if you have a motion sensor, it maybe way to sensitive. sometimes you can just adjust that turning a knob or a bolt a few degrees to either side. some other times, you just have to follow some special instructions. check your manual for alarm sensitivity adjustments.

I had this same problem, I won't say its the same fault as you have but you can try this .Find the connection for the tempsender / and fan .Try soaking the connectors with W/D 40 .It cured my problem as the connectors were all green and powdery .

more than likely is being caused by a faulty level sensor but first check the connection and fluid level when engine is cold as fluid level will rise when engine warms up

check the socket the bulb goes into

No, however it is actually very easy if you remove the front wheel.

WD40 on the latch next time you get it open. You will have to pull the lever, press down on your hood and pull the lever again. Maybe you an an assistant can work together to get it open.

Lubrication is needed on the latch ... clean with WD40 then get some spray white grease from the Auto Parts store. That is what worked on my Chevy ...

You need to take the vehicle back to the shop that done the work and have them do a electrical test on the system.Its possible the alternator is producing low amperage.The chance that you have a faulty unit is possible.

I need to change headlight bulb in a 2004 BMW Z4 coupe. Does anyone know where I can find out how?

you will need to buy uk spec headlight cluster (not cheap) simple one out one in......lamps will fit both.

Open the hood is good especially when you're in the mood.

You will need to open up hood, reach inside by headlight, FInd the plastic ring and turn counter-clockwise and then remove it. Then take bulb and harness and turn and pull that out.
Unclip the harness from bulb.

Hi There, You might want to consider changing your battery from the wet cell to a dry cell... With a dry cell it can last longer without "draining". Ensure to switch off all internal accessories that may be using up battery power when the car is not in use and avoid kick-starting the ignition for a long time should it fail to pick up.
Cheers

if all three lights came on at once there is definety an issue with the dynamic stability control (DSC). my first thought was steering angle sensor, but it could be many things such as DSC control unit, wheel speed sensor, or even the brake fluid low

You can recharge it yourself, goto autoparts store and buy a refill can and adaptor.
