Hi Guys, just fitted a new Battery in our Z4 Coupe 07 Si, I've reset the clock, the seat memory, the radio, all fine! For some reason the fan on the heater will only blow very gently, and the heated rear screen doesn't work at all! Any ideas?

It's gone into transport mode. Will need plugging into the diagnostic kit to delete it. The dealers SHOULD "delete" it prior to delivering a new car, but it's quicker for them to just turn it off.. And then this is what happens.

Where are you? A few people including myself on here have the necessary equipment to do it.

Ok, so having found the problem, and speaking to my local main dealer, I feel they should remove this program free of charge! So far I am meeting with some resistance! I'll keep you posted!

Nope! As I thought, they want £50 just to look at it! :headbang:

Don't want to sound thick but I'm a bit behind the times with all this tech stuff! What's that then and how do I work it? :o
