  • M6 F13 Open the flap control permanently?

    Servus! For a week now, I have been the proud owner of an M6 coupé (“Standard” 560 hp version). I like the car very much, but I noticed that the pressure cans stay permanently with the hose pulled off, as a spring presses the flap… Does anyone know here a way to open the flaps permanently? Thank you in advance! ??

  • Engine stutters

    Hello, I drive a 630i convertible built in 2006. At the moment I have quite irregular the problem that the engine has drop-outs ( the car is jerking ). But it only goes a certain time, then also the yellow motor lamp goes on, after some time it runs completely normal again and the motor lamp is out again. The reading did not result in a dial message. I have already replaced the ignition coils and the zünkerzen are checked. Greeting Edmar

  • E65 Facelift – less problems than pre-facelift?

    About the E65 one hears almost only negative, especially in terms of electronics. Has this situation improved with the later Facelift models? Or rather fingers away and directly to the F01? LG

  • Battery maintenance G14 (G15, G16)

    I want to put my M850i convertible for 3-4 months in Malaga in a long term garage. How can I prevent the car from getting a problem with the battery during this time? How does battery maintenance work if you don’t have access to a power outlet?

  • acoustic speed warning & “intelligent safety”

    Hello in the round: Because I picked up a factory new M850i yesterday: Software stand is (I think I remember) 03/2024. At first I had wondered about a sound when I started driving, until I realized that this was apparently a new acoustic speed warning. Then I was surprised that the ring around the intelligent safety button after every start is always green again. When you turn off the vehicle and start driving again -> Button green and acoustic speed warning w This was not the case in my EZ 06/2023 predecessor, and it is totally annoying that you have to press the SET button on the steering wheel for 2 seconds every time you go out to press this acoustic speed warning and then press the intelligent Safety button again to switch it on the display to “Individual” to deactivate the annoying lane stop/lenc assistant. my “old” vehicle was 1:1 identical and I miss it trolleyes: Now my question:Can you code it out od you have a downgrade to an older software stand? Thank you! achso: and if you are offered a software update 03/2024: I wouldn’t click on it for the first time

  • Oil service 5w30 on 0w30 without agreement

    Good day, dear friends I left my car for service at BMW yesterday for an oil service and vehicle check. I got the car, checked it off today and looked at what’s on it in the engine room. 1. The little note in the engine room was from Shell. Meaning that the oil was not original BMW but was filled in by Shell the oil or I get it wrong. 2. The actual topic, my vehicle was up to now always possible on 5w30 Now I see that there is simply 0w30 standing I can’t believe why this happens without agreement easy. Ask for helpful answers. Mfg Ender Budak KFZ ist ein 650IX Gran Coupe 2014

  • Valve shaft seal 650i e63

    Servus together I’m new here in the forum and have the following problem. I bought a 650 for myself about 4 weeks ago yesterday I had the oil service and microfilter done at BMW. When I drove the car home and it was at temperature he suddenly started to stink and smoke blue. ADAC called me cylinder head gasket which could exclude the workshop of my trust by a Co2 test in the cooling water. something to do with the oil change since it started immediately after that never before.They also told me that they can not help me there and I should to BMW. Does someone have an idea what I could do the reperature at BMW I probably can not afford someone alternative ? Is there possibly a cheaper interim solution ? What happens if I continue driving could break even more ? Come from the area Heidelberg and I am very grateful for any help
