    P38A 2001 Locking Actuator problem

    A new one for mine today, so far never had a problem with locks remotes or anything along those lines on my 01 vogue. However today after getting to a wedding for the 3rd time, don't ask I noticed that the front passenger door was not locked after I locked the car with the fob. Now when I was...

    P38A Love it when you find a problem easily! Also MAF question

    Certainly go for a genuine item, having seen what a cheap maf does, in my experience on a friends it was worse than the failing genuine item! If they wont go for the proper item then good used second hand genuine is the way forward. Depending on whats happened to it it might also make it even...

    P38 Sat Nav black screen

    Looks like that is HW 2.2 and is a Mk2, can we see a picture of the front of it? Look at the repair guide I wrote a couple of days ago, a bit further down the page. Contact Andy on there he will be able to help you with it.

    P38A P38 Navigation Repair "guide"

    OK, so after much research and messing around with getting a working navigation unit in my P38 without spending a fortune here are my findings. Assuming you have a factory fit navigation system, with the 4 buttons on the left and knob at the bottom regardless if it has a Mk2 or Mk3 navigation...

    P38A Car wont start!

    You have checked the battery haven't you? Fully charged and no loose terminals. I know its obvious but a single click when turning the ignition on in my previous experience has always been flat battery. Not sure if the P38 has it but I would suspect so, some of my previous cars if they detected...

    L322 55 plate EWS, or not?

    Just be totally sure he isnt going to just clone the existing key rather than make another one, its not a massive problem but I would say if you have two of one of the key numbers it will only let one be synchronized at the same time. Not a huge issue if you don't intend to use the two keys at...

    Just looking for opinions...

    They might have a common inlet filter? Not sure never looked. On our 1 series it was the front pump that was blocked the rear worked fine. Try popping a pipe of and putting some air back down it into the tank and see what happens.
  12. Q

    Just looking for opinions...

    Lovely.... one day maybe! As for your screen washer issue, if the pump runs and no juice then its probably a pipe but you would expect it to drop out of the car somewhere. I did know of someone with an L322 and the pipe had come of for the rear washers and it ended up leaking into the rear...

    P38A Sat Nav Question

    In order to look at the service menu, you first need to go into "set" which will probably only be available for a minute or two after startup. Once in the "set" menu hold down the Menu button for 10 seconds and it should enter service mode. HW version is listed on the top of the navigation...

    P38 Sat Nav black screen

    Sorry just noticed the first picture, that is the "norm" when it comes to screens but it might have a Mk2 Navigation computer rather than a Mk3 which is a small but worthwhile improvement if you do have a fault. Often if the computer is dead you will get either a full white screen or a totally...

    Scottish guy has no idea what he wants to buy

    I think that's a bit unfair, some forums are a bit more "scene" than others but quite a few contain alot of technical information and knowledgeable people. Often you find people have produced how to videos with stuff on BMWs and as for parts, chavtastic is the norm sadly. Hard to find OEM bits...

    P38 Sat Nav black screen

    Being a 2000 Vogue, it might have an early or different navigation system to the "norm" Put some pictures up of the nav computer and the screen and lets see if we can work out what it is first of all.

    The only blasphemy is that abortion of a badge on the back. :) However nice looking car, needs some different wheels but you are blessed with factory fit sports seats, gsm phone, glass sunroof (quite rare actually) most are steel and a CD changer look like that old girls options :)
