and then. First thought sticking starter relay ? Dave

Morning Alex Welcome to the Forum Oo er never really thought about this before Try looking at www.realoem.com in the trim section (I think) it may help or Pictures of an M135 for clues You could also ask BMW Customer Services or a really good Body Shop Sorry that's all I can think of Dave

Well Done Rory My E53 still doesn't but I am used to it now 😂

Hi Steve I wouldn't think so. the low pressure pump in the tank should push fuel through to the high pressure pump which should be self bleeding Dave

Morning Jack Not sure why you posted in 2 sections Sadly the advice is the same First you say it's not turning over ? Is the starter motor turning the engine over but not starting ? Second When you look through the oil cap you wouldn't see the Timing chain as they are at the rear of your engine Third You say you had a replacement engine fitted 14 months ago what condition was it in/where did it come from Your engine has an upper and lower timing chain to change both is an engine out job so major work. If either chain is broken and the engine turned over damage will be caused to the cylinder head If you are not capable of doing it yourself then you need the help of a good Garage Dave
