It’s a 2004 L322

Hi, I have the same issue after replacing part of front RHS metal brake pipe on moving forward after a short distance it starts to lock up but only on front right as I can feel the heat on that disc. Calliper, slide, etc all good. I’ve come to the conclusion it’s to do with brakes not been...

Part arrived today from Germany - topran part number 500 624 (crankshaft dual mass unit for P38 to same as BMW 325td) paid 115 euro which included postage - I thought it was good value for money but we’ll see how it lasts. Topran could be buying the parts from anywhere I suppose but we’ll see -...

Now sorted - removed the grille, latch panel and radiator only - keeping it full of coolant. As a precautionary measure I removed the water pump pulley and tensioner pulley. I tapped around the remnants of the dual mass unit and then with a chisel I hit the edge to try and turn it - in hindsight...

Hi, Thanks for the responses so far and hopefully for the purposes of clarity the ribbed pulley is off as the rubber has basically disintegrated so I assume it is the rest of the dual mass damper that I’m looking to remove - I suppose for the pry bars I’ll have to take the radiator out as room...

Hi, Much appreciated if someone could tell me the best way to remove the crankshaft pulley of my 2000 P38 2.5 as the dual mass element has failed. I’ve removed the six bolts but pulley not moving - I have removed the fan unit and cowl but little else - radiator still fitted. I note there are...

Sorry guys - suspected sunstroke here as weather has been really good - previous post was incorrect for those that were thinking what’s this twit at!!!! I actually connected the drivers door speaker to the connection pins for the left hand speaker at the terminal block hence interference in...

Some progress - I disconnected the near side front door speaker at the 26 pin connector block at the amp and also the drivers side front door, I then connected the near side speaker wires to the drivers side terminal points in the connector block and I now have interference in the drivers door...

Warmers thanks for the technical info on WD40 which I didn’t know!! I did know it dispersed water but was unaware it dried to produce a waterproof layer. Dippypud - whilst no expert on the matter I would have thought that any issue with the aerial/signal input would show across the whole...

Thanks guys. The sat nav appears to work in that I can input a start and destination but I haven’t heard it give directions yet as I haven’t tried driving down the road yet. I disconnected the wire from the connector at the amp which runs to the passenger front door speaker and this...

Datatek thanks, wIll try that but I’ll have to get a tin first. I thought WD40 was the be all and end all! With the exception of duct tape of course! I’ve only had the front door card off to try and sort the mirror (without success) seems to be that the motor isn’t holding it in position. The...

It actually starts as soon as I turn the ignition on - doesn’t have to be started

Yes it does

Hi, I’m new to the forum and have just recently bought a 2004 L322 Vogue. One of the problems being experienced is there is interference on the passenger side speakers when you switch the vehicle on and it continues when the vehicle is started. Radio, etc does work but evidently you have to turn...

Thanks - I’ll have a look and see if I can find it - I didn’t realise site was split into different forums. Regards

Thanks for that - on a tea break from trying to sort the L322 - no joy but at least the weather is good!!!
