Brakepad warning on the left,or could be and sensor as both lights are on.

It can be reset,with the right equipment,and may be an intermittent fault on a sensor.

Shouldn't affect driving,as my wife had this on he 125i could recently and ran about in it for nearly 2 weeks before getting a new sensor,lol

It's under warranty so will call warranty on Monday , cheers Craig. The manual says it could be brake fluid but there is plenty fluid.

If it's still under warranty, phone BMW Assist!
They have kit onboard the call out vehicle.

If it's an bmw auc warranty then it should have assist as part of the cover? If it's got breakdown cover then those warning lights means it's broken down as you are not sure what they mean.
Worth looking at the policy .

I've had a look and it says check asap.
The round symbol with exclamation mark is dynamic brake control
The triangle with exclamation mark is stability control

Cheers Ronk

My manual says Dynamic Stability Control, Dynamic Traction Control and Dynamic Brake Control are defective. There is no light coming on when you press the DSC button.
