Bump starting bmw with push button start.
Discussion
Hi folks
I think my starter motor has packed in this morning. Its a 2006 BMW 530i sport with n52 engine. Took a few attempts to get started this morning, just clicking no cranking at first then fired up. Drove to work now just clicks. I've tried jumping with leads but still the same and seems like plenty of power to lights dash etc which leads me to believe its the starter motor.
What I am wanting to know is if it is the starter, is it possible to bump start (or push start) the car. If so how do you go about doing it on a car that starts on the button and requires the clutch to be depressed first?.
