Post by: M-Tek Performance on 17 September 2007, 12:02:01: Hi,

If I wanted to put cruise control on a 2.5 TD, if i bought the correct stalk, what would I need to do to get it working?

I know, but its a case of buying a TD or buying a V6 and having it converted.

the V6 will be around the £1k mark, plus another £1300 to convert.

the TD is probably around £1500.

The correct VX part is 9181012 (2 wire type)

Most facelift diesels were 2.2DTi

Post by: TheBoy on 17 September 2007, 23:31:06: All 2.5TDs have cruise enabled in ECU. This causes ECU to store an error if you don't have a stalk fitted - typical BMW!
