  1. I successfully installed the replacement switch independently; I severed the wires and used a heat-shrink solder connection, which functioned well. Total cost: £55, in addition to a Saturday morning.
  2. To conclude this discussion, it seems that the most economical option for purchasing these items is the BMW spares counter. £55 per unit. In all other instances I examined, the prices exceeded £70.
  3. Your assistance is much appreciated; thank you. The component is priced at $21 on that website, although it appears as £65 at the point of purchase. Indeed!
  4. I have conducted diagnostics and am seeking to replace the boot microswitches on my 2013 E89. Has anybody purchased these recently? I am have difficulty locating them online. Any assistance would be highly appreciated.
  5. To confirm accuracy, I often detach a wheel and measure the disc diameter in situ; sometimes, a visible component number is present on the brake pads, but this is not always the case.

  7. Given that it is 2024, the original battery should be covered under warranty since it is less than one year old.
  8. I will address it tomorrow morning. I really appreciate it.
  9. Thank you for your response. I used INPA to decode the codes, but no pertinent information emerged. I should consider acquiring a pre-owned LCM for testing purposes.
  10. Greetings, everybody. I am experiencing two issues with the lights on my E39. They may or may not be connected. The first issue is that my turn signals flash every 5-7 seconds without any corresponding indicator on the dashboard; there are no arrows or clicking sounds. The second issue pertains to the majority of the lights, including headlights, turn signals, dashboard, and danger switch lighting. The lights flicker irrespective of the engine's operational status (I presume the alternator). Notably, as I rotate the wheel to decrease the dashboard light, the flicker becomes more pronounced and slower. The mechanics I consulted exhibited a lack of confidence, with one suggesting that I resolve the issue independently. I attempted to unhook each bulb individually, but that was not the issue. Kindly assist.
  11. Thank you everybody for your responses. It seems that, at my trim level, they are not intended to be activated. It is somewhat frustrating because after paying $50,000 for this car, it does not allow for the activation of the LED strips during the daylight, unlike almost every other vehicle on the road. Absurd. However, I am assured that the car is running properly.
  12. I said in my post that they are activated in the settings.
