  1. Is the manual somewhere you've looked? Even though I don't recall that feature being available in my 1997, I always drove it with the driver's seat fully reclined :D. Utilising the seat memory, you could achieve a similar effect. I set up '2' so it was identical to '1' only the mirrors were orientated downward so I could see the curb easier when parked.
  2. My car is now running like new after I had the brake lines updated. No longer audible, but produces pleasant booing.

  5. This leads me to my 2006 BMW 530xd e60. My brake lines were severely corroded when I checked yesterday's brake fluid spill. My vehicle is still in my garage. I got in my car today and fired it up; it sounds considerably louder than before, and smoke, mostly blue and white, is coming out of the tailpipe. It seemed like there was absolutely no boost when I drove it for ten minutes to the repair. Being behind the wheel felt like you were in a diesel vehicle devoid of turbo. Even if the RPM reaches 4000, it appears that no boost is applied. On level roads, whether I use cruise control or keep the speed constant, I see that the rpm fluctuates somewhat.
  6. These are the front indicator fuses. The blown fuses are replaced with new headlamp components. Appreciate your assistance
  7. Good day. Is anyone here familiar with the function of this fuse? The 74th fuse in my e63 keeps blowing, and I have no idea why. While researching diesel vehicles online, I was unable to find any information on E63 petrol vehicles with the fuel pump relay responding. Much obliged.
  8. It's a spark plug gaske that's leaking from the cam cover.
  9. As far as I'm aware, there is no English word that adequately describes the shape of the spark plug recess gaskets, therefore I used the word "round" to describe them. Well done!
  10. Because they squeeze each round gasket around each plug, I would assume that whoever changed the plugs last didn't torque the spark plug nuts down correctly at 11nm (I think). The oil will seep past the gaskets and pool around the plugs if they aren't snug enough.
