Flavius Nicorici says:

the MPH and RPM stop working on the cluster, the fuel and temp and
everything else works .. any idea?

n0rstar says:

Great video and thanks for your help. I found your video while I was
looking for a fix for the trip odometer knob which has stopped working and
it does not seem to have any springing action. It would just stop doing
anything no mater how I turn it. Any idea ? Thanks.

Daniel Izquierdo says:

I did this on my e46 330ci and the button to change the temperature and
other options on the board no longer works, what can i do? help me! the
problem is that i cant change to see the other options,stays on the clock!

mitsakosf says:

thanks. Excellent

Xion Unjust says:

Go ahead, message it to me. But for the leds, I bet they are soldered on.
If you are good at soldering then okay, but if not I wouldn’t try it

what is the finished result?!?

Taylor Montgomery says:

You have my favorite E46 interior color combo, black/brushed silver. So
slick

Andy Ka Ho Leung says:

It helps.. thanks. I use this method to make my stupid AIR BAG light never
on again!!!

Xion Unjust says:

@TheOgnjeni Yes, I have heard that there is a chance of your on-board
computer stalk not working after or other electrical issues. If you take a
minute to disconnect it you should be fine, remember not to close your
trunk, lol.

wtf is a tamper dot

Shaun Dizzel says:

This dude looks like a thief! LOL

Xion Unjust says:

Thank you!! I’m glad that you were able to get the job done right!! 😀 Lol,
I think only 2 people passed by me and they did look. Oh well, lol. It
would have been funny to have to cops knock on the window and ask what I
was doing.

Xion Unjust says:

rofl, no I’m Polish

goldBCFC says:

What is the point

mahenn n says:

“Great work “Thanks

Artur Idziak says:

Hey bro, did you already changed the leds in clusters to other color? I’m
just wondering it is a hard job or not? Best wishes from Poland

jed1116 says:

@TheEdreardon There will be a tamper dot on your dash.

Jaroslaw Adamkiewicz says:

@XionUnjust the dot shows up if the mileage on the instrument cluster does
not match the other few computers…

Did this mod produce an extra 30 horsepower?

Eddie po says:

Send this video to GM, Ford, and Chrysler.. let them see how easy this was
to do. Maybe they will get a clue !

DENNISATHAN says:

Very usefull video thanks

dionisis koutas says:

eddienyc87.eb@gmail.com says:

wow i knew you had a 330i just before you said it, i could tell by looking
at the gauges. I got a 325i E46. Nice car love it. By any chance do you
know any headers that would fit an M56 Engine ?

Xion Unjust says:

Omhl from fanatics I assume. You’re welcome dude. -Solidjake

Volkan Metli says:

Xion Unjust says:

mujjuman says:

eddienyc87.eb@gmail.com says:

Daniel Izquierdo says:

@XionUnjust What do you mean with stalk? the harness behind the cluster?

NhlFan93 says:

UNPLUG THE BATTERY BEFORE DOING THESE! (or else your speed meter may not
work or being slowed..)

Xion Unjust says:

Lol, I’ve never been in a Fiat and I have no idea how they are. Sorry

Robby says:

Hi – Just wanted to say thanks for all the E46 videos. I’m an E46 owner and
I enjoy watching and appreciate all the work you put in making and
uploading the vids. They’re great, very informative and helpful. Thanks
very much.

a2b3c4d5 says:

great vid, do you need to unplug the battery first? and do you also remove
the reset pins from the front or you just leave them in?

TheEdreardon says:

I know, I was just wondering because my car may have been alterd
