Anybody in Limerick able to run a diagnostics on an e92?
The 335i has randomly decided it will not start
I put the foot on the brake pedal and push the start button as normal but nothing happens, as if I don't have my foot on the brake pedal (electrics still go on)
I assume the brake switch is fine because I'm still only able to bring the car out of "P" when I have my foot on the brake pedal.
Battery was replaced in January and the car was driven normally until yesterday evening.
Anybody around with diagnostics kit able to help?
Anybody know a good BMW mechanic in Limerick?
Brendan Holmes in Mungret should be able to help you Peter. Not too far from you

Perfect, thanks EndaOriginally Posted by EndaC
Meanwhile, I've checked the relevant fuses behind the glovebox and they're fine, I also checked the engine ground in the engine bay and there are no signs of wires being brittle or water in it or anything like that. Is there anything else I can check myself in the mean time?
Have you tried using both keys Peter ?Perfect, thanks Enda

Sorted Pete?
Not yet
Used my breakdown cover to get towed to Alpina motor works, took 3 people about an hour to push the car uphill out the gate of the house, the truck couldn't drive in because of low hanging trees... Anyway... Eventually got it on the truck and into the garage and waiting on a call back for the diagnosis...
Obligatory tow truck pic...
At least it's nice and clean and looks good even when it's not running
Well it's a small world Peter because that's my dad driving the recovery truckNot yet

No way! Nicest man in Ireland, someone else would've said feck it and took off but he didn't want to leave me stuck and was pushing the car with me to within an inch of his life! RespectWell it's a small world Peter because that's my dad driving the recovery truckNot yet
