My E39 requires front brake pad replacement. My local gas station owner
says he has ASE certified technician and can do the job as it's a
simple piece of scope and he does it all the time for other premium
luxury cars (I see many luxury foreign cars in his lot).

This recently occurs and often in the morning (cold?) when I drive out
of the house to drop
off kid at school (15 minutes away).  While at school, if I turn off
engine and back on,

Hello, I cam here looking for some classifieds. Can you guys direct me in
the right direction to some decent sources in So Cal?
Thx.

THIS HAS HAPPENED RECENTLY.  EVERYTHING WORKS, i.e., LIGHTS, RADIO,
ETC., YET THE ENGINE DOES NOT TURNOVER AT ALL.  AFTER A FEW TRIES, IT
STARTS RIGHT UP.  65,000 MILES NO OTHER PROBLEMS.  ANY SUGGESTIONS

OK, you were all so great with the oil sensor question...here is the
second question....
The main cabin lights don't work and the emergency flasher goes on, on
its own, particularly when it is raining.

I originally thought one of my kids had wrapped a wire arount my stick
shift, then I realized that the loose wires (about 6" on each side)
were coming from the stick shift itself!  Was somebody messing with my
car?  What do these wires do?

I've enjoyed this car for many years. What should I get next?

I have a 1988 735i with 125,000 miles and the oil pressure sensor
message came on a few weeks ago after the first below freezing night.
The mechanic changed the sensor and checked the car out and everything
seemed OK. The other day, also below freezing, the message came back

10 days ago the ASC light came on then about 2 seconds later the EML light
came on my dashboard and the car went into limp home mode.  Stopped the car
and waited about 10 minutes then restarted all fine, about an hour later
both lights came on again in the same sequence.  Parked ...

I have a 2004 diesel X5 and I have noticed that the fuel gauge seems to
"stick" at just under half way and no longer reflects how much fuel is
in the tank.  The only way I can tell how far I can drive is using the
trip meter as I know I can get about 500 miles to a tank.

My wife, the main driver, has just told me that when she returns to the car,
she notices that all 4 windows are sometimes open. The amount varies from
slightly, to half way.

I have a E46 2001 Convertible, and i have noticed that since it has got
cold outside..(oh by the way i live in the UK)...Every time i start my
car the on board computer beeps and displays a temperature? IE. +1.5 C.
then disappears?

A few weeks ago I posted a request for information and opinions regarding
wheel / tire upgrades for my 2002 Z3. I appreciate all the responses. This
is a follow-up to that post.
My stock tires were 225/50-16 on stock 16" BMW wheels. I was considering

I purchased a used Z4 and it came with three keys.  I understand the keys
need to be used in order to "charge up."  Once they discharge they will no
longer work.
I had a basic OEM alarm put in the car.  Two of the keys activate the alarm
