Jmcaiado, How do I go about changing the trans. fluid (manual), diff. fluid, and power steering fluids? are there drain openings for each, or do I use the turkey baster ?

Thanks

hello. i have two questions. i have an 04 545i and i purchased a used cd changer. do i have cd changer prep? i open the glove box and i have the compartment for it. do i just plug in a harness? do i need to program it? when i look on the i-drive to the left of the cd option, there is an icon of three discs. does this mean that the program is there to run the cd changer?


also, are the bumper brackets located where the bumper meets the fender on an m5 different than the ones on an e60? my frien put m5 fenders with an m-tech front bumper and the alignment is not flush. i remember reading that the side brackets are different on the m5.

thanks

Hi,

Could you tell me the location of the wiper relay on the E60 and how to access it.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Clobemonman.

He answered only two questions back in July of 2004. This forum works way better when questions are asked as new topics and not piled into a single topic that's over three years old. I believe this is the reason most of the "veterans" here are ignoring the new, recent questions...

Note to newbies: If you have a question, don't ask it here, do a search first. This forum has a ton of information (many of it technical in nature) already posted -- if you don't come up with anything after searching, post a new topic with a clear subject and you'll likely get some help from members around the world.
