Hi Folks,
I have a 2015 825i and have discovered that the front differential is not engaging when I press the switch and apply throttle. I have checked the wire harness and applied dielectric grease. I have tried to check the continuity on the solenoid, it is supposed to 5.5 +- 2 Ohms. I removed the cap off the top of the solenoid but can not slide the solenoid off the top of the engagement rod because it is blocked by the steering rack. Does anyone have advice for changing the solenoid, specifically how to remove it?
