Ah cool - I should really read the manual some time.

Its the wifes car she doesnt pay any attention to the dash

Yet another electrical problem!

When I put my side lights on the drivers side front light is fine but on the passenger side no side light but my indicator comes on (stays on - not flashing)

Anyone known this?

Interesting! I must admit I did think there might be more to it than they say. Dont think I will tackle it with my sausage fingers. I would have thought postage costs (including adequate insurance) would be high - anyone posted one? Plus anyone know of anywhere in cheshire/manchester that repairs ...

Had this problem on my E90. The sensors are quite pricy from BMW. I bought a set of 4 off ebay secondhand for a fraction of the cost and I had spares!

Ha! Yeah.

New battery has arrived - for £85 its well worth fitting - hopefully this will do the trick.

Radio module has also been removed and will go for repair - again hopefully all works well when refitted.

You cant just leave it at that!

Have mine to do so yes please tell!

Had this problem myself - most tyre fitters have a socket that grips the nut without key. Replaced them with 4 normal studs!

No way of telling how old battery is. No date on it and I have only had car 6 months or so

Cheers peeps

Sounds good. Look forward to getting it on and hopefully no more probs.

Ordered that but just noticed it says Audi a4 - is thi the correct one?

That's great cheers for finding that have been looking at the Bosch one which seems a good upgrade.
Will get one ordered and go from there.

Update It's been non stop rain so not had chance to do the checks. Went out yesterday morning and car was completely dead. So put battery on charge overnight. Have also removed radio module as this needs to go for repair. This morning refitted battery and took it to kwikfit for test. They said ...

Cheers
What's strange is it seems to be fine for a while then fails to start. All connections seem fine.
Don't have a eurocarparts but will ring round see what prices I get.

Was thinking of removing the radio module anyway as this needs to go for repair as this needs to be eliminated.

Not really what i wanted for xmas! 2002 X5 (E53) 3.0 Sport This problem may have been running for a while. My blower has always played up and on occaisons would just pack in. Anyway a few weeks back I awoke to a flat battery. Searching on here it seemed that the FSR was at fault so this was replaced ...

Cheers for replies.

The Aux In then as fitted seems useless?

AS for the retrofit option - does this have to take the place of the cd changer? And does it give full track names on screen and ipod control via steering wheel/headunit?
