Massive dilemma

Evening folks I've had the SOS call system malfunction error appear after the battery was disconnected when i had the injectors replaced just before christmas. It was booked into my local stealer today to see if they could reset/resolve. Even though i've got no other issues they say the bluetooth mo...

neutral and stall at speed

Evening folks Had a very odd problem driving home this evening. I've had a look on a few X5 forums and its been seen before but no one seems to have a resolution. Driving up a slip road to join a dual carriage way, i was under acceleration, it may have even kicked down and i had no power. No warning...

Re: Day two of owning my first x5 and confused

Hadn't thought about that Horizon. I've always had one phone for both. I'm gonna take the dash out and remove the Nokia kit. I'm assuming it's all ISO leads and connectors back there?

Happy new owner

Hi all Recently returned to BMW ownership after a brief break with a VW bus. Had a Z4 and 330d previously and treated myself to a 2008 3.0SD M sport in black. Absolutely loving it, its an utter beast of a car. I was very active on the VW T5 forum and did loads of mods so i'm keen to get cracking. Adie

Re: Day two of owning my first x5 and confused

That's the point. The built in one works perfect and all your contacts appear as you'd expect and all the steering wheel controls work perfectly. The Nokia one is simply a dial and it rings. I've taken the centre vents out and taken the controller and wires out and hidden the roof mike. I wasn't fee...

Day two of owning my first x5 and confused

Morning folks I've owned a few beemers in my time and I'm happy to be back again after a spell in a custom VW T5. I've had a Z4 and a 330d so I was very keen to get back to the 3litre diesel world. I got myself a 3.0 sd m sport 2008 a few days ago and I'm confused! It's been fitted with a Nokia car ...
