Hi all,
after 4 years of trouble free motoring, my Z3 has a problem...
A few weeks ago it had a flat battery, which resulted in the brake wear light and the DSC light coming on. I changed the battery and the lights went out. Now after a 30 mile drive, both lights are on again. Going to get pads checked, but I am at a loss as to why the DSC light is on?
Cheers

brake pad light and DSC light
Hi
I`m not an expert so please don`t rely on this being correct!
However, I have the exact same problem, sadly it is not good news!
The lights I have on are the yellow light in the middle (DSC Light) and the yellow light with an exclamation mark with a round circle round it and inbetween brackets. Anyhow, this is not to indicate your brake pads are low or your brake fluid, it simply means your DSC is switched off due to some form of fault. Why do i know this? Well my car is currently in with a dealership and is now back in for the third time! A pressure sensor was changed first, not cheap at £195 for the part alone! Then the electrical box for the dsc had to be changed, again not cheap at £995 for the aprt alone (it had to be shipped in from germany!). Anyway, its back in again for some "tweaking!", as the lights came back on again!
You can probably get it all done cheaper at an indy but thats down to personal preference I guess?
Anyhow, hope that helps?
