Any BMW Convertible specialists in Bristol/Somerset/Gloucestershire area (e46) Blokes at an MPower garage aren't 100% sure what the problem is with the soft top, it comes half way up, had the red flashing light switch, hydraulic pump is leaking, but don't want to commit to hefty labour fees and...

Hey All, I am having some weird issues with the roof at the moment and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. The car was all fine, didnt drive it much because of the lockdown, and few weeks back as it was sunny, decided to put the roof down for a little drive. All was fine, until it...

Hello I've posted a short 24-second 9Mb low resolution video clip of the non-operable roof on YouTube. I first try putting the roof down, but the front lip above the windscreen now barely moves at all. I then press to close the roof, but it seemingly doesn't close properly as the LED still...

Sorry for the awkward title but here goes... To get the soft top to go up or down you have to hold the button. Does anyone know if I can have it set so that just I need only press the button once without holding it and the roof comes up/down. I know lots of things can be done with the key...

Hello! I am in desperate need for advice from you wise Z3 owners! My soft top has stopped working, I have only had this car just over a month and since none of my family have had Z3's (although all have BMWs) they are not entirely sure what the problem could be without investigating properly...

Almost a dozen times in the last few months, my BMW soft-top has opened by itself when parked on my street outside my house. The roof can only be operated by open and close buttons on the panel in front of the gear lever, and I always lock the vehicle. Fortunately there has been no theft or...
