help with Unknown Fault light

Pearler · 12-09-2015, 04:17 AM

I have been looking up this lamp that appeared then disapeared, but can't find out what it means. Anyone help please, not sure I want to drive until I know

So I found out after much searching.

'engine speed to low, select a lower gear if the driving situation allows you to do so'

That's a bit embarassing. Mocked by my own car

I should confess the whole story. I called my local BMW indie, they are very good. I described the symbol, and they expressed it 'did not ring a bell', and couldn't remember seeing it before. They advised me to come in so they could check the fault memory.
I had to call them back and explain what it was, he said, 'my dad has probably seen that a few times'.

In the manual it lists "section 2.1 stop driving like a fucking girl" lol

What did you do to make it come on?

I've stalled mine a few times by braking for junctions and not declutching early enough. Never seen that symbol before though!
