My Ride: On order for November Delivery - 550 !!!! - Currently own 1999 E39 540, sport pkg, premium sound pkg, black on black. Previous owner of 2000 M Coupe, 1996 328is, 1984 633csi, 1982 528e, and wifed owned 1999 528 touring and 2002 525 touring. Looking at buying 545 or 550 in fall of 2005.
I have had my car for almost 2 weeks now, and I get this error message on start up, EVERY single time I start up the car. Dealer says it's a software issue. Haven't had the time to bring in the car yet, but will soon. Hope this doesn't linger on.

My Ride: '04 545iS 6 spd, bought new via eBay, 11/05; Blk/Gry, Cold, L7, PDC, BMW Rear seatcover for pets.
First "Bumwa" was a new 1971 2002. High performance 5s since 1987. Beamer motorcycles too, currently on an 07 BMW K1200 GT; also a Moto Guzzi 1000 SP III.
Ah, so this is what that "open window" warning icon is about. I thought it was because I had turned off the window locks. I'm getting it out of the blue, and the other 3 windows have never been down. I have noticed that the driver window does shut with impressive authority...as in: I'd hate to have a finger there when it finishes its travel. Maybe I should relower and raise passenger window, as I did let that down to chat with someone, and the warning appeared after that.
I've beginning to think that this car is too damned smart.

My passenger window was doing it, the dealer replaced the motor and upgraded to CIP 18 and it hasn't done it since. It's been about 3 months. Seems crazy they need to replace the motor to fix this, dealer said the anti-trap is built into the motor.
