Hey everyone!

I had seen a few blogs on eyebrows
i was wondering if anyone knows a good place to take my BMW 525i 2005 to get my eyebrows turned on with a software update in sydney Australia?
and how much would it cost?

thanks

Hmmm. All eyebrows work in the US, Canada and the UK.

Wow, everything really IS the opposite/upside down in Australia!

you need to take it in a get it reprogrammed.. i had to do that on my e60... when i took it in the dealers didnt know what was wrong.. if you search you will see a pdf of the coding they need to do.. i printed that out and took it to them and then my car was done in half a day

You can program yourself ........and ALL your options yourself for the cost of what a dealership will charge....and they most likely will not even know what to do so they'll charge you an arm and a leg to reprogram the entire car when that's not what needs to be done. I know exactly how to fix this issue in about 5 min LOL

I'd be interested in learning how to program the car on my own... that's probably a different thread. My eyebrows weren't working when I bought my car and I asked the dealer to turn them on when it was in for service for something else so that it wouldn't cost anything. I think programming is $65. There were a couple versions of software that accidently had them turned off, you probably are just running on an old version.
