You need to ground a pin on the 17 pin connector for a few seconds.

Door car removal is about 10-15 minutes work. A few screws and a few trim clips.

Just looking at the safety. Firstly you would be swapping out seats that are strong enough to support a rollover. OK if you have roll hoops. Secondly, the seatbelt pretensioner would need to be retained. Thirdly later cars have an occupancy sensor that you could bypass if you wanted to fire all airb...

Are you saying you have a BMW fitted sub and rears, and if so are they Harmon Kardon?

2.8 badge says it's an early facelift (1999ish) with the M52TU engine and hence yellow turn indicators.

TBH I cant tell any difference, I was not looking for any really as even a Full cat replacement pipe on my MR2 was not noticable.

Eh? What? They were certainly NOT standard in Europe as early as 1997 and I am not sure that they were even standard post-facelift, though a lot of post-facelift cars did get them specced as an option, there are post-facelift cars that came without them. What is true is that from 1997 on, all Europ...

Same over here. Something to do with the American litigation culture in the event of a rollover prevented them being fitted to early models.

You could talk them into giving you the old parts, then do the Whalen fix and sell the new parts on eBay.

I found a German Pfennig coins chocked in each my seat rails! They must have known about the problem in the factory (MY1997)!

Shorting pins willy-nilly is a really bad idea if you want the thing to work afterwards. You may get lucky. And you may not.

Doesn't putting the key in the ignition and starting disarm the alarm? My memory is a little rusty.

Jumping the pins is for US market alarms. Follow the rubber bung route.

API I think is an application call. If the lowest level function (Ediabas) isn't running, then that will maybe cause a API call fail. You don't need Tool32. Can you start Ediabas.exe manually first? Edit: Check me out Homes. INPA starts EdiaBas on mine automatically, but there is no harm in starting...

estocks

Nope, it's a little green and grey icon by the clock and an item in the taskbar called EdiaBas Server. It functions as the communitcation layer between the car and INPA.

Hmm, tricky. Did Ediabas serial port server service start?

The motor can be disengaged using a key on the pump/motor. Maybe it can be reengaged? Was it working before she lowered it?

They stay in Outbox until read, when they move to Sent.

I'd forget it and find another one. Agreed. The lack of an original service book and any other receipts/history would swing it for me. If the previous owner couldn't be bothered to look after this and include it then it doesn't send a great message about how well the car's been treated. The other i...

All of the above, but fold the seat far forward, and centre the seat frame on the rails before disconnecting the battery. Wait a few seconds after unplugging the battery before unpluggging the seatbelt pretensioners. This makes it as compact as possible for lifting out, and stops any nasty seat rail...

You need to check if you have the footwell amp. Also, not only do Becker and Alpine have enoug power to drive speakers with a warm sound, they can support iPods too. The BMW gear is, well we have a word filter here so; poor.

That area of the boot lock is prone to rusting, and the boot lid can bend around the lifter. Leave well alone I'd say. I did see a third party little plastic tongue handle thingy that goes below the boot once. Can't find the image now.

Only the later cars have DSC, early cars has ASC which does not need the steering wheel position sensor.

There is a footwell amp ? thats on the passenger side i assume ? thinking about it i might go down the alpine route - read a post on here about the Alpine's being a good match in terms of amber illumination. the speakers though are truly awful - need to change those anyone know if its easy to get t...
