Hey Everyone

Posted this in my New Member post, but I can see this place might be the better place to put it

Our new BMW has.. no Audio at all.. be it from the Radio.. or leaving the Key in.. or leaving the lights on.. or anything at all. From my searches I can see it's possibly because there looks to have been an old satnav? unit or something in the boot that has some spare connectors/cables hanging out.. and one of them possibly needs a "fiber optic loop bypass" connected to it? 

From my understanding it wont be the amp.. as I don't think our layout has an amp? (2 speakers in front.. 2 spakers under seats.. and 2 speakers in rear)

At a bit of a loss of what to do 😕

Cheers

Hey Everyone

So we picked up this lovely 2006 E325i in the weekend (To replace a car that will be in the garage for who knows how long) .. We kinda brought it as a temp car with the thought of selling it again once we get the other back.. however... have come to LOVE how it drives.. so might need to hold onto it :D

However I have some issues/questions regarding it. Hopefully someone might be able to help or put me in the right direction. :)

1) No Audio at all.. be it from the Radio.. or leaving the Key in.. or leaving the lights on.. or anything at all. From my searches I can see it's possibly because there looks to have been an old satnav? unit or something in the boot that has some spare connectors/cables hanging out.. and one of them possibly needs a "fiber optic loop bypass" connected to it?

2) Only have 1 key.. what is the best (cheapest) option in getting another one ?

3) Is there anything we can do in the Display re Navigation/TV etc etc etc?  (I might be dreaming, but would be cool to have some sort of Android conversion :D)

4) Is there anything else nz specific/ex jap things that we need to look out for or can improve? Most the things I have read seem to be US specific which is not much help.

5) What are most people doing for spare tyres/space savers etc.. ?? (First time owning a car without one)

Thanks heaps !

Oh and of course.. some pics :)
