Message to BMW owners:
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, you need an R5/FCX!
- Has your BMW ever stalled, been slow to start, idled poorly or hesitated
during acceleration?
- Has the Engine light (also known as the "Check Engine" or "Service Engine
Soon" light) come on when everything seemed fine?
- Have you ever received a costly repair bill and wondered if the repairs
and charges were legitimate?
Without the R5/FCX scan-reset tool from Peake Research, you may be forced
into accepting what the repair/service center tells you and charges you.
Wouldn't it be great to know exactly what's wrong before you bring your BMW in
for a repair? Or, better yet, if you're handy with tools you can avoid the
repair shop altogether- run your own diagnostic and fix the problem yourself!
That is, if your car even needs a repair. Read on..
What is the Engine light trying to tell me?
The BMW Engine light can mean any number of things. Sometimes it's alerting
you to the real need for a repair, so the Engine light is something you should
never ignore. But quite often it is merely indicating one of the many, simple
(top off your coolant, loose gas cap or oil cap) type problems. Imagine paying a
hundred dollars to a repair shop to tighten your radiator cap and reset the
Engine light. Without the R5/FCX, you're stuck staring at your Engine light
until you're in the mood to see the mechanic who can reset it.
Are you starting to see that the R5/FCX makes lot's of financial sense?
There's more..
Routine Maintenance Lights As an added benefit, the R5/FCX includes the
ability to reset the oil service and inspection, routine maintenance lights, and
the maintenance mileage. countdown indicator. Considering that an oil service
for a BMW can sometimes equal the price of the R5/FCX, this feature alone is
worth the price of the R5/FCX.
