Ceaking dash cover.

My wifes E84 X1 has a creaking dashboard. It seems to be on the passenger side top part. The car is rhd btw. Is it a simple matter to remove the dash cover and see what's amiss? It's worse in hot weather, and on bumpy road surfaces. Not the end of the world, the car is 13 years old, but if it's ...

2011 X1 towbar wiring problem.

I bought the dedicated ecs wiring loom from P F Jones and it was a very simple job, four wires to splice, two of which had a ready made wiring point. I only needed to cut into the brake light wiring and the rh indicator circuit (Puzzled me too, but it works). The ready made points were for left and ...

2011 X1 towbar wiring problem.

Wow! Thanks for the quick replies.
I'm guessing the module fits under the removable tub on the right hand side? I can see two plugs going into a white module. Looks like one of them is plugged to the parking sensors? Does the towing harness module replace this?

Roger from Margate, UK saying hi.

I recently bought my wife a 2011 XI S drive.
She's very pleased with it, and I must say I'm more than pleased with it too.
It has a few minor issues, but it's a 13 year old car. I'll post questions about them in the appropriate sections.

2011 X1 towbar wiring problem.

Hi, newbie Roger from Margate, Kent. I'm in the process of fitting a towbar to my wifes S drive X1. All has gone well, bumper off - no problem, bumper bar - easy, tow bar on - simples! Now I want to connect the wiring. I understand Westfalia make a dedicated harness that plugs straight into the ...
