    Hello, The stereo in my car stopped working so I brought a second hand one off eBay and it works fine but there's no sound, does this mean it needs coding? If it needs coding does anyone know anywhere around Birmingham/West Midlands that can sort it? My car: BMW E91 320d M Sport Touring 2009...

    Hi all To cut a long story short, I have a base Stereo system (4 door speakers, 2 under seat woofers, no tweeters, no amp) and I am in the market to upgrade to a semi decent system with an amp. I have the NBT HU thankfully. I see there is a harness that can be bought in the US that allows you...

    I'm new to Bmws and have never really bothered changing the ice in the car until now. I'm thinking a double din. At the moment halfrauds have a kit with double din facia and (it claims) all the associated wiring harness to make everything work for £125. Just the unit to find after. Is this a...

    Okay so I've done abit of research but many answers contradict each other on this topic. I want to fit my Bluetooth stereo into my e34. At the moment it has the standard stereo. At first I thought it would be a simple case of buying an adapter and plug in and play! But from what I gather it's...

    I'm having a few electrical problems with an E61 525 I recently bought. There are three issues which I think might be linked. I'd be hugely greatful for any advice! 1. Neither of my keys work remotely. I have tried pretty much all the internets suggestions; re-initialising, changing batteries...

    My BMW320i E90 2009 Alpine Professional stereo recently died on me. I was told (without any examination) that they are un-repairable as our local dealer doesn't do the repairs on stereos, and no circuit diagrams are available. A new one costs €732 locally, and the local dealership then asked for...
