  1. BMW 1 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 1 Series
    Hello all, Apologies if this is in the wrong place or a silly question. But... picked up my 69 plate 1 Series M-Sport last week that has a reversing camera. This is my first BMW, and the car I had previously (Vauxhall) had a rear-view camera and a birds-eye view camera which I used all of the...
  2. BMW 1 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 1 Series
    Hi guys, I bought a BMW 1 series yesterday only realised last night when I parked up that the reversing camera isn’t giving a video feed. I get guide lines and obstacle warnings beeps but nothing else. I can turn on the camera set the brightness etc. Anyone else had this issue? Updated...

  4. BMW X Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of X Series
    I have just bought a 2016 X1. On pulling away from being stationary I have noticed a very slight groan when the electronic parking brake automatically disengages - is this normal? There is no noise when using the brake pedal or reversing from stationary. Am I just being concerned over nothing?

    Has anyone else had iDrive complain about parking light failure when everything is actually ok? It’s been doing it on and off for a while but recently is more and more adamant that my front left parking light is out. I’ve checked and rechecked everything and all is well, all bulbs are working...
  6. BMW 5 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 5 Series
    One of the front PDC sensors on my E61 recently threw a wobbler and caused the system to throw a fault. I replaced it with a genuine used BMW part but, while it works and the fault no longer appears in iDrive, it constantly thinks there is an object 46cm from the bumper even when there’s nothing...

    Hi Geniuses, I hope you are all well. I was wondering if there was a way to replace a parking sensor on my 320CD without having to remove the whole bumber? I have one faulty sensor that has made my whole system stop working. so looking to replace the faulty one, but i keep seeing that i have...

    Hi all, Is there a way of manually releasing the hand brake on an F11 520d? The car is stuck on my drive and I am not even able to get it to a garage. Your help is greatly appreciated.

    Hoping someone can shed some, ah-hem, "light" on this. Both front left AND front right parking lights are not working. I'm getting feedback from the IDrive system that it requires attention. All other lights working fine. I thought this would be an easy fix by replacing the bulbs. however...

    So I bought a 2015 bmw 1 series. It came with the comfort pack so has rear parking sensors that are activated by putting the vehicle into reverse. I also have front sensors but I can't seem to work out how to activate them. I don't have a button either. Could the BMW dealer have removed...

    Hello forum, hoping one of you clever people may be able to help Parking sensors were working well (recently replaced front passenger side sensor after diagnostic said that was faulty) The other day was reversing off the drive, a car went past and the rear sensors bleeped as it went past...

    Hi all I have a BMW 320d 2010 M sport Lci. The car was parked up for a few months and had a flat battery. Ever since, the rear parking sensors and reverse lights have not been working. There is no noise at all from parking sensors(no clicking either). I changed both reverse bulbs but that did...

    Hey all, recently replaced 2 parking sensors on my 320ci m sport. All click fine now but upon opening inpa I can see that the 2 sensors I replaced are recognised but do not give readings, the sensors I got were from a local car parts supplier and as such I can get a refund as the clearly are...

    Hi guys Randomly my parking light came on along with a P warning sign on the dash does anyone know what caused this?
  15. BMW 3 Series Forum - Technical Talk on the BMW E46
    Posted this in the general forum but got no bites so I'll try here. Is it worth spending the money on genuine BMW rear parking sensors or are the cheaper ebay ones ok? I only ask because there is a massive difference in price and a mate of mine paid a lot less than the cost of 1 genuine sensor...

    It seems that the act of removing my rear bumper, along with disconnecting the parking sensors, and then refitting it has caused two of the rather knackered looking sensors to fail. Looking online there is a massive difference in price between genuine BMW and the alternatives? Are genuine BMW...
  17. BMW 5 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 5 Series
    Hi 525D E60 LCI. The handbrake wont pull up, or it does but ratchets straight back down. I understand there is a spring behind the press button that tensions the ratchet to stop this. Looking on ebay I can buy replacement handles with leather gaither but they do not have the button. Makes me...
  18. BMW 3 Series Forum - Technical Talk on the BMW E46
    Hi all, Recently purchased my e46 and it's a joy to drive. When placing the car into reverse I heard a long continuous beep, which stopped after a few seconds. Did some research and diagnosed 2 faulty sensors. After replacing both sensors there is no longer the beep, so no error right? Well...

    Hi. I’ve just replaced a rear parking sensor on my F10 which wasn’t working. Brand new sensor is still the same. Anything else that could cause this apart from the wiring ? Wiring looks in good condition as far as I can see Thanks
  20. BMW 5 Series - Tech Talk For All Gen Of 5 Series
    Hi All, I've owned my 2012 GT 530d for 2 months now, very happy with it but twice in that time, the electronic parking brake has disengaged - a bit of an issue as my parking slot is a downwards slope.... Fortunately, the transmission brake held it on both occasions. When I unlocked the car...
