New to me E70 LCI 2011 - Problems?

Post by Pedro C » Thu Apr 18, 2019 1:49 pm

Hi All.

Joined this forum as it seems the most active for X Cars. Little bit about me, I'm a self confessed BMW man though and through, although they don't make them like they used to!

Just bought the Mrs an E70, which on inspection looked in really good nick. It drives surprisingly well for a monster of a bus.

I was hoping for some advice for the only two niggling problems we've got with the car.

The car as 360 camera's and when putting in reverse, get the camera fault bong, even thought they all work perfectly. I was thinking of taking the boot trim off and inspecting the rear camera connection. Otherwise, what other options do I have here?


The second problem is a slow speed/slow turning shudder though the steering wheel. Car has the staggered 20" wheel set up on star rated Dunlop's which by all accounts look almost new.

I've got the old girl booked in with my BM specialist for a full fluids changed including diffs, gearbox and transfer box. Apart from a new transfer box, which I couldn't stomach at the moment, is there anything else the shudder could be such as tyre pressures? Do they all do this?

TIA :thumbsup:
