New to the 7 series HOWEVER I had a few older bimmers back in the day, I had a BAVARIA and a 3.0si. The BAV had all kinds of electrical issues and the 3.0si I rebuilt the car and blew the motor TWICE[?|].

Now I am back into the BMW world and trying to get my New to me BMW's little issues cleaned up. The car and interior is 110%. No leaks, no strange noises and she rides 120%.

ISSUES I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET FIXED:
Car came with no remotes, bought a used key from Ebay and it will not program to open the doors, trunk. I have followed the directions from the manual, I dunno. Thinking of putting in an after-market keyless entry system in. So if I lose the FOB it will not be hundreds to replace. Anyone have experience with after market systems like this?

The SRS light is on. The previous owner/dealer said the batter died from sitting in the warehouse and that is why it came on, we'll see...

The dying PIXEL issues on the MID have me a bit up in the air. Trying to get it replaced via BMWNA... again we'll see if she answers. I re-sent the email today.

Don't know what kind of power steering fluid to use in this one other than BMW brand, is there one?

I love this car! But want to get it 100% [bigcry]

Your power steering fluid is Pentosin 11S , about $21.29 from Pelican Parts. Not sure about your other issues. The PS fluid is expensive, but I caution you, do NOT use ATF it will ruin your system and cost $$$$ to repair.

PS thanks for your service to our country!
