My Ride: 2004 E61 sport
Default Save my E61

I've almost come to the end of my tether with all the issues with my 2004 E61 sport, I'm thinking of getting rid which I really don't want to, so hoping someone can help!

1. The pillar on the front driver side leaks in rain, water comes through the lining about half way down the pillar, sometimes it leaks from where the front reading light is situated, I can't understand where the leak is coming from as it comes through at different places! I do have a panoramic roof which I don't use. How can I sort this?

2. The I drive is hardly ever working with a manual reset each time I start the car, it switches on okay but can't use the I drive as the screen doesn't read it or it lags behind my a few seconds after the reset!

My local independent isn't very good!

Help please!

If you want me to share a video of what this car is putting me through drop me a text and I can send u pics or videos of what is going wrong.

I move had this car for four years and really want to keep it, unless I can sort these issues and whole host of others my Mrs is going to have the last say!!!

1. Check the windshield rubber, up top, mine's looking like it needs replacement.

2. Do a CIC retrofit.
