Rough idle engine and transmission failsafe.

That fuse was put forward as the cause in post# 7:

You are correct! You did say that one. I looked at your pic before and didn’t understand what one you were talking about I guess. I was looking for 4 fuses and mine had 5. I guess I checked the wrong place. Man I wish I would have realized that sooner. Like I said it was right in front of me starring me in the face. Thanks again though.

What sux is it looks like the whole low voltage issue with the battery and then needing to jump start it took out my MKIII nav unit. I didn’t think about unhooking it when jump starting the car. It was probably too late at the point anyway. I don’t use the navigation anyway, but I need it for my radio.

Get a MKIV. Way better and you can find them for cheap. I think I paid $50.

Right now not seeing much under $200

I got one off CL for $60 shipped. I'm in your case, just want the radio to work.

I got mine on ebay. The one before that (also a MKIV) that I ended up frying with INPA or something I got by searching car-part.com. Search for a cd player in a 2003 or newer X5 and it'll give you the option to choose GPS drive. Still need to weed through the listings to find one from a newer car.

Yeah I really only need it for the radio but I do keep the map on in perspective mode when driving around. Looks cooler than the radio interface screen.
