I’ve recently noticed that if I drive, stop and leave my car for 20mins or so and repeat a few times then sometimes my head unit gets into a rebooting problem where it attempts to boot, freezes with some lines on the display and then starts to boot again. It can stay stuck in this state until I...

Hi all, I am looking to upgrade my e46 325ci from a business cd unit to a more modern day double din unit. My initial thought was to just upgrade the car by fitting the age appropriate sat nav and phone that would be fitted by bmw from new. After trying to source second hand parts and put them...

My colleague in work has just got a 118d with standard BMW headunit including aux in for ipods.. Now his ipod works fine via earphones but when he connects it via genuine BMW 3.5mm line out to aux cable the music is really quiet even when volume is turned right up on headunit and ipod.. First...

I've tried searching but could only find E36 saloon/coupe info. Anyone know how to remove the headunit on an E36 compact? Looks like a case of using one of those special stereo tools or screwdrivers etc but not sure. Thanks

Here is my latest project. As some of you know, since the 325 has been finished I have been getting twitchy for something else to do while we are waiting for our house move to be sorted...:hihi I have also become a bit obsessive about the 325 and hardly take it anywhere now due to worrying about...
