Hi Guys

Anybody have any idea about my car?

I have a 735 sportauto the 99 model shape.

last week after about a mile the esc, abs and brake lining amber lights came on, (the brakes work, but the abs doesn't and the traction control doesn't)

I think an abs sensor has gone so that's cool....

BUT

sometimes the interior lights come on all by themselves, or the headlamps do, and the indicators stop working (yes I know it's a BMW, but I mean they really stop working!)

Anybody had this?

Thanks

well

Came back last night and was welcomed by my car headlamps on full beam plus foglights, round the back, one reverse light and one tail lamp on, very very eerie, it lit up the whole street.

Unlocked the car, opened the boot, and everything went off.

Locked the car again and five minutes later, the lighthouse awoke for 5 seconds and went dead again!

It is currently sitting outside with the battery disconnected.

The boot wasn't damp, but the wiring was very very cold, so will warm up everything over the next few days.

Now I know why my dad says don't buy modern cars!

It's still so cool looking though!
