help for a mate please ! 1999 318i
hey guys my mate has a 1999 318 i sedan Australian model. His problem is that the airbag warning light is constanly on. the stealer said that there was a sensor issue and it was going to cost a grand to fix. The sensor was $100 but the labour is liike 8 hours to replace it. Any ideas or experiences would be appreciated. I know its a 3 series but the only help is ever on the 5 board. I have asked fukem5 but he is busy cane harvesting in siberia at the mo with his nana!
We have done the searches but without results to the questions. Thanks lads

induct him into our world, tell him to get a peake airbag scanner, get the error codes find out what sensor it was and buy it from BMA. and put it in himself. and it won't cost him the 1k that the stealer is quoting.
