Sounds like it could just be that they haven't cleared the code(s). Just a thought.

Headgaskit mate (sorry) bad news

More detail needed. Is the clutch dragging causing the engine to stall?Does it otherwise idle OK?Any fault codes?

General advice:Radio interference.Ceck alternator recharge rate.Very low on details,u mean if in a parking lot it will iddle fine?If breaking hard won't stall?If easy break engage won't cut?Fuel/Fuel line/fuel pump related issues.Air mass (MAF) sensor related.U must track the problem,more details.Cheers,share if figured out.

I went on UTUBE and found someone who had posted the procedure. It's not real easy, you have to take the fan blade off which takes a special wrench. But you'll save yourself a lot of money. I purchased my radiator at a discount parts store in Vancouver WA. Not a rebuild and had BMW all over the box. I only paid $105.00. When you install it, having one person at the top and one person on the bottom makes it much easier. YOu have a few items that all have to be lined up for it to slide into place before you tighten all the hardware and refill the fluid. Not much help, but this may get you on the right track

it is located inside the transmission on some models or on some others on the out side.its like a magnetic push pin. all depends on what gear box you have fitted.

sounds like a vacuum leak check for cracked vacuum lines

Is this the oil pressure sensor you changed?

try to disconnect the negative battery cable press the brake put it in neutral turn the key connect the battery and start truck check if brake lights or working if not change brake light switch or you may need a new key

how long since last oil change? how much mileage one truck sounds like its running very rich or its time for an overhaul

Sounds like a bad ignition coil or a fouled spark plug. If you can do an OBD scan at the dealership (or Autozone will sometimes do them for free) you can find out what cylinder is misfiring and start there. Not likely related to your battery replacement.

Ok, not sure what your question is, but if the wire is loose you need to secure it for sure.

don't buy headlight ignition alone It is hard to install,so you should buy headlight unit

either low gas or a the compressor soloniod /clutch packed up their the two most common causes

hey its 2 stages
first: 25Nm + 50º

Certainly sounds like a lack of power in the battery. Do you have a genuine BMW battery or a cheapie replacement?Have you tried to jump start the vehicle.Batteries can seem ok, but when called upon, the power drawn out of them can be insufficient.Try charging battery and starting on the charger- or just jump start to see what happens

If the belt is too tight, it is no good for the bearings, I don't think you have a belt problem, did you check the power steering pump?
