cruise control

Ive tried scouring several forums but i havent found the exact answer im looking for so here goes. Since august 2019 I am the proud owner of a Pre-facelift E46 325i (2001/06). I managed to retrofit a bluetooth module myself and then turned to replacing my button-less 4 spoke plastic steering...

Hi folks. I have an E46 (2000) 318i, driven by wire. I have a cruise control retro fitted on my car and it worked fine until recently. Since then, the green light goes on the dash, but the CC does not engage as I press Set, as usual. Also, as soon as I tap the brakes, the light goes off and I...

Bought my 2006 325i and I currently have two problems. My cruise control doesn't work at all and when putting the car in reverse (manual) reverse lights don't work. After checking the reverse lights code it simply says left bulb. I have swapped both bulbs still no luck. Could this possibly be a...

Hey guys. I have issue with my cruise control (E46 old style, mechanical). Until couple of weeks ago it was working fine. Now, the green light on the dash stays on until I press the + button. Then it does not keep the speed and some seconds later the light turns off. I cannot switch it on with...

Hi guys, I have a 318i (2000) with the 'dumb' steering wheel. I am now looking to replace it with something fancier. A guy from another forum told me that if I buy his steering wheel with multifunction, my cruise control will work as well, because all E46s have this as a feature, I will only...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking for a while using the DIY pages here quite successfully. Ok a weird one. 318i 1999 M43. I'm driving at 100km/h on cruise, and the airbag light comes on. Turn off cruise. Airbag light goes out. Now whenever I cruise, airbag light comes on within 20 sec. If I...

So I have a high mileage 5spd 330i (187,000 miles) and it has a few problems. I have had the traction control light, the abs light, and the brake pads (?) light on ever since I got the car last September. A couple weeks ago, my cruise control also quit working. I read a couple threads about...

I have a 2002 330i with a VF supercharger installed. I have been getting the lean codes P0171 and P0174 for about 6 months. I replaced the MAF with a non OEM unit and everything was fine for a few months. The codes reoccurred and I replaced the MAF with a new OEM unit. About a month later...

Hi I have a BMW E46 320i from 2000. Having some problems with the cruise control, that only works some times. I've tried to find out if there is anything logic for when it does not work, but couldnt find any. Some times i can turn it on and i can see the icon on the dashboard, other times...

As the topic says, move the cruise control. Is it possible? Has anyone done it? Like moved the buttons for it Been thinking about getting a luisi steering wheel and will therefore not have the buttoncontrols on the steering wheel. The radio controls are no problem since you could just move your...

My 2001 330ci developed these gripes, I believe, at the same time... 1. Remote key fob lock / unlock for doors and trunk does not function with either key - (works every time manually with key in exterior door lock, interior handle and also with the center switch – trunk release button under...

Hi: I did a manual tranny swap a while back. Since then, the cruise control fails to work. Yesterday, i gave another shot to check the clutch sensor wiring as well as the multifunction steering wiring. I did continuity check from the source to the DME, and all were found well connected. I even...

I just bought my first Bimmer, a 2001 325xiT wagon. It did not come with cruise control and does not have a multi-function steering wheel (MFSW). Can I install cruise control? If so, do I have to upgrade the steering wheel to MFSW? Thanks for you help. -- Phil

Hi My cruise control allows it to be turned on after engine start. But light goes out and will not come back on once brake pedal is touched/pressed. I have to shut engine down and turn off, then restart before light will light and crusie will work again. Any ideas where to look? thanks

My 320i lacks cruise control; which is so lame. I've gone down to the dealership to ask about aftermarket cruise control and they just shake their heads no without even looking at my car. Its been my experience that members on this site know more about aftermarket options than the people who...
