akapjay 41 Report post Posted October 16 Reconnected the E36 battery to start the day. Went a little like this: E36 > Silverdale Bus station > CBD office > Wiri CDG Depot > X5 to Hamilton > Huntly > Epsom > Home > E91 to pick up E36 > cool wee pic of the midlife crisis mobile and family travel wagon together. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dln 10 Report post Posted October 19 Meant to take some pics, but got in mission mode ... 2008 E82 135i. Shift lever to the left no longer engaged sport/manual mode. Internet says broken wire in the gear shift loom so... Centre console out - YouTube saved me some breakage when I thought it should come out but wasn't - under dash covers on both sides hold the front in... Release loom from stupid factory location that flexes with each movement, strip back sticky tape on loom. Sure enough, two disconnected ends looking at me. Strip, twist, tape and re-position to reduce flex. Reassemble console, testing function prior to buttoning up. Nothing broken or missed or left over. Spirited drive to confirm/celebrate. Win.
