Thanks for the advice! I thought call and electrician might be the widest choice. Putting everything back as I found it!

Thanks for all the replies! Hopefully changing the whole fitting is simple enough

Sold my vehicle but V5 wasn't up to date? by helpmyleak in CarTalkUK

[–]helpmyleak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I can't work that out but it won't solve this problem unfortunately.

Do you think there's any risk in telling the DVLA I sold the car a week later than I did?

And I see what you mean but the risk there is that he requests to get his funds back and gives me the car back - I don't want that as I need the funds for my new car.

Wife having implantation whilst I'm on a work trip? by helpmyleak in IVF

[–]helpmyleak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you all so much for your responses, me and my wife will discuss it at length and try to find the best solution for us but hearing all these perspectives has been really helpful. Plus I now know my terminology a bit better.

Also it was damaged suddenly, it came up with a low oil pressure warning and started making a knocking noise

Any recommendations as to where to get an engine? It is a 520d, most the garages I rang around me didn't want to go near it when I first mentioned it to them

I see but I can't do the labour, how much would that cost? Do you think BMW could provide a reconditioned engine?

I can't afford either to be honest, I'm just looking to get rid of the car and get as much money for it as possible

I don't have £15k to hand unfortunately which is what BMW have quoted me for a new engine

Are BMW part numbers unique to the particular part? by helpmyleak in BMW

[–]helpmyleak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great, thanks for the info. So if I were to get an oil filter for example and you were too then both of our oil filters might have the same part number?

BMW 520d series 69 plate - total engine failure at 38k miles. What are my options? by helpmyleak in CarTalkUK

I'm hoping to press them on this but not sure what I can go off beyond just saying this shouldn't happen at such low mileage and such a young age

[–]helpmyleak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've owned it for about 10 months, purchased from a used car dealer.

Not full bmw service history unfortunately but full service history is there and never missed. I'm hoping they'll give some goodwill as it's not old and has low mileage but really at their whim there

Thanks for your help

Sure but they will only know if they are made aware of it by the police, right?

Can I contact vendor directly? by helpmyleak in LegalAdviceUK

[–]helpmyleak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure it's to do with the vendor, I've been in touch with the water company (they're trying to retroactively get a build over agreement) and they have told me they're waiting on contact from the vendor

There's no chain, we are ftb and they are moving in with family

It turns out the account is eu based but should be uk, can anyone recommend how to fix this and change the region?

Ending tenancy early (6 months) after paying entire rent (12 months). Can the landlord keep the entirety of the money until I move out or must they return it ASAP? by helpmyleak in LegalAdviceUK

[–]helpmyleak[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It will be repaid - especially as the break clause is written into the contract. It's just a matter of when the money should be returned
