Hi all from a newbie
Hi all from a newbie
Just to say hello and introduce myself I'm Gaz from Nottinghamshire and I brought a 2002 e53 3.0 sport two days ago and I'm very happy with it, it does have a few issues with it though which I would like to fix all the pixels are dead on the mid and dash, the front corner PDC doesn't work, and it needs a new passenger side front door looks like some one reversed into it so hoping there is some breakers on here. Here is a pic of it


E53 3.0i sport, acs foot pedals, acs handbrake lever, acs titanium door handles mirror and fog light inserts, Remus quad exhaust, tinted Windows & E70 3.0 D pretty standard at the mo
Re: Hi all from a newbie
Welcome aboard. There's a thread in the problems or how to section regarding dead pixels. PDC sensor replacement is a bumper off jobbie unfortunately on the fronts. For the door, eBay is one source or somewhere like fabdirect.

Pixels fix info if you click here
PDC is a case of swap for new if it's just the one and connected properly.
Cant comment on the dent without seing it but paintless dent removal can yield good results if paint not broken, metal not creased , dent not too big and access to repair not an issue.
Welcome btw
