    Steering wheel adjustment - Broken!!

    Really... Hmmm sounds like a big job and whilst I am fairly good with stuff I don't think I would feel comfortable with messing with something as important as steering. I guess I am looking a few hundred quid in labour for a garage to do it then!! Brill

    Steering wheel adjustment - Broken!!

    I've had a butchers at rave. It details the part and stuff but its not exactly a step by step guide. I have found one for £120 which is a bargain (2004) but I want to know if this is diyable...

    PDC Fault

    Resurrection time.. So I have replaced the PDC control unit with the black unit. All sensors are ticking so apparently working but I still get a constant beep. I have tried cleaning with a damp cloth but they still won't work. Any more ideas?

    I'm reading a lot of conflicting information about the correct oil... Some people say 5w-30 others are saying 5w-40... What do other fellow 4.4 owners use (BMW)...

    Dashboard / Instrument lights

    Most of the places that carry out repairs require you to send in the dash... I'll have a look for a guide cheers

    Dashboard / Instrument lights

    Hi. Looks like a bulb has blown behind the dash as the area that displays the outside temperature is dull where as mileage and trip are bright. Is it a DIY job removing the dash? And where can I buy a new bulb? Cheers
