Thank you for your help...for now the problem seems to have been resolved by moving the steering wheel right and left.

Initially that worked for me but eventually I needed a permanent fix.
Good luck.

Earlier in the thread I summarized my experience. If you would like, tomorrow I can dig up the receipt, give you the part number and description of what was done. Please let me know.
Thanks.

+1 ... Your dealer will likely find that sensor in the steering column will be out of spec. Happened on my '07 530xi when it was about 2 yrs old. Even though the warnings will go away for now they will come back and stay on. Take a phone pic next time and show your dealer's service adviser. When under warranty I don't suggest you try to DIY!

Wait till you start having problems with your fuel pump. Got to love our N54's.

The invoice on mine says 27-10-7-546-671 Set Position Motor. The narrative says "Replaced Transfer Case Actuator." The fault was #52D4. I don't have any pricing since it was under warranty and everything is zero. As one of the other guys said, if your car is under warranty let the dealer fix it.
