Well, I get in the car and listen to the radio for around ten minutes without the engine running while I read the operating instructions. Well, I go to start the car and it just flashes the lights three times and that is it. Any help please. This might be a seperate issue, but I got the car back today and the IFKM is on the fritz!!!

Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You guys might want to try giving Wurth a call and asking for the name & number of the rep in your area. Their customer service department was very helpful when I was looking for some Wurth products... Phone number is on their web site, www.wurthusa.com.

Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> About 3 or 4 times over the last few weeks I have smelled a strange smell when coming home in my 96 318ti Sport. I drive about 30 miles to work and back, but I have only sensed this smell when I turn into my drive when coming home. I notice it as I make my turn into the drive, a low speed right hander. Sometimes it is only a wiff, tonight it stayed with me in the cockpit until I parked in the carport and opened the door, then it faded. It has what seems like the exact same smell as a freshly snuffed candle, just a plain ol' candle. Any ideas?
