erico2k2:

your transmission has its own brain box,was that the one you changed?

Thank you...the whole transmission itself was changed and after changing it, the car will drive normal but after about 3 to 4 minutes of driving, the limp mode star light will come up again. They said it was transmission brain box that was causing the star light to come up but we tried two different transmission brain boxes on it and same thing happened. The car was scanned again and the result was 'selector -level position 3 open' ....selector - level positions 1 2 and 4 were closed.

I think it's an electrical fault. The rewire says he'll check to see if all the wires connecting to the transmission are working. If they do not come up with a solution the mechanic will have to fix another transmission.

check wiring to the opening ports and all its circuit, there lies ur trouble, nothing else.

Hi,
Does anyone know where one can get the BMW Navigation DVD for Nigeria (or even if it exists!) All I'm seeing on ebay/amazon are mostly Europe and North America DVDs, though I've seen a couple of Southern Africa DVDs too.

I have an E70 2007 imported from the states and would like to install the navigation map for Nigeria.

Thanks

Please house I need your kind and quick response to my issue.

My e46 drink a lot of water, normal temperature but the coolant icon indicating shortage of coolant kept upon on which I will fill up with almost 2liters at 2-5km interval.

what may be the likely problem and solution.

thanks

How reliable is the '11 BMW E90 335i manual? And what are the common issues?..Uboma

I have not driven this model but all BMW cars are reliable.


Make sure not to buy one that has been abused.


Tell me, what car(s) do you presently own?

If this is going to be your first car, my advise is, forget this and get one with a smaller engine....

Hello everyone!

This is my first post on this forum, I only read post for many years but I didn’t register but I finally did. Post on here triggered me to purchase a BMW 525i 2007 6 cylinder. I have been a Toyota user for many years but I’m tired of seeing beautiful features in other cars under my car age performing speechless.

I’m a lover of fast cars’ turbos, to be honest I have played bunch of car race on ps4 ordered from amazon. But I don’t know why it took me years for my eyes opening.

Luckily I stumbled on the 525i on corpart Auction site in United State and I make the purchase, but I found out that the oil filter housing gasket and timing cover gasket leak. Which means I have to change gasket, so I proceed further to check for solution on YouTube. It’s just a tiny rubber that need to be replaced that cost just 4$.

I red some post here that warned to stay away from Chinese part. Should I order on eBay shipped from the United State or is there any store that sells original part in Nigeria?

Thank you �

You are right.

We not only discuss BMW, we bond, network and expand our minds...

Congrats bro.
I myself took delivery of a 2007 525i this Saturday (27th Oct. 2018) and I’m just getting used to the car.
It has no serious mechanical or electrical issues except for some abs sensors and others that needs to be replaced.
I’m having issues with the car’s Bluetooth pairing with my phone despite several YouTube tutorials etc all to no avail.
I did the oil and filter change yesterday (Mobil 1) and the difference is quite clear. I’ve used a Honda, Mitsubishi , Mazda and a couple of Toyotas and the difference is quite obvious I must confess.
Since we are in the same ‘ship’ I guess we can be exchanging notes and what have you.
Abi wetin you think?

Hi guys. I trust that our day is going on fine.
I took delivery of my 2007 525i over the weekend. Shipped it in from the USA but I’m having issues connecting my phone to its Bluetooth. The Bluetooth isn’t just responding as I can’t click it on or even search for the phone on the idrive system.
I have tried every trick on YouTube to no avail, I also did the hard reboot and secret menu thing but it’s not yielding.
I also will like to update the vehicle’s map/navigation software to work with/in Nigeria. The vehicle does not have a usb slot or an aux port but it has it displayed on the idrive interface/screen or maybe I’m yet to discover where it is.
I will be appreciative of your kind suggestions and ideas.
Thanks.

Hello all

I just found this page now. Please i need advise because I am worried about purchasing a car. I intend to get a BMW x3 2007 vehicle but I hear alot of negative things about BMW and maintenance so I am scared.

This particular vehicle was bought new and used in US for 6 months, the owner sold it to his brother here in Nigeria who used it for a out a year and wants to sell to me. He loves the car but had to put it for sale cos the engine and gear need to be changed a d he has another vehicle.

My concerns are:

1. How easy is it to maintain such vehicle? I'm in Lagos please.

2. How much do the engine (3.0sl) and gear cost? Where can I get genuine and affordable parts?

3. Is it worth the hassle? He is selling for slightly under 1m but I have to get the engine and gear myself. The car is still clean and I attached some pictures below.

Anyone that can help with this, I'll really appreciate it. Thanks.
