It was Bosch s5 type 019 i think i put in my old 2002 x5 about 6 years ago.

Electric steering column not working

The Range Rover one is the one i got for mine half the price of one from a BMW.
Didn't pay a lot for it from that auction site we all know.

Assistance with Ride Height Sensors

Strange one.
Never had a problem with the height just one sensor failed.
Changed it and all was well after.

Assistance with Ride Height Sensors

What are you scanning it with.
I bet it's not bmw kit is it.
Have a look in realoem for the parts and numbers.
I am sure my car only has 2 of them at the rear but mine is a very old one so could be wrong.

Transmission code 07EC on x5 sd e70

I don't think it is the rev's as much as the trip.
I take my other car on a run once a month if it has been doing short runs.
I drive 15/20 minutes outbound then return and when checking the dpf levels it looks to be enough.

locking wheel nuts

A lot of garages have sockets to remove them.
I get 4 new bolts if i get a car with them on and get rid of the locking they are a royal pain.

Electric steering column not working

Do the mirrors move at all when you select a different memory button.
The memory panel/control failing will also stop the steering adjustment from working.
When you set the memory buttons up they will remember seat mirror and steering positions.
