This afternoon, my car started acting weird. First, got a "SOS Malfunction" message, blue tooth won't work, radio not working. Pushed the SOS button, spoke to BMW and my location is way off based on GPS. Anyone experience this before? Probably have to take it to dealer.

You need a new TCU,good luck as apart from your local dealer if you bought one second hand off ebay you's have to get it programmed by somebody who would be able to write your vin to it as it will have the previous car's detail's attached to it,I know as I had done the same thing when my bluetooth stopped working.
