If your BMW air conditioning has stopped working the chances are you have lost most or all or your system refrigerant. The fastest way of finding out is to attempt to have the system refilled by a specialist. They will evacuate any remaining gases and then pressure test the system before refilling. When mine was pressure tested it was immediately obvious that there was a leak somewhere within the condenser matrix situated in front of the engine radiator.

E46 325, 330 with C38 blower AA Supercharged Cars Operating Instructions

Always allow your engine and supercharger to warm up for at least one minute before placing the car in gear. In colder weather (below 50 degrees Fahrenheit), we recommend at least two-to-three minutes of warm-up time. Always use the best fuel (93 octane) available. If 91 octane is the only available fuel, add an octane booster if you detect any knocking. Active Autowerke calibrates the software to operate on 91 octane, but some cars may experience slight knocking or detonation. Excessive knocking will damage the motor, so pay close attention to any hint of knocking.

DICE ipod BMW Z4 Installation
