Hi all So I have been having some issues w my 2004 BMW 325ci TL;Dr I replaced a fuel pump and expansion tank. I tried to start the car with the maf and air box disconnected. Resulting in a no start/crank. It started when the car stalled and started back up after a few turns. A couple days...

So this problem started a few weeks ago. When I turn the key, I hear one click and nothing else. I brought my 2 year old battery into Batteries Plus to get it tested and they said it was working like new. This lead me to believe that I have a bad starter. I understand that generally a bad...

Hi guys, I'm in the process of wrapping up a swap in my 325ci. Lower-mileage M54 due to abuse on the last motor from the previous owner... Got everything assembled and double-checked, went to fire, and I'm having issues with my starter after swapping it over to the new motor. I get a single...

Hello there, I tried searching for this problem via Fanatics and Google and came up short. I have a 330XI with the 5-speed manual trans @ 130K miles - I've had the car for just over two years. No real mods aside from the golf-tee, a K&N filter, a rebuilt DISA valve, and a Dyanvin head unit as...

Hey guys, I was wondering if I could pick your brains about my sick e46. So let me preface this by saying that I changed my spark plugs yesterday. No issues were found while doing this, and I covered 100 miles after completing the job, and noticed a great improvement in the car. Now, fast...

Greets all...new to the E46 forums, veteran poster on E38.org...also have a 14-year old 740i. I have been scouring these forums for this issue and have discovered lots of good info, which has inexorably led to this post. Turn the key to start position, and it clicks once...wont turn over...

Whenever I press the window button to either roll up or roll down my windows, I hear a single click come from the glovebox/fuse area. Even when my windows are fully up and I press the window up button, it makes the click sound. Same for the windows being down and pressing the down button. Does...

So I go out to the garage yesterday to head to the store and my 99 323i (130k) greets me with a loud "click click" when I try to start it. ugh The on-battery indicator is green, and a quick multi-meter post-to-post measure was around 10 or so. Hooked up the charger and set it to "start" mode...

I have a 2003 325xi and these past few months have been a nightmare. It started because whenever I took left turns at slow speeds, I could feel a little click in the steering wheel. But ONLY on left turns. BMW told me I needed to replace my left front axle. I did that and it didn’t fix...

Does anyone have this wierd noise when you let go of the gas pedal and it makes a click noise? I haven't driven my car for like 2-3 days before this started to happen. When I shift, I let go of the gas and it CLICKS, it does this every single time. It hella annoying, even with my windows down...
