Got home, turned the car off and let it sit for about 5 mins. When I started it back up its like the ECU lost its mind. It said service was overdue from 1/1/2006 and that it needed an oil change. Let it run for a little bit, and shut it down again. Now when I start it everything is fine. I plugged in my scanner and there are no codes. Thoughts on what to do, and before you say "take it to the dealership", my dealership won't acknowledge there is a problem unless there are codes. I know, it sucks, but I have to deal with that. |
If there are no codes and everything appears normal I would just forget about it.
DTM's are a catch-all so many things could have triggered it.
Had a couple of these on my 15' F10 M5 and there were no codes when I scanned; they usually resolved on their own.
I've not had any on my current F90 M5C.
