With a discerning mind, that vehicle is not moving. From the first picture to the last i noticed the vehicle is still at the same spot where we have the streetlight pole.....definitely he’s trying to work on it. OP u can’t deceive everyone okay.
Use that same street pole as a reference point and see if your statement makes sense.

Abujabir24:
Around 2005, I was travelling from Kaduna to PHC with ABC transport. When we got to lokoja, the bus left me while I was attending the call to nature. I was dumbfounded, didn't know what to do. When I started crying and explaining to some policemen, they directed me to ABC office in lokoja. I laid my complaints and the manager told me to wait for another bus coming from Abuja but will only stop at enugu. When the bus arrived I boarded it and told the manager to give me transport to phc from enugu. He gave me 2k and I was happy. When we got to enugu, I entered phc bound bus. Since I had enough with me I paid for two sits and occupied the front sit. Upon reaching phc I went straight to ABC office and demanded to see the manager. I told him I was the passenger that was left behind in lokoja and he pleaded with that he was sorry bla bla bla. I told him I had no money and he gave me 3k. I was so happy. I went home and told my parents what happened they were surprised I handled it on my own without calling them.
You're smart

Not alleging that it's the answer but if it were my car then I would be haunting this thread:

https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1727736-e46-auto-transmission-warning-light!

1) Are your break lights working?

2) Have you checked under the car near the trans to see if there are any dangly bits? grin

3) Are your gear indicators lights illuminating?

4) How's your battery voltage?
Wow, many thanks sir. I'll run a check on the above. Gear lights are illuminating and the battery is a new 75amp.

I'm out of town but I'll scan as soon as I return.

Car Talk › Cog Light On Gear E46 BMW by laivwire(op): 10:00am On Sep 09, 2018
BMW users abeg oh. This issue based on my research happens to many e46 owners. The transmission shifts well but as soon as it enters the 5th gear, it enters limp (safe) mode and stays stuck on the 4th gear hence I can't travel. Online users have stated a myriad of reasons like the MAF sensor, transmission harness, transmission filter etc.

I handed the car to a BMW tech in Ib here but the same issues have come up almost immediately I got it back from him. I'm going to get the car scanned monday but anyone else experienced this same issue. Help me save my time on repairs.

Cc Uboma, Yungboss again. Abeg respond.

Thanks

uboma:
Hello Friend,


Sorry for the late response. I had to attend a wedding all day.


The E46 is a great car and less problematic (I can say this with all confidence from my experience with the E46 Touring Bimmer). I have used this car for 4 years and counting.

So far, I have replaced the fuel and water pumps once. I recently replaced the control arms, tie rods and stabiliser linkages for both front legs due to the bad roads in my area. The window regulator will also go bad as I have had to fix the front windows on separate occasions. The yellow oil sensor light always comes on at every start even after replacing the oil with a new engine oil. All these are minor issues which should not discourage you.

There was a time I had an issue with my gear. The car dragged when driving uphill. I replaced the gear oil but with little improvement. I later discovered that it was an electrical problem after a competent "rewire" who also doubles as a Bimmer fan, did the quick fix. It is two years now and I have not had this issue again.

Kindly list the negative reviews you have received about this model so we can analyse it together.



By the way, is the E30 on your profile page for sale? I am interested if it is....
Many thanks for your post. Reviews of the 323 online have been great in contrast to those for 325s & 328s. Sensors always breaking down, belts snapping and general maintenance costs are over the roof.

My naija guys here also say its parts are costlier to fix and resell value is low as many nigerians prefer the 4 plug engines.

Truth here is I've used a 325is (e36) with this same engine size and I faced no issues, I had a blast stomping the i6 and I desire that feel again. I just hope its the same with the e46. I think I'll go for it then.

The e30 was my last restoration project. Sold it off last month smiley

Car Talk › What's Your Experience With The E46 BMW 325i by laivwire(op): 12:06pm On Aug 25, 2018
I'm about buying a clean 2000 Bmw 325i but I need some input before making a final decision. If this deal pulls through it will be my 5th BMW (my first e46 though) but I've gotten quite some negative reviews about the car in question basically bordering on the reliability of the particular double vanos 2.5ltr engine.

I'm not interested in a smaller engine and the car in question is clean and used by a BMW mechanic. It's a steptronic transmission too.

I'd like to know the common issues with Nigerian used 325s. Are they reliable like e36? What's the average cost of maintenance (I'm not concerned about fuel).

I'll apreocate your urgent input so I don't miss out on the deal too.

Thanks
