Hello Everyone,

Sometimes when I shut my 2007 530XI off, I see a big yellow exclamation mark where the date/time is. It's on for about 1 second and then disappears. Any idea what it is?

Thanks.

 

Man that's weird that it does it when you turn it off. How cold has it been outside?

 

I know this: The car is asking "Oh WHYYY you don't want to drive any longer?! "

Just kidding . Sorry I have no idea.

 

...check control message/warning. Check the iDrive for any warning.

 

I agree with DrLev,
Press and hold the check button on your turn signal lever until you get a message. If the message reads "check ok", then go to your i-drive menu. I believe from the main menu of the i-drive you simply push down on the i-drive to select "i". Check under scheduled maintenance section. I have no warnings or errors but occassionally get the "! in the triangle". Scheduled maintenance section tells me that I am due for brake fluid change. I believe the "! in the triangle" is simply an alert that there is information pertinent to your vehicle available. Hope this helps. Let us know what you find.

 

I think a mouse in our garage pooped in my engine bay or something. My AC stinks. Not to mention, when I turn the temp all the way to hot and on full blast, I still get cold air. No warning signs for that, I suppose.

 

This warning should have popped up in the iDrive:

 

DONT LEAVE ME OWNER!!!

 

There's no triangle, it's just an exclamation mark. When I check Idrive there is nothing there and the Check button on the steering wheel comes up with "Check OK".

 

It's been around 30-40
