1996 BMW 5 Series SE review from UK and Ireland
"I like it in all respects, but for the problem that I have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Difficulty in starting when engine has been running and at optimum temperature. No problem when starting from cold. Condition has been with car since purchased, but can drain battery after several tries to start which it does the majority of times, but did not on three occasions and required jump start.
