anyone knows if the 2004 530i steering wheel will go up and in when key is taken out or just up? I complain that my 04 530i wheel only goes up but not in when key is taken out to the dealer and they said it's the way it is but in the manual it said the wheel will go all the way up and all the way forward to ease entry. could anyone confirm this. thanks.

 

Mine only goes up. And all other 5ers I've driven too.

 

I have the same problem...When I take the key out, the steering wheel don't goes up. It remains in the same position. Anybody knows what is wrong?

 

The steering wheel moves only up into its highest position for the easy entry/exit function.


The movement of the steering wheel is only for cars with the electrically adjustable steering wheel. Manually adjustable wheels do not move. Could it be that your car has a manually adjusted wheel?

N I have an electricaly adjustable steering wheel and also electricaly adjustable memory seats. The functiond of the steering wheel functioned till today morning.

 

Page 54 of the Owner's Manual states under Easy Entry/Exit, "To facilitate entry and exit, the steering wheel temporarily moves into the uppermost position."

Says nothing related to retracting toward the dash.

 

Hmmm, i know that the wheel dont have to go towards the dashboard. But mine wheel dont goes up when i exit. Do you have any idea what can be wrong.
