FYI here is the ad on AutoTrader. Includes a link to the AutoChek Vehicle History that i purchased from AutoTrader. Didn't purchase a CarFax but in my experience (buying and selling) CarFax and AutoChek are similiar in their checks...

That would be me! :-) Really hate to sell, but the wife has forced a sale with a recent acquisition of a 2003 540 Sport 6 speed. The LSE needs nothing that I'm aware of. Last issue was a swaybar bushing bolt that was cross threaded. Local shop took care of that for me on Saturday. Beyond...

New model board with micro switches here

Worn dot is easier to see here

Wish I would have seen this post before the order. Lol. You are mostly correct. I was able to use the new rubber but yes, no membrane on new version. Best solution to my original problem remains turning membrane 180 degrees. Pic on right is membrane in original position and pic on left is after...

So turns out the issue keeps returning. Upon inspection of the fob internals it appears that the thin membrane part (thin plastic sheet that resides on the underside of the rubber buttons but on top of the actual circuit board) has worn down where the membrane touches the part of circuit board...

Very true. Thanks for that info guys.

Seat bottom will be easy but are seat backs leathers even possible to swap since the airbags appear to be built in to the leather seat back? Trying to even out the wear on the leather on my 2002 LSE

I'm on my third set of Nexxens. Cheap? Yes. Quiet through life of tire? YES. Good traction for street and decent wear? Yes

Thanks much and yes, this was the EXACT problem. I had forgotten that my backup remote actually wasnt almost new like I mentioned in the first post. I had used it for the first 5 years I had the car (its a 2002 that I bought new) and now that I recall, ran into the same issue, then put it away...

THe trunk release works fine, the panic works fine, locking the doors works fine. BUt the unlock feature has slowly started to deteriorate. I now have to carefully and firmly press the unlock button 7-8 times before the LSE unlocks. I've put in a new remote battery, and tried with my backup...

Reminds me of the tens of MILLIONS of dollars DC generates from their speed cameras. Which are allegedly solely for "safety", but one of their biggest revenue generators is stationed along a 55mph highway that has concrete barriers on either side (straightaway) and the road is exiting DC. I...

BullSchmidt. I see you enjoy trips to MExico as well. If you've never been, consider checking out Isla Mujeres. #10 top beach in the world per TripAdvisor. Trust me..you'd love Isla.

In case any LS owners are into them..just got one a week ago. Video of my flight this weekend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXdiDtJohac
