:D Victory!!!!! Had to remove the rear wheel and partial fender to access the inferior portion of the fuse box. I swear a jolt of terror ripped thru my head staring at what seemed to be 10 thousand wires all in neat bundles. I’m thinking I must be insane only a BMW neurologist or a crazy person woul...

Well I decided to take it to the dealer. Brown Motor Works BMW in Pomona checked for fault codes. Diagnostic testing found that " checked harness to ABS module one of the wires are grounded and that additional diagnosis would involve opening the wiring harness to find which wire is causing the ...

The sequence of events before the rear brake failure were as follow: I was returning from the mountains when I was caught in a sudden rain storm lasting about 15 minutes. Immediately I noticed that the general warning light was on. The ABS light was not on. Rear brake appeared to be functioning. Whe...

Yes, the rear brake was working before I started the bleed. It started to fail after installing a new tail light. I test it a couple of time by placing pressure on the foot pedal. At first it worked and then nothing. Could it be a brake light switch? And does the switch control both the brake light ...

I was in the process of flushing and bleeding the ABS. I have preformed this service twice before over the past 3 years without issue. But this time when servicing the rear wheel circuit I turned on the ignition to allow the ABS to initialize but when I applied pressure on the footbrake pedal the pu...

The general warning light went on today (it's the light with a ! triangled and shares space with the "brake failure" warning light) The ABS warning light/brake failure light is off. The bmw riders manual on page 75, diagrams that if the general warning light is on and the ABS warning light...

Consider adding Canari Velo Gel Cycling Short Mens for $40. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1891049 Excellent quality for the $$$... The sizes run large. I ordered a lg and xlg. I'm 6'1" and 190# with a 36" waist. The large fit the best. These pants along with...

Good point...the same thing happened to me and delayed a much needed trip. Ruined a pair of boots and pants. I know it's extreme but now I carry a spare on board. BMW sells the gasket for $7.45 each. Part number 1147668216.

Thank you for your replies, suggestions and ideas.

Also, could you please tell me...what length of FI hose for complete change over?

I’m unfortunately experiencing the dreaded fuel line leak. Although it paradoxically cures itself after a five minute warm-up the thought of impending doom makes riding the Roadster feel more like a root canal. I need to tackle this issue and reluctant to visit the dealer. My question is are ...
