Does anyone have experience either replacing or disabling the armrest valet lock on the E93? My valet lock motor is noisy, as if the gears are slipping. I'm quite happy to disable it. I have tried merely pulling the wiring from the terminal, but that also appears to disable the glovebox, and...

Hello all, First of all I'm new to this forum and to BMWs, so my question might sound a little silly but please allow it. Central locking is not working on my car, the key fob doesn't locks or unlocks the doors. however, i think its working because it unlocks the boot and i'm able to open the...

Hi all I’m a new member and hoping you can help! My drivers lock broke a few weeks ago withy the key spinning either 90 degrees left or right with no resistance and with the lock doing nothing, something has obviously stopped working/broken inside the lock. I’ve been using the central locking...

Hello all. Just bought a 316i se touring from a mate for silly money and love it. The only thing wrong was that only one key worked the central locking/alarm. I tried to charge it with a decent 100 mile trip but still didn't work. As your aware, the dealer is asking for 140 quid for a...
