no such animal as a 2005 520. is it a 525? The 525 has numerous control modules in the drivers side rear quarter panel, also there may be one in the flat bottom of the trunk. What is not working?

What is the correct year and model? The E60 model 04-05 5 series were notorious for seatmat occupancy detector problems. I think there was even a recall for that causing the airbag light to come on. I don't think I have ever heard of water issues from tint on one of those. Easy to tell, pull the plug and check for corrosion. Good Luck

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
