[QUOTE="5series, post: 51669, member: 376"] In fact when I checked with majority of workshops (including the famous one in the forum) around town, nobody confirm the OBC is able to use in a local made E34. All were saying unless your E34 is an imported one, otherwise, there isn't any connection to the ECU, don't waste money. As the article was so interesting & it doesn't cost much for the upgrade, hence, decided to take it a try. Ehhhh... it works. That's also proof that our local mechanics are not expert either! Most of the time, they will tell you "this one cannot.... that one cannot....." cos' they are NOT SURE or DON'T KNOW. Damn!! That's why a lot of our "Ultimate Driving Machines" became their "tester" & turned it to "Ultra Demaging Machines". Anyway, most of my problems solved and my next upgrade is to fix an outside tempreture sensor to obtain the right reading. Has anybody here fixed that before? Can we transplant the E32/E39 tempreture sensor to E34? How's the set up? [/QUOTE]
