Outside temperature
I purchased a used 2003 Z4 2.5i that was used to run drugs. They tore apart the inside to hide drugs and they trashed the suspension trying to escape the cops. I am working on fixing it up. The problem I'm having right now is with the AC. The outside temperature is reading as -40 degree F. It hasn't moved since I bought the car. The AC doesn't blow cold air. It is charged. Any thoughts?

There should be one of these sticking down in a pocket in the plastic piece under the front bumper in front of the driver side front wheel.
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...e/65816936953/ From your description I wouldn't be surprised if the entire plastic trim piece is gone, sensor and all. Good luck with the project. Maybe you'll find a wad of cash hidden somewhere.

I could never own that car down here near the border! I drive through Border Patrol checkpoints all the time, and they usually have a drug-sniffing dog walking around cars as they creep through. That thing is probably forever tainted to a trained nose like that.
That sensor should be an easy (if not particularly cheap) fix.

As KevinC said, that should be a straightforward fix if you are handy, assuming that the sensor is the culprit.
How is the car otherwise? I can't imagine that its previous owners were very kind to it. But maybe its finally found a home where it will get some much needed and deserved TLC.

Google getting into trunk via rear trunk vent. You need to take rear bumper cover off to do so.
I've read numerous posts on gaining access to trunk via this method
