Re: Starting Problems 2005 325i

Sounds from here like the starter solenoid is not engaging, do you have a volt meter, if so, set it to 15VDC and hook it to the battery (if in engine compartment), positive and negative terminals (f battery is remote go to the B+ post and a good ground) and with ignition off,take a reading, you should see about 12VDC if the battery is good (just a quick way of checking the battery for its' health) you can do the dame thing with the engine running and you should see about 14VDC (alternator check).
