Confirmed that he was conned. Who in the right mind charge RM600 for bloody programming. All it is doing is just resetting the counter for engine oil and other stuff.

Ask him to contact Jack (012-6603181 / 012-7918824) at Jng Auto Service located in Sunway (same row as Everco exhaust and Hup Soon). I send my car there for service and his prices are very reasonable.

If he is busy you can also look for Moteren in the other end of Sunway (the same area as the Taylors Lakeside Campus, near Motorsport Playground).

No it doesn't need extensive programs.

First he was charged RM2500 for the steering angle sensor.

OEM sensors are around USD$200 on eBay while original ones are around USD$400

Once you have installed the sensor, this is taken from the folks who mostly DIY their fixes.

ok your steering wheel will cause youre steering angle sensor to set a fault al affecrt the dsc if your steering wheel is way off. The good news is they are easy to reset, just disconnect your battery for about 15 minutes. once you reconnect the battery and start the car, the tracking light (and maybe the dsc light I really don't remember) will be on. turnign the steering wheel from lock to lock will calibrate the steering wheel sensor. now the sensor is calibrated to the lock to lock motion of the wheels not how the steering wheel is positioned.
forgot the point to this post, go to the indy shop, once you have a good alignment with a straight steering wheel disconnect the battery and go lock to lock to calibrate the sensor and your done


At the BMW dealership, the moment they install your steering angle sensor, they will just reset it and do a lock to lock calibration.

Thinking of a recond E60 LCI with N53 engine. Any owners here facing big problems with N53? Like injector clogging up, intake valve carbon deposits, coils issue and fuel pump failure?

Try to avoid BMW above 5 years old, i learnt my lesson, my E60 repairs alone cost me more than RM35k stretch of 4 years ownership (Not including routine servicing.) I thought i got a lemon but did some survey among friends who owned E60 preLCI or LCI gave pretty much the same problems.

Is your car a local 2nd hand or recon unreg? I thought of getting the paid warranty like Opal when buying the car.
