So apparently my starter died (I'll have to change the fuel pump myself but thankfully that is much easier), also getting my tranny mounts changed. All this for $100 copay and I had an E90 loaner

thank bro, I'm so happy I bought this warranty. Now I'm getting sad I didnt buy more miles. I have around 2 years/19k miles left on it
Clayed, compounded, waxed and ready for h20.
Minor casualty from all that rubbing.

Today after work my radio stopped working when I tried to power it on. No matter how many times I tried to push the power button the radio stayed off so I drove home w/o tunes... checked fuses and they were all good. I then texted Steve (SNA77) and he told me to disconnect the battery and leave it disconnected for at least 16 minutes to reset all modules. I did this and reconnected the battery....turned my car on and then turned on the radio.....it worked flawlessly....
Learned something today, didn't cross my mind to disconnect my battery to reset my modules. A big thanks to Steve for his recommendation!![]()

Happy to help... Obviously I've been down that road before.Car computers are just like any other computer... Computer software has bugs, and it's amazing how pulling the plug on anything electrical can solve many problems..
Speaking of BMW53 radios... Our 2004 cars will have an older part #. I replaced mine with the 65126988276 part number a few years ago. It was $200 with the core of my old BM53 radio, which is a great deal. It was a remanufactured unit that had the final software revision on it (radios are not software upgradeable). Basically all the kinks had been worked out, updated etc (There were SIX newer revisions than my 2004 radio). Requires no coding, and is a direct plug and play replacement.
