This morning for no apparent reason my front windscreen washer stopped working. No pump sound at all. (Touring - and the rear is fine) The wipers are not always giving their usual sweeps when the stalk is pulled - they do at the first few tries Where do I start?

Both of my key fobs have stopped working. The fob will start the engine and the car drives normally apart from the self locking not operating after driving off. The central locking works manually using the key from the fob. Could this be an antenna or broken wire to fault. It happened after...

Hi folks, I've done plenty of searching on this, with no luck. When i first got the car, the key range was awful. I had to stand next to it and hit unlock 20+ times before it would open. I got a new rechargable battery for the key and it solved the problem, although the range was still quite...

I have trawled this and other sites for hours researching but not been able to diagnose my problem. So a little while back the glass in the tailgate stopped opening on the button then started opening on its own when shutting the tailgate. Investigated the button on the tailgate but that was OK...

Before I took my car car (e46 325ti) off the road way over a year back, my car occasionally gave a strange cough/wheeze as the engine stopped. There were no other issues or fault lights, just that odd wheeze. Since putting the car back on the road I have been chasing other issues (gm5, duff...
