Evening all, My sat nav seems to only work intermittently. Sometime I start the car and all is well. Drive to somewhere, stop and when I restart the car again all I get is "please wait" message come up. It's really bizarre. It all started after I disconnected the battery to replace the steering ...

Are my tyres dangerous?
Hi guys and gals, Picked up my X5 a week ago and am loving it. Popped the X into Kwik Fit to have the air con regassesd and they called me out to look at the rear tyres.

Re: Which years have digital tv?
Thanks for all the info guys.
Definitely not a deal breaker if car has it or not. Just a bonus if it dose, prob wouldn't use it very often anyway, lol!

Which years have digital tv?
Hi guys,
Looking at getting a facelift e53 3.0d (prob 2004/5)
Can anyone tell me what year the head units switched with digital tv receiver?
I'm guessing around 2004, but anyone have a definite answer?
Thanks
James
