Planning on stripping it down and figuring out what caused it, only got 83k on it. Just waiting for some warmer weather and lighter evenings.

Disconnected battery for 15 minutes and still no joy.
Disconnected for an extended session, put battery on charge and connected + & - terminals in car together as read that this performed a reset?
Connected it all back and nothing.
I've read that these bmw immobilisers can be a bit of a nightmare. 🤬

Hi All

Put the battery on charge, took everything apart to double check my work.

Hi All
Took my 55 plate TD4 for MOT after 6 weeks off road since failing the last one.
Fixed everything that it failed on last time.
Got a call from the garage to say they abandoned MOT as they think there is an issue with the engine bottom end.
Any advice?
Thanks.

More of a weekend job rather than what I've done today....
Resprayed centre console, fitted new stereo, and added a couple of USB ports.
