scan it and see, as mentioned it could be many things!!

I had the same 2 lights on in my E46 330D daily, turned out to be a code for an electrical fault with the yaw sensor

fired a replacement yaw sensor in and been fine since (yaw sensor doesn't require a reset/calibration or anything)

Just had the same same thing on mine. Turned out to be the pressure sensor on the brake master cylinder.

Seems like these sensors go wrong more often than the things they are sensing!

Just to add to my last post. Started the car up a day or so later and no warning lights on. So could have just been my enthusiastic drive down to one of those driving experience days. I should add that I was just watching it all unfold at the BBC track.

So anyway surprise surprise vehicle electrics are temperamental. A sign of things to come on new cars :rolleye:

Snap . Have the same 4 lights on at the moment just finished my subframe reinforcements and rear axle rebuild when all was put back together i had those 4 lights stay on guessing I need to plug in to a computer also .

Just wanted to say that the DSC fault which I encountered was fixed by replacing the DSC pressure sensor on the DSC unit and was sorted out by Monkey at Chandlers BMW in Brighton.

Have had the similar issues, the same two lights come up after about 20-30mins spirited driving but ONLY after Track Mode is selected... There's a 'bing' and then Lights come on and won't go away until the car is switched off for a few hours. Lights are usually gone on restart and then they come back on as per above, but only if track mode is engaged.... Thoughts on what sensor it might be of those suggested? Feels like the steering is heavier (actually almost better) when lights have come on...

Not sure about the causation with the track mode, but it sure sounds like a faulty wheel sensor. I would get your codes read, so you know what exactly is the fault and if its indeed one of the the wheel sensors, which one to replace.

Have you tried driving without the track mode and see if the problem comes back?

Yes, strange huh, lights dont seem to come on if track mode is not engaged...will get bmw to read the codes and go from there...

My bid on it also.
I get the same issue and same warning in the dashboard. I ordered and replaced (myself) both ABS pressure sensors and the problem get solved.

Thanks Olive, ill give that a shot, do you happen to know the part numbers?

Should be 34 52 1 164 458. The DSC/ABS system uses two of this sensor. One is around 80£ excl. VAT. So you may want to get your codes read, before you end up changing them for nothing.
