Hi all, I've owned my 1999 2.8L BMW Z3 for almost 2 years and it appears to have developed a parasitic battery drain problem. The car has been faultless during my ownership barring the central locking not working on the driver's door, but I've never been fussed by this. I don't drive the car...

Hello everyone, 1st time posting. Ok, so about 2 months ago i bought my first e46, love it, but my remote locking never worked. I did my research, apparently tourings are cursed and the wires in the tailgate loom always break, took mine apart and found multiple broken wires. Fixed them and i...

Hi All, I've searched high and low and a number of BMW forums for guidance on my issue without success. I recently bought an E30 which had been off the road for some time but came from my friend with MOT. After connecting the battery, a short trip to the petrol station and back, I locked it...
