How do you remove the head cover gasket off a 1995 BMW 750?
This is not really a job for beginers especially without pictured instrutions. But here is a general basis of what needs to be done. First remove the throttle bodies from the intake manifolds(a 750 is a 12 cylender, 2 manifolds, 2 throttles) then you will need to remove the intake manifolds, for that you will need to remove the metal heat shield covers on the inner portions of the manifold exposing the 11mm nuts holding the intake to the cylender heads...you will need a magnetic 11mm socket so as not to loose these special sized nuts. After removing those bolts you will need to make sure all other retaining screws and vacuum lines have been taken off the intake, the fuel line must be discconected also. Then remove the manifolds exposing the wiring harnness for the injectors, remove this wiring harness and hold it out of the way with a bungee cord of sorts. then you can access the 10mm nuts holding both of the head cover gaskets on....as you can see it is pretty involved. Good luck to you and plan on about 12 hours worth of work time to do this repair.

How do you reset the service light on a 1987 BMW e30?
The simplest answer is find a shop like halfords and purchase a service light resetting switch around £ 25.00. There is a a black round cap that you unscrew in the engine bay left side. You know when you have it as the pins when you remove the cap match the switch.
Just follow the instructions with the switch.

Hey there friend To check if alternator is false or not there is a simple way of doing it without getting to tear entire car and cables apart. Before you do anything loosen the negative cable but so its still connected to batter.
Start the vehicle, if cant slave it off and start it, while vehicle is runing disconnect the negative wire that you have loosened then if vehicle is runing its good if it dies then your alternator went bad and needs replacment.
If you need to drive badly because cant get a ride to get to schucks or some auto parts store you can bang the heck out of the alternator with a hammer which will charge the coil inside and will loosen some of the dust that collected there. That should be enough for you to get to store and back.
Good luck you can always Private msg me if you have any other Auto Questions.
Good Day.

What causes a 2006 BMW 325i door lock problem?
I had this problem with my car (the day after I bought it). There is a special fuse that they need to install in the fuse box that won't blow. The dealer should do it for you for free if you take it to them. In the meantime, you can change the fuse with the same amperage one that is there and they should work for a short time until they blow again. It gets to be a pain.
If you change the fuse for a higher amperage fuse, the motor in the door lock will blow on one side.

How do you get into the boot of a BMW 840 with a dead battery?
You can unlock the doors manually if you turn the key far enough. You can then open the hood and provide power to the vehicle with jumper cables and a donor car. If all else fails you can jack the vehicle up, support it on a jack-stand, and attach a red jumper cable to the starter positive red cable where it connects to the starter and then attach black cable to any metal place on the engine. You can use this procedure to charge the battery with either a battery charger for jumper cables from a donor vehicle.
