I pulled into the pits, shut down, and restarted and the message cleared. What caused this?

I was reading your post and I wanted to share my experience.. On three separate occasions my "drivetrain malfunction" light came on and got me really nervous because I had just installed the MP LSD, however, every single time, my vehicle was really low on gas and I was driving in spirited manner, so I know for a fact that malfunction indicator was related to a low fluid problem and not an actual defect in the drivetrain. After I restated the car and topped of the fluid, the light would never come back on. This has been over a year and my vehicle performs immaculate; so IMHO this is just your BMW's computer way of saying full some gas before pushing it or maybe it's just a brief gas starvation issue from really high performance driving. |
Makes sense.
