2004 BMW 325 REPLACED STARTER

The problem might be the alarm, is it the stock BMW alarm?

Try disconnecting the alarm module. It is in the wiper tub, removal of the pollen filter housing and the firewall cover is first. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=ET37&mospid=47720&btnr=64_0847&hg=64&fg=10

It will require a T-30 Torx driver.

Turning the key to the run position is the reset for the factory alarm. The crank no start condition is not usually associated with EWS, it will deactivate the starter and the fuel injection and the ignition. Having said that, I would perform a scan of the car with the proprietary BMW software to uncover faults (if any) Simply replacing a starter does not seem to have these implications, it almost seems there is some other issue at play here. EWS is the drive away protection, it is separate from the car alarm, it reads the chip in the key and then a "handshake" is performed, when this is satisfied, the DME allows the starter to engage, fuel and spark to occur. All BMW cars in the 2004 model year have this, the car alarm does not come as standard equipment, it is prewired for it but it has to be installed and coded to the car.

The DMTL codes are possibly a loose fuel cap and/or a tank vent valve issue.

Generic fault codes are captured in the link above.

This is what it looks like, #4. It is in the area behind the pollen filter/fire wall cover, it takes a T30 Torx driver.

Pretty cool link too!
