Car Forum / BMW Cars / May 2006Service indicator lights
Anyone ever known these to be faulty ? I bought my car freshly serviced November last year - 5 greenboxes (and apprx 66000 miles). Probably 2 months later, one went out. Now I expected the rate to be similar - one every 2-3 months (I have done only about 4000 miles in the car since then and many journeys are relatively short). But it still shows 4. What're the chances of a fault within the fault management system :)  Signaturejeremy ['01 BMW 530iA SE Touring] > Anyone ever known these to be faulty ? > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > similar - one every 2-3 months (I have done only about 4000 miles in the > car since then and many journeys are relatively short).

Any true anorak logged the mileage each goes out at? ;-) Signature*I yell because I care Dave Plowman dave@davenoise.co.uk London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound.
