Urgent help needed!! Being asked for a code!!!

Post by j2d » Sat Jun 11, 2011 4:21 pm

The battery was flat on the X5 this morning so stuck it on charge, just went out to try and start it and a CODE screen is coming up! and I can't start it until I enter the CODE!

I've looked through all my bits and I can't find this code.

I've had the X5 nearly 2 years now i've never needed to enter a CODE before.

Someone please help

John

Mine did this a couple of weeks ago. Came up asking for a code on the nav screen. On mine i entered 4 x 0's in vain,but no luck ! There was an option to deactivate on screen,i pressed this and hey presto it worked simple as that.

+1 with that feeling. Happened a few months ago and so just entered the zeros out of desperation and hey presto. Damn lucky if you ask me as we were on our way out and would have been killed else.
