Hi guys,

Hopfully someone can help!

I've just bought an e92 325D. I got about 70 miles before a driving stability warning came up. Along with a DBC warning, an FTM warning.. and a "start assistance warning".

I decided to carry on driving and then I got a warning for my airbags and seat restraints.

The guy I bought it from said the car had been sitting for a few weeks. It drives spot on and the ABS works.

Has anyone had this happen to them in the past?..

Thanks.

Probably a low battery, they tend to throw up error codes.

I had this about 2 months ago. Done by BMW under (paid monthly) warranty. It was wheel speed sensor(s). They replaced 2 IIRC. Came to about £500 but I only paid the £100 excess.
