Need your thoughts or opinions?

my car has no power or crank. All of a sudden when checking the car power was restored on its own. I inquired with a mechanic.. he says it’s possibly the CAS module. Should I replace it or spend and have the mechanic confirm it’s that.

You should buy a BMW specific code reader.

Amazon or eBay. I've seen them as low as $59 (US). Code reader, not coder. Coders are expensive because they are used for programming.

Do not replace your CAS. It's more than likely not your issue. Did the mechanic pull the codes or was he just guessing. If he did pull the codes what were they?
