Have to have at least a generic hand held computer for most codes but for certain BMW body codes such as yours you have to go to the dealer/independent or buy a more expensive type of code reader.

http://forums.5serie...or-not-to-code/ a link to getting the tool is in here and inside that link is a how to, maybe too much info to absorb for the average joe


In your case because it is a early build it will most like be covered under the BMW recall. Just call them up or swing by.

 

I have had this for the longest time on my 2008 535i

Recognizes passenger in seat by audible sound but still gives this error. Where can I unplug
The mat at and plug back to reset?
