E92 325i won't start or crank.

Hello,
My 325i won't start after stalling it. Been through the obvious things and tried jump start it with no luck. Also tried to tow it and bump start it which didn't work. There is no warning lights on the dash. And when try to start you can hear the fuel pump kick in. No clicking or any noise from the starter motor.
I've changed a common relay in the glove box which seems be common which didn't work so abit out of ideas.
Did think of starter motor but zero sound coming from it and wouldn't the car of started when I tried to bump start it whilst towing?
Cheers for your help.

I presume your battery's super healthy..?

You should be getting sounds from the starter. Is it stuck?

Try gently rocking the car back and forth whilst in gear, then try starting it again. Phil is right too, make sure your batter is fully charged. The other way to disengage a stuck starter is to twat it with a hammer. Easy place to start even if it`s not that.
