I bought Karrin an older BMW 500 series because her daughter totaled our Mopar Caravan. It was mechanic owned and had a very fair sticker of 3K. I did it because I work with the guy and he is a good mechanic and works for beer. I don't want to work on daily drivers after being in this hot fab center all day so I hoped this would be a hint. I don't work on BMW's! When I am coming home from work, I see it at the local Casey's gas station so I stopped. It's a very small town and when the clerk saw me walk in she told me the car stalled, and she had given Karrin a ride home. I go home to get my gas can and jumper cables. I forgot to get the key, so I had to go back home...OOPS. I went to try a quick start and the damn steering column automatically lowered to a comfortable position. (I hope that **** never breaks) It cranked good but no start...low fuel level light on. It took me a while to figure out how to get the fuel door open. (The manual was in German) LOL. I put the gas in and it fired right up. Now when the fuel light is on and you are pulling into the only gas station within 8 miles from home why do you pull up to the front door instead of the pump? get a ride home from the nice clerk rather than put gas in the car? and go back home in the air conditioning? What should I do next? LOL
