Its under the back next to the tank, its the aluminium tube looking thing. You need training or previous experience to change this because the filter is pressurised by the fuel pump, somewhere around 50 psi of fuel will spray out when the connections are loosened. Do not do this when hot, where there is the risk of fire or electrical spark. Have the vehicle properly supported on ramps or lift, do not do this over a pit!!
Hello Sir. Usually it would say in the owners Hand book you got with car?
explaining all the controls functions of the car or 4x4? alternatively
if you look under bonnet there only be four filling reservoirs: engine coolant
water, washer bottle, brake Fluid,power steering. usually the engine
coolant will be a largish cap about 2-3 ins either blue or black its NOT
this one. The brake fluid Will be at the back of engine bay and so NOT
his one. Washer bottle again will be a cap blue in color its NOT this
one. the one you want should be near front of car /engine and should
have a steering wheel symbol on it the caps usually smaller then the
engine coolant and black attached to a small reservoir and when you
remove it will have a dipstick attached to it or small spike attached to
cap this is used to measure power steering fluid, hope this helps... Thanks Mike
The first thing i would do would be check the fuses. Look in your owners manual for where the different fuses that might control your windshield wipers.There may be more than one. Check these fuses. If you cannot tell if it is blown by looking at it, check the fuses using a voltmeter set to read continuity.
have a x5 4.8is the on the left hand side i heard a a knocking noise under the car round the passenger footwell then when i parked in up ten minutes later the whol front end has dropped and back is ok..it has air suspension.. but explain the banging before it dropped..
right i had this ***** of a problem 2nd week in jan 2010. a bmw mechanic told to jack car up at front and hook a jumper pack up to live on starter motor terminal and then earth, was quite hard to put croc clip on to starter but did manage it. this was supposed to back charge to battery to get enough power to open car with remote, in theory it should of worked but i gave up after 3 hours-no power. so i got my key put it in drivers door and mechanically turned to open position, then i got a cutlery knife from kitchen and wrapped some insulation tape around tip up 2-3 inches. then i pushed this down glass directly above door handle key end to pry a gap between glass and rubber just enough to slide coat hanger wire in with small hook on end then i manouvered wire hook until i hooked latch arm which i did within 1 minute pulled coathanger wire up and pulled door handle the door opened much to my delight. this was a major sigh of relief after trying for 2 days to get in, and many hours searching the net for a solution which i couldnt find. THIS WORKS 100 percent WITH ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE!!!!!!! any questions email me- [email protected]
sometimes it will clear if you turn the X5 off and restart it. however, it could be an early indication that the tranny is about to expire. i have had it happen and it cleared with a power cycle, but also had friends where it cleared for a few weeks/months and returned. this time it was really the transmission that went bad. if you can't get it to clear, then i'd suggest taking it to the dealer and have them plug into it to have a better look.
