  1. I polished the headights using a fine compound on an orange foam pad, and the problem is now fixed!
  2. Thanks for all the feedback. I will polish the headlights over the weekend and post the results.
  3. Hi, I have sanded both headlights, starting with 400 grit and working my way up to 3000 grit, using a rotary sander. The results are uneven with fogginess along the lower part of the headlight? What could be the reason for this and could you recommend a possible fix? Many thanks.
  4. Thanks mate. I'll probably just work the wrap over the antenna base and cut around it.
  5. Hi, The roof on my car has faded areas, which extend to the "spoiler" section just above the rear glass, and I am looking at vinyl wrapping it as an alternative to repainting. I do not know how to loosen or remove the antenna in order to make the wrap easier. I have attached photos. Would appreciate instructions from somone in the know. Cheers!

    Sorry mate, hope someone else more into coding can help you.

    Hi, It would appear your immobiliser is preventing the car from starting. You will need to synchronise the EWS. *I am NOT an expert, so you will be doing this at your own risk* In INPA, select your engine, then: Shift+F6 - you will see 2 choices, F1 (EWS Start Value Synch) and F2 (EWS Start Value Reset) Try F2 first, and see if a window pops up which allows you to click in it. If no window pops up, try F1 and click the Start button in the pop up window. Then click out all the way. Redo the synch ECU motor you tried earlier. Good luck!!

    After struggling with my "crank, no start" problem for months, I decided to start from scratch. I deleted all the files I had downloaded from various sources and downloaded "Standard Tools" from https://www.bimmergeeks.net/downloads. Opened INPA, Selected "Body", "Car Access System", F6 to activate. Ignore the error message and select OK, "F2 - Sync Motor ECU". Done. Turn off ignition, wait 10 seconds. Turn on ignition, hold breath and press start. Success!! I hope this helps others who may be in the same boat.

    Tried downloading ISTA, but couldn't get it to work. I do have Tool32 and NCS Expert. Could you detail the procedure for either of them to sync the DME and EWS?

    I have unlocked/reset the ELV and the car now cranks when previously it did not. However, it does not start. The error log now says 2F44, which I believe requires the DME and EWS to be synced. This is where I need help, as using INPA to attempt this gives up an error message "IFH-0009 No response from Control unit".

    Any chance you can help with that?

    Hi Andrew, The car would not even crank previously, and now cranks but does not start. I therefore think that the steering lock has been reset. From various other sources it has been suggested that the EWS-DME needs to be aligned. I will code the battery and also download ISTA+ and report.back. Thanks for your input, much appreciated.

    Thanks for the recommendation. However, the car does not start, and I'd like to avoid having it transported there. If there's anyone familiar with INPA who can provide some input as to how I can get get communication with the ECU going, that would be greatly appreciated.
