Obviously your car's not happy at you selling it off!

Have you checked the cables that plugs into the rear light cluster? They are known to overheat and melt. Check the part that goes INTO the light...



It's only on the right side, right?



P.S. Have you got any more pics of your car? It looks pretty ***ing amazing!

lol. check fuse first, if that's not it check bulbs, if that's not it check harness. If that's not it check wiring.
I was laughing at jokster above. Car looks nice btw. great rear end and aggressive stance

it may be the grounding problem that many have encountered (me). check inside the connector for burnt/melted. btw, did you get an error message on your idrive? do a search on this as there is quite a bit written on the subject, here and other sites some with pics.
