My better half managed to break the plastic switch the operates the electric park brake on my X5 (hauling up on it as though it was a mechanical park brake). The plastic cracked and it now comes off if you're not careful.
Apparently, the entire centre console has to be opened up, the electronic module it is embedded in replaced and then the car re-programmed to recognise the new switch - around $600.
Based on your post, I've now forbidden her from using the panoramic sunroof
The passenger-side mirror stopped automatically dipping when I select reverse quite some time ago but frankly, I don't care...
Next daily driver will be simpler.
