Can the mods please enable 3 character search strings. You wont believe the number of 3 char acroymns our cars use and its a real pain not to be able to search for them.
e.g
BMW
FTM
ABS
CIC
CCC
ETK
WDS
FLA
BFD
I think you get the message.

I am pretty sure Lomag tried this already and in this software it can't be done.
But you can ad * to make the search word long enough, like: ETK*
Should work, Bruce...

Yeah...
Our search module reported your search and called it offensive...![Tease](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/tease.gif)
j/k
Seriously, e60* should work though.
There are some things that cause minor headaches in this software we use.
But, we are probably very soon changing over to a total different software which makes the forum much better and gives us more features.![Wink](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/wink.gif)
The search will then also be much more functional...
