Hi
Today whilst driving the airbag and seatbelt light appeared on the dashboard with an error message on the Idrive telling me there was a problem with the system and that I should take it to a BMW dealer. At the time I did have a passenger in the car.
The car recently went into BMW service for a parking sensor fault via the non BMW dealer I brought it off and it had "some" recall work done (I do not know what this work entailed).
Has anyone else experienced a similar problem ? is there a common problem ? is there anyway to reset the system without going to BMW ?
Many Thanks in advance

Year is 2005, so would be covered in this recall I presume, I will find out what recall work BMW did last week and see if there is a coincidence that this has just happened.
Many Thanks

Hi just read it again and it seems only the 2006 6 series is covered, will give BMW a call to check this anyway.

Car is an E64 not an E60 sorry for any confusion.
Thanks
