Hi all, Recently noticed these abrasions on the display and also reduction in CIC display clarity. It was completely perfect previously. After some research my understanding is that it could be the anti glare film, but im not sure regarding the display 'halo' like border. Can someone help me...

Hello guys! I own a 2015 BMW Z4 sDrive35i and currently have an issue with a hardtop. For some reason, it started to open up just a half (you can see the pictures). The last sound I hear before it stops - it unlocks the part above my head and I'm able to push it a bit upwards. However, even if...

Recently purchased a 2011 Z4 (E89) (19k miles) and need to replace 3 tires. I live in NY and am a fairly tame driver. Anyone have experience with or know about the quality of Kumho Ecsta 4X II KU22 tires? Pepboys is running a promo on 4 tires, installed for $385 total. Also curious if anyone...

Hi all! I'm new to the E89 but heard it's a great community. I've already tried following the steps in the two most popular youtube videos. Verify connection in INPA, code in NCS Expert and coding tool, etc... It seemed to take longer to reappear but it is back. Would love some help...

I'm a new 2016 E89 owner (previous 2001 E36 owner) and I'm contemplating a wireless backup camera (Auto-vox CS-2). I think I can route the camera lead through the license plate light opening to get into the trunk. My question is this: The camera is supposed to connect to the backup light power...

Hi guys! I have a 2012 Z4 35i. I got the wheels stolen and after that I can’t get the TPMS to work. I got new wheels with the sensor installed, they didn’t work. According to a shop I went to the sensors in the wheels were programmed for a 2014. So I got new sensor programmed for this car, they...

Last week I was on my way to work and had my music on, I knoticed 2 loud pops coming from my driver side door, I then noticed a burnt wire smell in the cabin so I turned off my music and it stopped. Later on that day after work I walked out to my car, opened the door (the car was not on/ music...

Hello. I'm looking at an 09 e89 z4. However given the age I'm worried about any problems that may arise. Are the any issues I should brace myself for..? Are there any specific checks I should do in the car before I buy it .. Something I should watch out for? Other than the normal stuff? Tell...

Anyone have any experience of remapping the ecu of the Z4 28is? I've seen various offerings on the net, Celtictuning for one but wasn't sure if they had enough specific experience with this engine. Any thoughts or recommendations greatly appreciated...

The AC on my Z is acting up a little bit- making it a problem for my +100F/+40C temperatures in Arizona. The unit is blowing cold air but the fan seems to be stuck at it's lowest speed. I have tried all combinations with fan speed and climate section but nothing changes. It occasionally...

Hi all, Since I haven't found any post relating to this topic, I would like to ask if any of you had any problems with the amplifier found in the E89. I drive a 2012 28i with the HIFI-Loudspeaker System (11 speaker setup). The sound is fine at first, but when I turn the volume up the two bass...

Hi This is my first post. Sorry if I'm a novice. I have searched and searched this forum and the net with Google but no luck. I simply want to find a way to modify the ULF module in my Z4 E89 and change the phone number it calls for BMW Assist. I have read the SIM for this is in the ULF...

Hey all. I'm new to the forum, but I've had my 2009 Deep Sea Blue sDrive35i for a few years now - bought it in 2012 with 12.7k miles and it's now at 33.4k miles. No issues thus far, but with the first year of this model, I'll be sure to share anything I find as time progresses. After 6 years...

Does anyone know if the notorious drain problem (i.e. the one that causes the top motor to fail) has been resolved with the E89 ?? Thanks.

Does the E89 have the same drain problem as that which destroys the motor which controls the soft top in the E85 ?? Has the design issue been resolved ? Thanks.

Today replaced 2G Bridgestone RFTs with 3G RFTs, RE960AS RFT. Immediately felt/believed/sensed that ride was waaaay smoother and less hard. Nothing scientific in my initial impressions and will give the tires a workout on the incredibly bumpy Mulholland Drive pothole ridden scenic wonder way...

I just got a set installed last week, and I'm having trouble with noise. In some turning angle, like when you exit a raised parking lot and want to accelerate fast, there's a noise like the rear spring is squeaking in it's seating. I'm taking it in to the garage today to have it checked, and...
