    Yellow traction and handbrake light on...

    Boys - these came on permanently very soon after changing the rims from grey to black and only about 100 miles after an Insp 1 and health check.

    I know what the manual says, but any experience? Thoughts ?

    Not worried abt lack is TC but the handbrake yellow suggests brake assist affected ?

    Is this another gremlin caused by rim change?

            Could also be steering angle sensor. That's what mine was for some unknown reason as it just randomly popped up over a month after getting tracking done.

            Best to get it plugged in using BMW software if you know anyone, I have it on a laptop which is handy as hell as you can also reset things if they do pop up.
