I have 2 keys for my 2005 BMW 545. Both of them stopped working around the same time. I bought a new key from the dealership and this new key still doesn't work. I checked door and remote door related fuses 10, 12, 11, 27, 22, and 24 and they're ok. Does anyone have suggestions on what I...

I***8217;ve recently bought a 550i because I decided it***8217;s now or never to finally own a V8. For the wave-of-torque style acceleration, and for the noise, of course. And I***8217;m very dissappointed with both. (Regarding acceleration, I started a related thread months ago (the thread...

My key remote stopped working and I opened it up to try to replace the battery. The problem is I can’t remove the old battery using a razor or small pliers. The battery is soldered to the electronic board. How do I remove the old battery?

I want to buy a 2004 or 2005 545i, but wonder if there were issues with that engine. I have heard that I should perhaps get a 2006 550i (for more money!) to avoid some of the problems. Does anyone know if there were issues with the 4.5L engine? Is that why BMW upgraded it?
