Yes both breathers are terminated in the rear r/h wheel arch above the liner

Pls take it back to dealer and get them to lower the level as the correct level is to the hole then remove x ml of oil for both the halex and diff separate oils ( ford when can a level hole not be a level hole if it's a ford !!!)

[Immobiliser problems-help!]

Hi not read your previous posts but

What your saying imobilizer light flashing and not starting if left unlocked is totally normal it's passive arming so if left will auto arm its self

Standard feature just push the unlock button on remote.

All cars ect are best left locked at all times as they have been programmed to shut down ecu' s and not flatten the battery ect

Hope this helps

[Soaking wet boot toolbox well]

Most leak from tail door glass to seal area

Some leak at the l/h middle seal distorts look for water marks where it's running in

Water will find the lowers point

But yes the easyist and cheapest is poke a screw driver the through the carpet and if u look under car there is a body seal ( round grommet ) in the floor of the cubby box slide a flat blade screwdriver in the edge and will let water out

Done this many times for owners

Will dry out but if u prop the box lid up will dry lot quicker

Sounds to me like its the engine breather in the rocker cover is blocked and causing your problems if I were u I would convert it using the BMW parts to a cyclone type much more reliable

Hi very common u have probably hit the spare wheel- mount and bent the door very easy fix

Remove the door trim

Roll door match over and lift up window

The get a large block of wood and hammer and gently straighten the door
