A good working  wabasto  heater PLEASE for a x5 30d

You need to say whst vehicle its for and whether you nedd petrol or disel. Unless someone is scrapping a vehicle you're unlikely to get one on here. More chance going to an online breaker

Or go to ebay and type in "bmw webasto" and take your pick. Plenty there

hi got one from ebay but that didnt work just the fan came on, >:(so not happy with that would like to get one
from a trusted person

there's one for sale on the forum

i got two so called working and tested from so called BMW breakers,  these scrappers aint got a clue,  they dont know that it has to be 3c for it to start or if they do they still sell em as working as they cant test em on a scrapped car anyway    they sell with a warranty as they know you will return  after the hassle of fittin it  finding then it dont work and swopping your old one back,
i done that twice  :blink:  fool !

so dont waste your cash, the pcb is likely to be knacked or the glow pin u.s, 

The two i got i have taken apart, tried various part from each and my original and still not got a working one.
Other day 3c    yeee    it started up    2 mins later fuel pump stopped ticking and it shut down.
I say take it apart,  test the glow plug  if its kaput  i have 2 working ones for sale on the buy sell section,  if ok  it could be pcb in which case that Finland fellow tests em for £100 i think he quoted me.

i didnt bother, my last stab at this is i renewed the burner gauze, seller on ebay  so am just waiting for next cold snap.
To anyone thinking of swopping one i recommend a pair of brake pipe flexi compressors,  they fit well over the in out water hoses to the heater and save you losing water.

Hmm thanks for your reply, I've  seen one for £70
so will buy this one and the take my one apart and see whats going on . And if i need some bits i will be back in touch.
Thanks Paul

Just what i did  twice. Best of luck as i still have not suceeded,

The first i did was change the pcb for mine,  still no go,  then i checked and changed the glow pin,  still no go.

This i did twice after i bought a 2nd breakers unit. I am presuming my pcb ok as it starts,  turns the interior fans on and the fuel pump,  the fan spins  , winds up to full speed  then just as your hoping YES    fixed,  it winds down and stops. :xmassad:    all good fun though.
Got then to reset the Webasto by clearing the faults, dont forget that bit or it will never work

Yep very frustrating  >:( >:( >:( >:( but will keep trying
