So as per my other post/s I have an alarm fault which according to a diagnostic reader is the inclination or tilt sensor part number 65756923210
I ordered a replacement from BMW which took 3 days as it was only held in the central German warehouse. Part arrived and went to fit but it
appears you need to remove the left side boot trim panel and plastic bracket as the sensor is too large to fit through the narrow gap.
The replacement sensor which is a revised part number is much smaller but has a different connector which means you also need a
adapter cable to plug it in. part number 65758380747 ( I had one in stock which I bought a year ago as I have been collecting parts which may become
NLA - which I get some ribbing for on the forum but again I would rather have the parts ready when or if I need them. So I will need to wait for better weather
and have the pleasure of removing the boot trim.
