Been working on my 2005 M3 convertible for awhile now after getting to drive it home in the rain with the top stuck about 6 inches open. Replaced the two "levers" with the threaded blocks with aftermarket ones found online, that wasn't too bad once I figured out how it all works. The...

So I posted a thread here the other day about help for my driver seat, which was stuck in the forward most position, as I moved it there so I could vacuum underneath the seats. When I tried to move it back, it wouldn't budge. Here are the symptoms I had. - Switch Clicks, but the seat doesn't...

E46 325i 2001 Centre console door lock switch doesn't work when the car is off or the key is in the accessory or on position. It only works when the car is running. Is this normal, if so how do you unlock the doors from the inside without the key?

My 2001 330i with 101K has a sunroof issue. The one touch is not working and the sunroof will open and close only by repeatedly pushing the switch. Each push of the switch moves it about an inch in the desired direction. I checked the rails and everything appears clear and there are no odd...

I'm trying to install a secret toggle switch that won't allow the key to start the engine unless the toggle switch is on, in case my keys get stolen so it's harder to steal. I have found nothing about which wire to spice into, best I've found is what I believe to be the starter wire (blue and...

I have a 2000 323I auto that I recently purchased. When I got it the key fob was broken but the key itself still worked (turned car on, worked locks, ect.). I bought a new key fob from the dealership and they weren't able to initialize it. They tried many different ways.. yada yada.. finally the...

My power sun roof on my car slides open and closed perfectly fine, but for some reason the sunroof wont vent(lift) up. Anybody have this problem or know what is the cause?

I have a 325ci that i would like to add a switch to that would kill all the rear lights but leave the headlights on. No its not for running from the cops or anything like that, if you have nothing better to input then saying, "don't do this", please just don't reply. Anyway i know that the brake...

Hi Guys, I have recently joined the forum and noticed that quite a few people were having problems with their mirrors not adjusting via the switch. Mine also has this problem and also included the issue of the passenger side mirror not re-adjusting after tilting down for reversing. I have...

For my first "thread" for e46 fanatics I'd like someone to shed some light on an issue I have with my driver's side rear window. It is currently fully extended and won't close at all. I figured the switch in center console was the issue, but I bought a new switch for the driver's side window and...

I know a lot of times this is the regulator but I think this is something different. Last night my girlfriend spilled juice by the cup holders that spilled also onto the window switches by the shifter. Immediately after both front and rear windows went the whole way down, and got stuck in...

Problem, I used the window switch from the driver seat to roll down the right rear passenger window. During that operation I heard what sounded like a screw loosen and fall into inside doorwell. After which window would not go up or down. Using information from this forum I took the right rear...

Hi, I have a 2004 330 ci E46. I am a bit confused about the headlamps. I had a lot of trouble with ballast, bulbs etc., but finally got everything working. When I turn on the headlamps, the xenon bulbs light, and when I push the hi bream switch forward, they get "brighter" like a high beam...

Ok guys, who has installed a "blackout" switch to disable your brake lights? I did this without any problems on my F-150 but my 2001 330i has a monitoring circuit (aka: Brake light test circuit) on the brake light switch. I once heard that the only way is to install a relay in the trunk to...

Hi My name is Tom and I'm from Norway. I was wondering if anyone ever made any custom buttons for their center console. I'm talking about these buttons: I have separate buttons in my car and where wondering if anyone ever made custom buttons for their separate button rows? I found this from...

i've done a lot of searches, but haven't found someone with the same problem i'm having: the wipers don't move at all when the stalk is moved up or down. but when i move it towards myself to trigger the washer fluid, the wipers initiate. i've already tried putting a new relay in and it didn't...
