Right, i need to get this sorted, its been doing me nut in for the last 6 months!
Ive heard its a common fault on the 850 Rapid-dog carrying chariot!
My ABS/ TRACS sensor seems to have been possessed by the devil and seems to come on and off whenever it pleases! My dash currently resembles the mothership off Close Encounters!
Now, I aint a McClaren chief mechanic, but I reckon that theres a loose wire somewhere on the main unit. This is fine, but the problem I have is that
A- Im not a Chinese contortionist, so i cant get to the bolts (you think i would being an ex-alfa owner, who puts an engin in tilted 60 degrees!
B- I havent got a clue what size the bolts are to remove said unit!
I was just wandering if anybody could tell me if this is a common fault, and if so, would it be better to replace the whole unit instead of trying to solder my thumbs to it!
I reckon a re-conditioned one off flea-bay will do the trick!
Cheer, Dez
P.S Why whenever u get your car MOTd do you feel like somebodies been making love to your rear without
A- asking for your permission or
B- having the common decency to give u a reach round!
£360 TO GET A 12 YEAR OLD CAR THROUGH!! Still, its worth it to see that Chavs face as a 850 T5 estate chews there ****ty BMW up! LOVE IT!
