Hello, I’m about to make a purchase decision: a BMW 316d Touring (115 hp) with no additional extras from 2011 as well as a V50 DRIVe Business Edition with Xenon from 2012. Both have run about 20,000 km and so are around 19,000 euros. I drove both cars test. The driving performance is roughly comparable and sufficient for me. The suspension of the BMW is very good and relatively tight. The V50 is more comfortable designed. The V50 offers a little more space in the trunk and is more family-friendly equipped (integrated children’s seats, racks). In terms of consumption, both should be about the same. Taxes and insurance are slightly cheaper with the V50. I drive about 15,000 km per year and intend to drive the car 8 – 10 years. What do you think, also with regard to expected follow-up costs, normal wear?

Hello, once again a new problem: I have the battery jammed with the backend during the charging procedure to protect all the control units from overvoltage. now after attaching the battery the error message “SRS Airbag maintenance condition” and the red airbag light. am friendly, which cannot delete the error, says, will probably be a mistake in the airbag control unit which must be exchanged if a previous software upload does not manage any help. cost 600-700 €. airbags are currently except operation according to workshop master. in juni I have tuev and that will probably not find that funny when there are all the lamps lights. so now the question what I can do for myself….can I pull off the plug connections of the control unit without continuing and plug up again? I would like to have to check the plug connections of the last one before I can exchange a control unit which may not fix the noise of the workshop. but as soon as the control unit can not be broken on the propriety is also the propriety device.

Good evening, I urgently need a Navi and have found a few nice candidates there, which are certainly great to use as a stand-only solution. However, I would like to use more than just the actual Navi software as an Iphone user. Therefore the following questions: 1. Can each Navi be connected to the HP radio invisibly, so that the music goes quiet when something is announced, and so that the announcements come over the normal speakers? 2. Since I would have my Iphone connected to the Navi Bluetooth over it. 2.1. Can I then run the conversation also over the normal speakers? 2.2. Can I then let the music on the connected Iphone play via the Navi, on the radio? A few helpful answers would be great. Thank you so much,

Hello dear people, I have recently bought an S40 2 and I am not quite sure if the consumption of speech is so correct. I return about 23 km of work every day and I expect generously 100 km of the weekend. So I arrive every week at a mileage of 215 km. Now I have the experience, however, to have to refuel after about 7 days already. The on-board computer would have to display with full tank around the 620 km range, that would mean that I have to refuel already after a third of the journey distance and that seems funny to me etws. Do I not get there with my invoices completely or play the car a prank? According to board computer I consume on average between 10.1 and 10,5l to 100 km. So something goes on there. And if that happens, what causes could have such an enormous fuel consumption`? What have you done for experiences on the topic 2.4i and fuel costs ? I thank for any resonance and leave with kind regards to your Ingo 🙂

Hi, I have a little problem with my V50 D5 MJ2010 and I hope someone has already experienced similar things. Some time ago caught power loss has (quasi emergency run program; max. 160kmh + only felt 100 hp). I was at the friendly. There was probably a mistake in the electronic control of the vortex valve reported -> component replaced without the mechanics (~700 euros). After that he ran again some time, however, it slowly started again with the power failures. D.h. sporadically, sometimes full power, then nix again. Sometimes a turn off/on of the engine improved. Then I came back to the friendly. Diagnosis there: Calibration lost. The vortex valve itself is clean, rung, and the mechanics itself should be also in order. He has put everything back and meant it could only be an electronic problem. After some time the problem occurred again. Before I now run back again: Has anyone an idea what that could be? I have noticed that the wipes for the xenonlights could not work out again for the other time. Could not have a repeat for the laptop.

I’m thrilled that our V50 elk is seriously injured in the recovery facility and was spent there by a tow truck equipped with yellow lights. This morning 8 o’clock: the OHL and my littleness head towards the office, park on the main road in a park bay with the direction of the road beaten wheels to lift the necessary capital at the Bankinstitut to buy his food.- Just get in from behind comes a truck, which drove so far to the right, that he took the mirror to the front left to strip the fender, to hit the rim with full force so that the whole Fzg. was moved to the right and finally to tear down the whole front fret (Stocksstand ect..). Afterwards the elk bled and gave off his sweat, which he normally needs to cool down. The guilt question is solved, however, the workshop already determined that the axle had gotten off and the front car was pulled off. At the time it is not clear whether the patient came through, even if Fred was looking for a bad tooth.

Hello all, Had the question already asked in another thread, but unfortunately did not really get any further: Is there a way to program the pig launcher cleaning via VIDA DICE so that the headlights are not cleaned when the windscreen washer is first activated, but only the fifth time when the light switch is in position “0”? With me it is like already posted in general so that the headlights (Bi-Xenon) are always cleaned when the first press is activated. Thank you and greeting famai

Hello, for some time now my turbo makes fluttering noises. The sound resembles this Fast and the Ferious sounds, at the beginning I found it kind of funny, but now I worry that it hurts the turbo. The sound arises when you go under load from the gas. The best described can be described as a Chu tu tu tuuu. Somewhere in my back of mind I think of a broken blow of, but does the small 1.6 diesel have one at all? If so and where would it be possible to find it? Repair feasible? Cost? In addition, my turbo has always lost some oil for a long time, but it always kept in limits and by annual oil change I never had to pour oil. By the way, the car has now already 240000 kilometers on the clock. I hope someone can help me with the problem. Greetings from Hessen
