Hi All

2019 F90 M5 (non Comp)

All was well until last week when I had the wheels refurbed and the car was probably on axle stands for a couple of days.
Since collecting the car, the M1/M2 mode buttons on the steering wheel don't work - M1 flashes on the screen a couple of times but the driving mode doesn't change out of the usual default efficiency mode.

I have tried resetting the M1/M2 through the M menu in IDrive, but this doesnt fix the problem.

All the M modes for power, suspension and steering are working when selected independently, it is just that the steering wheel buttons arent working.

Is there a fault code that may have been thrown up by the wheels being off the car, which needs a dealer to reset?
Or something else?

Thanks in advance

Press the Volume button in for 30 seconds till it resets the system it should come back on.
