BMWs are not designed for hot weather, this is just one example.. The oil pan gasket is an insanely bad idea too. $2,500 leak fix. ( sorry I know it's a little off topic )
You’re 100% right, I come from a long line of e36 ownership and those were made extremely bad back in those days, and seeing how they’ve all sat in the sun for over 2 decades now, almost everything in those cars needs addressing if they haven’t yet haha 😂
My immediate guess is maybe you didn’t snap the connector in all the way, I’d check that and if they still don’t work after that, my only other immediate guess would either be some fuse blew somehow or the switch panel failed for whatever reason, but if they were working before and now aren’t, I’m leaning towards the connector not being fully plugged in 👍🏼
Thanks brother I think you’re right. I broke the grey clip that holds that connection in place and after digging around forums others had the same thing happen.
Thank you!! Details were excellent! My door is no longer sticky!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
Very helpful! Just replace mine in my BMW 535i x drive.
Great video I just did this last week while also replacing the ambient lighting on the door panels with some brighter blue led’s
Thank you!
Thanks dude. Exactly the video I needed. Already got the replacement part just needed to know how to do it.
Glad it was able to help you! 🤝🏼
Good video for those that have not done this repair. If your handles are worn, it is likely the center vent is melting. Thanks again!
Thank you!
What do you mean by the center vent is melting?
I don’t think you’ve ever lived in 120 degree weather brother.
@@guppy738 The interior pieces have a coating that deteriorates over time. Some refer to it as “melting.”
@@evangaudet Nope.

@@Anthony_B Did well :) Took 2.5 hours but well worth :)
Nice video
Thank you!
I face the same problem with my 5 series & it was replaced by BMW service centre in Qatar
Oh nice! Thankfully these pieces are pretty cheap to order online over here in the states, so wasn’t too bad haha
Quick question? Can you tell me your rim setup please and thanks?!
They're just cheap aftermarket wheels, i believe that they are "niche" brand, they came with the car when i bought it
@@Anthony_B Sorry just now seeing this thanks so much love your car
Any ideas why the window switches wouldn’t work after reinstall?
