Just keep checking all the usual places...one will pop up if you have time and not in a hurry....


Yes, not in a big hurry. Its basically the press car look. I'll keep my eyes peeled! I have seen them come up n the past, but they always seem to be missing one of the specs. Pan roof and heated ...

Hi guys, been out of the X game for a few years. But I want back in! I’ve always liked the e83 X3 in SE form. I now think it’s the perfect car for me. Kids are a bit older so need less space. I think they look great!

Anyway, I’m a spec junky. Anyone know of a full spec car? What are the chances of ...

Hi guys, managed to do it! It was those tabs that were the issue. So you can use video 1 for all the bolts to undo (annoyingly there is no mention of these tabs!!), and video 2 mentions the tabs, 1.15secs in.

You need a flat pry tool, just lever the gap between the bumper and the wing, you'll see ...

Thanks ttr, appreciate it.

Funny you should say that, it feels most stuck on at the front corners where the bumper meets the wing. I will have a go at it later and report back!

Hi guys,

I have tried 3 times now using the guide on here and this one:

The front bumper just won't come off. I have removed all the bolts listed in this YT video apart from 1 thats too rusty under the front valance. Surely I could still lever it off a ...

What do you get when you press VEHICLE? As for the OBC mileage time changing resetting mpg, all that stuff you will need to plug inn the old head unit to reset so basically if you want to be able to do that you'll have to keep the old HU. To big for glovebox so it would be plug in ...

I realise I can't reset my OBC, MPG etc now. I wonder if there is a hack for that??

Finally got it sorted:

I drove up to the midlands to have the work done. So far very pleased with the overall result. The reversing camera is a god send as my parking sensors are faulty!

My nav was in this state:

I agree with out knowledgeable friend...
I have just ONE front corner sensor not working & the whole lot are buggered as a result.
Conveniently its a front outer :-( ... so its bumper off when the sun shines again....

I may try to make some kind or retro fit that ...

Successfully fitted the new rear sensor. Did the test, all 4 are clicking now. Still not working! :blink:

I've not done the front one due to the bumper off situation for front. Rears should work though? Could it be something else?

If its not the sensors and something else, would one of those cheap ...

Feel at the base of the sensor housing ( inside the bumper space ) pull the tab downwards and away from the sensor.
It should all come loose and allow the sensor and outer housing to come towards the outer side

Brilliant, thanks Horizon, I'll give that a go. Do you know ...

Hi guys,

I have searched the forum but can't seem to find exactly what I need. Hope someone can help.

1. Is there a knack to removing the outer side rear sensors? I have taken the cover off where the 4.4 exhausts would go, reached in, uplugged the sensor but can't remove it. Is there a special ...

If it’s possible can you see whether they run the long cable from the boot down the passenger or driver side, and take a few pics of your DAB aerial, gps aerial and microphone. You may as well blow the budget and go for the TV ...

Have had the N7 fitted for some time, TV is very good, DAB is excellent, I fitted a roof mounted aerial, nightmare to do, 3 skin layers on the roof trying to drill through two layers with a bigger hole than the final one through the roof was nerve racking as you only really get one ...
