fun isn't it, my z4 went into a garage for some work, I collected it roof down, got home and roof motor wouldn't work, took it back and was shown the red ring pull to disengage the motor, slotted it back in with a twist and all worked.
My z4 headlights don't work so I changed the main beam and high beam bulbs then they worked again for 2 days and stopped again also doesn't show indicators lights on dashboard when this happens any ideas greatly appreciated
I have a 2003 BMW Z4 I have put a new electric motor for the hydraulic set up for the convertible top it will unlock at the top by the windshield but when it does it's like after I pull the red pin in the back and turn it sideways the car top still won't go down manually stuck halfway up I'm afraid to force it down does there have to be hydraulic fluid in the lines or in the reservoir where the electric motor is back there in the trunk Ford to go down manually
Cars are like children, they never do what they should on camera. Is that roof Hydraulic with the electric motor running a pump or is it run with the electric motor? The last convertible I had was a 1986 and used electric/ hydraulic roof mechanism. The roof pump/ motor was expensive to replace then, thinking $500. Thanks for video and get better for riding season.

This video is hilarious😂 great video nonetheless
At least you tried. Thank you
I love this video ,its like if i made a video ,it all goes wrong hahah my buttons flash red and theres no noise or anything trying to latch or move
I still can't get the roof to operate manually 🤣
I have exactly the same problem :(
Thank you for this explanation
It's the same thing in mine. Whether the red hook is pulled or not, when he wants he gets up or he doesn't get up! You can't understand how it works.
Seems more like you are low on fluid and not a bad motor. The actual valve bypass gets corroded on the valve body and the pull doesn't work.
Thank you, I'll have to have a look at it and see if I can top up the fluid if it's low
Aha thanks my red pull doesn't feel like it's doing anything 😊

But how to top up fluid?

It's a pain isn't it when the red pin wont allow you to operate it manually.
