So i have been having a problem with my Electronic Dampening Control (ECD) when I put the car in M mode. It throws a code, and says it is malfuntioning. Anyone know what it is? the car is a 2007 and only has 7K miles on it. If i shut the car down and restart it, the code will reset itself. I have taken it to the dealer twice now, and the can't find any problems. Any ideas? My service adviser wonders if its because the car sits so much and the battery is getting low. Just seems wierd that it does it when I drive in M mode and not the standard mode.........Anyone got any ideas?

how long does your car sit for? , could i borrow it on those days? just kidding bro if your car sits around for more then a couple of days your "bmw battery dies" because according to them the car wasnt made to be sitting around so maybe switch out the battery or get a trickle charger good luck!
