x5 E53...cannot start
 

Hello there!!!

My x5 e53 cannot start. When I turn the key I hear a strange and after a few tries I hear nothing...Its is triptonic. How can I move the car from my Garage? Is is a starter issue or battery? Does it have a warning lamp on tha main board?

Please let me know as soon as possible.

I am at home now:(:dunno:

when you turn the key to try to stsrt the car are there any lights on the dashboard?

I dinbt think so...Am I suppose to see any unusual indicator light?

did it make short clicking noises before it went quiet altogether

Yes, It did short noises....what do they mean?? How can I remove the car? my wifes car is blocked now

Put the car into N and push it out. As for it not starting,what sort of noise is it making? does the engine turn over? does everything else on the car work ok i.e radio etc.
regards
dweeb

Can I put the car into N as it is switched off? if yes how? Now it does nothing just turning the key.....:(

It sounds like the battery has drained dead. Either push it out of the garage for now or try giving it a jump until you can diagnose the real issue. Good luck.

Good point didn't think of that ! As said replace the battery or get a jump start assuming you can get another car close enough.
