    Arrow 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?

    Perfect, thanks Enda

    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?

    Yep, all the settings changed to the 2nd key preferences but no joy

    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

    Me too Ciars, would be a bad time for something expensive to go what with not working at the moment and all : /
