Re: Clanking noise from tailgate on X5

No problem. If at first, it doesn't reduce the noise completely, just raise the bump stops up a little more.

Re: Clanking noise from tailgate on X5

I've had this issue. See http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-forums/ ... lgate.html. Needs fine tuning and not 100% yet but a lot better than it was. Hope that helps

Re: Fan not working

The fan has now worked two days in a row, perfectly. Cycling through the temperatures also works. It's a mystery :)

Re: Fan not working

[quote="X5Sport"] Try 'cycling' the air vent controls to force the air through different vents. It could be a sticky vent, or a fan. Is the a/c working properly in terms of temperature?

Re: Fan not working

Wasn't working for 5 days after only doing short 15 min drives.Just done a 3hr drive , and tried it and it's now working fine. Did see somewhere that it could be due to low battery issues.

Fan not working

Hi,

All my front vents have stopped blowing air. The rear vents, top of dash and windscreen vents are blowing air but not the vents towards your face. Anyone ever have a similar issue? Car only just turned 3 yrs old!

Re: M Sport paint chipping: Is it a 20in wheel issue ??

Thanks Lyndono 2010. I just took it to my dealer today who took photos of those areas and has sent it off to BMW warranty office. hopefully they come back to them quickly and approve the repairs. When I mentioned that it's a common problem to the guy at the dealership, he said when he spoke to head ...

Re: M Sport paint chipping: Is it a 20in wheel issue ??

Thanks for that, that's really very helpful! I've actually already managed to get a few small chips right at the front of the bonnet, but I guess it depends on how the film looks on there as to whether i would get it! And also the expense cos I guess BMW would only protect the rear arches and lower ...

Re: M Sport paint chipping: Is it a 20in wheel issue ??

Hi,I've driven 3000 miles in my X5(20 inch wheels) and have noticed some chipping on the front of the rear arches and a bit along the sides at the bottom. Those of you who have had repairs done and film applied by BMW dealers, can I ask what parts they did this for.ie just the rear arches or also ...
