#3 of 32 Door opens & dash "alarm" can't be turned off by jking50 Sep 25, 2006 (5:16 pm)
I've had two problems that have stumped the dealer: 1. My driverside door has spontaneously opened 3 times. No seat belt was stuck in the door (it was latched), I didn't unconsciously open the door and the door was not locked. I don't lean on the door. The last time this happened I was doing 80 on I-95 straightaway. You can hear it unlatch and must swing the door open and pull it close. 2. The interior dash "alarm" started beeping for reasons unknown to me. I had trouble getting the car unlocked and had to open/close it with the key several times. The seatbelt was NOT stuck in the door. I opened and closed all the doors and restarted the car 4 times. I had to drive 5 miles with it beeping, then left it (still beeping) while parked and no key in ignition. Came back in 2 hours and it had stopped. Thanks.

Replying to: jking50 (Sep 25, 2006 5:16 pm) Sounds like two electrical problems, potentially related. Replies to this message: jking50 (Oct 02, 2006 11:50 am)

Replying to: dhanley (Sep 25, 2006 6:15 pm) Tech found internal fault in dash cluster and cluster was replaced. Evidently this is a known issue. Hopefully, it was related to the door problems. thank you. CLOSED
#6 of 32 2007 Z4 Cigarette lighter to charge cell phone by jen4227 May 14, 2007 (9:12 am)
I just leased a 2007 z4 and for some reason the cigarette lighter does not work to charge the cell phone. The charger fits in but I am not getting electricity. It seems to work fine as a cigarette lighter...The charger works in other cars. Anyone had this problem? Thanks.

Replying to: jen4227 (May 14, 2007 9:12 am) Just a guess, but could it be a blown fuse? Replies to this message: sylvain1 (Nov 14, 2007 4:32 pm) shutchin (Dec 07, 2007 7:15 pm) esfoad (Dec 12, 2007 7:38 am)

Replying to: claires (May 15, 2007 7:47 pm) I just bought a 2007 Z4 coupe. Have the same problem with my Garmin GPS. I'll take it back to the dealer on Friday. I'll keep you posted with the result of this appointment. Replies to this message: shutchin (Dec 07, 2007 7:15 pm) esfoad (Dec 12, 2007 7:38 am)

Replying to: sylvain1 (Nov 14, 2007 4:32 pm) I also just bought a 2007 Z4 coupe -- same problem -- the salesman said that as long as the lighter works, BMW feels there is no problem, end of conversation. Seems crazy -- I know my charger(s) work on other cars. I hope you will post any result from your appt. Replies to this message: esfoad (Dec 12, 2007 7:38 am)
