If it is still stiff, then it means that you don't have any stuck/dried/seized joints. It is something in the steering, not the wheels. 2. If the movements now are easy, then it means that the rack and the pump are good, and your problem is with one of the wheels. 3. The most common causes for AC blowing hot air in BMW 5 Series are low or overcharged refrigerant, compressor malfunction, dirty condenser or evaporator coils, faulty blend door actuator, defective evaporator temperature sensor, bad AC pressure sensor, and bad fuse or relay. Less common causes are clogged expansion valve or orifice tube Aluminum Head bolt. I just got back from the dealership They told me the head bolt beside the oil filter was broken on my 2006 BMW 530 i and that is where my oil leak was coming from. The bolt is just under the intake so the intake would have to be removed to get to it. I'm looking at 4,100.00 + in repairs. The BMW M54 engine, produced from 2000 to 2006, was one of the most competent engines the German manufacturer has built over the last few decades. The fact that it powered everything from the E46 3-Series to performance-oriented models like the E85 Z4, E53 X5, and E65 7-Series is a testament to its capabilities. Over the last 60 days my 2008 E60 550i began loosing time on it's clock at a rate of 3 - 5 minutes daily even after I reset the correct time. Sometimes the time and date disappears on startup and has to be reset. I have not experience any starting problems however when I look at the battery today I notice the green eye on the battery no longer Install the SZL / switch module in reverse order. Reconnect the battery—Star the car. Turn the steering wheel to the right and then to the left. Do this a couple of fo times. Always clear the fault codes when you replace the SZL module on a BMW. Use a BMW-specific scanner [5] to clear codes from the SZL module. Get the maintenance records, if available. Check valve cover gasket for leaks; if it wasn't replaced, very likely it'll need replacement. check the condition of battery and alternator. It's very important to have good battery and properly functioning charging system. .
