Thanks but it really wasn't that difficult... well, once I was armed with the information of what the actual problem was that is.
I think for my next BMW I shall purchase the diagnostic hardware / software and take time to learn how to use it. Could end up saving an absolute fortune doing these kind of repairs yourself. It's a shame car dealers try (and succeed for the most part) to rip us off at any given opportunity
