Just recently moved to the city and didn't know not every address is eligible for the parking scheme.

In my area there are plenty of empty spots and am wondering if anyone here has applied in a special way and been approved or what other options I have other than renting a car spot?

Thanks... :\

Dude; the cheapest and best way of getting a car spot in the city is to rent one!!! I've seen them for as low as $40 a week (full lockup security)... shop around, you'd be surprised how many people in an apartment block don't own cars.

I actually have a bad lower back and to a lesser extent foot- both which might fit me into the eligibility of the Mobility Parking Scheme - which means you can park over the metered time.

I just don't know of a doctor who would sign it for me, feels a bit ridiculous asking for a parking permit for a bum knee - because I actually would never use the para blue parking spots EVER, there are much worse off people.

On the other hand if I fit into the guidelines and it means I can get a sticker that'll let me park out the front of my house I don't see the harm.

Does anyone know of doctors who do this sort of stuff? Or is any doctor ok?

If you can get an MPS, you can park for up to 2hrs in a 30min zone, and all day in any spot rated over an hour. And you don't have to pay for metered parking, which will save you a hell of a lot of money.

    • A quick google, and some E39 users have found pulling my sensor out/apart and cleaning it alleviates their issue. Then get the oil warning to go off, and once it is off (from the sensor saying it was unhappy) some find they can just unplug it and it is happy to just keep going now. Maybe give it a crack? If you can actually pull the sensor apart, hit it with some electrical contact cleaner.
    • Yep. In the E39 it's slightly different than the others. Honestly I'd just leave it but every time I drive the car it tells me oil is low and that just makes me check the dipstick. It is a BMW Afterall and it tries to expel it's own oil regularly.  Thankfully it's not like my E90 that has no dipstick at all so you just gotta trust it. 
    • Was that also a typo? $350?! Just typing "BMW oil level sensor" and prices start out a lot more sanely than $350. I'm guessing it's a sensor used in one low volume model only or something?
    • They kept the product number the same, so we "didn't pick it up when packing your order". If you packed the order, you clearly saw the box wasn't Hella...
    • Actually, the equivalent skyline part is both cheaper and simpler, maybe you should come back from the dark side?
