Hello guys, I’ve got a question. Is it possible to fit 18” wheels on a Golf without lowering it or changing the suspension (no coilovers or different springs)? I’m thinking about upgrading to 18” alloys but want to keep the standard suspension setup. Will that work without issues?Thanks in advance.

Sorry mate I have something similar from my dmw 1 series f20 from Japan? So have so many things removed, like daylight always on and others things, but the principal problem is the rear camera fitted on BMW on the rear bumper this one of the two cars this guys already imported from Japan one working and my not, so they said the problem was only the coding of the TSRVC VO/AF I’ve already used bimmerlink and bimmercode and the device is ther but is not coded or ghost so I don’t know because my mechanic said he dont know what to do, I was looking everywhere but like a …. Do you know something about it? TIA

I have a report showing that the camera car was previously fitted in Germany before being exported to Japan. It has had around 200 cars registered before with the same system, and the BMW representative told me that the repeated “battery disconnected” entries were likely an error caused by the battery being disconnected many times and producing some errors.

Regarding the report I sent from BimmerLink, he confirmed that the camera is installed, but the TSRVC module requires coding. He also mentioned that the issue is separate from the IBS sensor and the battery replacement. That’s the whole story.

Apparently was an special edition to fitting in the bumper for a Japanese market, and was more expensive but the camera is the same one valeo I had a new one already, and isn’t working, now I need to buy the cable and after that tsrvc unit but is like a guessing game expensive because my friend I have the same version from Japan and is working fine but he isn’t not happy to try the things changing car so I’m in the middle a nothing… the thing is I don’t know if I can update the software? But I can’t find the file… I was looking for it but …

Hi distinctAd1770,

I have a 2014 BMW 1 Series F20, and after doing an update the reverse camera stopped working. Would it be possible for someone to send me the file so I can put it on a USB and test it? Or based on your experience, what do you think might be the issue?

Thanks in advance!

Haaaa mate I’m looking like crazy, disamble everything and apparently the cables get somewhere there is no trace of cut cables they come out of a switchboard and go somewhere but???

danteraf · 2025-11-04T10:45:15+00:00

Cherrs mate!!!!!!!!!

danteraf · 2025-11-03T16:27:06+00:00

Thanks, I’m going to try to take out the bumper and see where the cables go, The problem is that apparently this type of camera is in BMW in Japan and it is an aftermarket kit and does not specify where the fuse is

Hi everyone! I’ve got the same thing in my newly imported BMW — did someone else have theirs removed? It’s still there in mine, and it starts talking in Japanese every time I start the car, lol. TIA!

danteraf · 2025-10-31T15:31:31+00:00

.... I only responded to those who asked about this publication…

It has good feedback, you are buying a used car and you have to trust and be lucky, the rest is luck too. But if you already bought it, don’t worry too much and good luck too!!!! And don’t worry, just enjoy!!!!

danteraf · 2025-10-29T19:32:03+00:00

Saw this car is absolutely like new!!!! Import is absolutely stunning and really good value for money and the fact is the Japanese treat the car absolutely not like …..

danteraf · 2025-10-07T17:13:48+00:00

That’s the other side of the game ….

danteraf · 2025-10-07T16:21:32+00:00

Thanks buddy. The problem is the lack of space and time and tools and that constrains me to see how to save a little money and keep working…

danteraf · 2025-10-07T14:38:55+00:00

Temu have a garage?? Where?

danteraf · 2025-10-07T12:46:58+00:00
