I just experienced this problem this morning. It came on about 15 minutes into an hour drive to work. It went on and off for the entire ride. The car still ran at speed limit, but I did notice the engine was running a little rough. I left work, restarted the car and the warning was off and stayed off for the hour it took me to get back home. I guess I should take it to the dealer so they can see if it registered any codes. The car only has 1700 miles on it.
Let me know how you make out...

Dropped it off at the shop today and they replaced the #1 cylinder fuel injector. The car drove fine on the way home. I had forgotten that I also got an antilock braking system error a month or so back. They picked up a code for that also and recalibrated the steering angle sensor, whatever that is.

sounds just like the fault our 07 525 had - BMW just replaced all the injectors... sad at 14k miles but yours really is very-early-failure!

Hi again
Good news, it's fixed! The engineer said he had to replace a hose connecting the turbo. My car has a new lease of life! Guess it has been under performing for a while now but i've just got used to it. It's still a 520d but god it feels much quicker than it did before!
All done under warranty luckily for me
Thanks
Ben
