    If you diagnose incorrectly or the part you source fails prematurely you have no comeback.

     

     

    Yes the owner does Nathan. You can't contract out. That's why sensible repairers will only diagnose the faults and supply parts for the repair themselves. It becomes a sh*t fight if it turns tits up and the repairer gets bad feedback for doing it. I'd rather read a book and have a few coffees and watch the grass grow than get into that situation . 99% of getting an effective repair done properly is diagnosing the repair properly first and then using quality parts to effect that repair in a timely fashion.

    If not a battery issue, I would suggest you have a faulty CAS control unit system failure. You will need to get it scanned by someone close to you . I don't know who you can tow it to close by in Whitianga though.

    Common faults:

    Keys, key reader, steering lock and the control unit itself. But you'll have to start with getting it scanned first.

    It's possible that the drivers door lock barrel which is not working and needs to be replaced anyway is holding the drivers door module in a lock or unlock position. This will be preventing initializing the keys impossible because the central body control module is not getting the right signal from the drivers door lock which should be in a neutral position. This is not an easy job to do. You may need help with this. It maybe time to get a professional to look at this for you and check with the appropriate scanner to check module live data signals.

    Does the boot lock and unlock with the key and work with the interior lock switch ?

    Hi B.M.W Ltd.

    Not really sure I'm sorry I'm not a pro mechanic I'm just a dirty chef lol.

    But if I find anything that I need or use any tools/equipment I'll list up all with more details.

    I strongly suggest that you do quite a bit of researching on this repair before you start ripping it apart. Some "mechanics" would struggle to do this repair properly

    Went for a drive in the Brother Inlaws 2019 Beast in the weekend. Absolutely amazing. vehicle. I've never been so thrilled and scared at the same time with the performance and superb handing. I can't say where , what and how quick. Pity it's limited to 250kph ? The technology in this vehicle is amazing

    BM Parts has the hengst oil cartridge filters for my E90 for around $12 trade. The ryco are rediculous. $40 or some sh*t. 

    They are what we used on all Euros unless they were still under new vehicle  warranty
