Morning Nightmare

I thought I would take a break this morning and go out and swap over a replacement (Electrochromic) Wing Mirror Glass; bad idea - the old one 'popped' out quite easily however, the replacement didn't and, despite great car levering it out, the glass/liquid was damaged and started to seep out! OK, so ...

Bluetooth Module

Hi All, I'm looking for some advice from more experienced members; I disconnected the Bluetooth Module on my 2004 E53 in an effort to nudge the telephone back into life. Whilst doing so I found that a little water had got into the main connector block and had caused some corrosion and, it appears, a ...

Good Evening

Good Evening All, I have recently become the proud owner of a 2004 in Kalahari Beige! I am a long time BMW fan and have been fortunate to own an E24, E38, E39 and most recently an E46. I have a long list of 'jobs' to complete on the X5 starting with a rather difficult issue with the Bluetooth module ...

Mysterious Key Sized Fob Device

I would be very grateful if anyone could tell me what the 'device' I have used as my Avatar is for, it came with the car but I was not told what it was for?

Many Thanks

Wing Mirror Sizes

Hi, I have recently purchased a 2004 E53 3.0i; although I am very happy there are a couple of more 'cosmetic' items that need attending to! One is the passenger side wing mirror glass, it is the Electrochromic variety and is looking rather sad as it is now 2/3s yellow and 1/3 clear! I have found a ...
