Observation and questions

Hello, Couple of things: 1. I did not receive a service book with my F15, I assume that services are logged on the vehicles I Drive? If this is the case, are independent service stations able to record these services on the I Drive? 2. On my E70 I could not see the radiator as there were slates in f...

Re: Advanced Car Eye

Right I have cracked it :D After a bit of Googling which initially suggested using BMW Advance Car Eye viewer, except it did not see the files on the SD card :cry: So the recordings are on AVI files and unlike the BMW Advance car eye manual stating that the front and rear camera recordings are store...

Re: Advanced Car Eye

Thanks for the replies. My mobile is an Android, I have download a video from the car eye onto the mobile. I get the option to watch either front or rear video on my mobile. The downloaded video is showing in My ACE app. I have connected the phone to my PC and cannot find that app and no trace of th...

Advanced Car Eye

Some assistance required please I know that my advanced car eye is recording both front and back and according to the manual these recordings go to the SD card. When I look on the SD card there are no recordings of the rear camera (file should end with an A). So where are they? I have seen recording...

Re: Upgraded to the F15

So I have had the Advanced Eye fitted, I will have a play with that tonight.
Also had the EGR cooler recall as per BMW guidelines.
I asked to have the Adblue topped up which they did, 10 litres and I wasn't charged for that - bargain :)

Re: Upgraded to the F15

Thanks X5Sport, You can get a small container with the correct adapter from Amazon if necessary. I bought one a few years back to top the Škoda up (that used three times more than my F46 with the same sized engine does!). I just transfer from a 10L container to this and that’s it. No forecourts arou...

Re: Upgraded to the F15

AdBlue- Any suggestions where to get an AdBlue adaptor other than at a BMW dealer? (I'm in no rush I have a 1000 miles to go) :D

Re: Upgraded to the F15

Hello Mark,
Thanks for the heads up, but as I only used my winter tyres a couple of times since I brought them ( we don't get that much snow/cold weather down South!).
I think I will go a long the lines of using snow socks.
Cheers

Re: Upgraded to the F15

Hello Sid,
Thanks for that, yes the tyres have Rdci valves and I did notice that it has different tyre sizes.
So I don't think they will fit.

Re: Upgraded to the F15

I assume that my 18" wheels from my E70 will not fit onto the F15 with 19" wheels?

Upgraded to the F15

Hello,
Having had a E70 SE for four years I have treated myself to a F15 3.0 M Sport (2016).
A bit like chalk and cheese, but I'm very impressed with the new car.
Does any one know where (other than going to BMW) where I can get the torque settings for the wheel nuts?
