Triangle with snowflake orange color

jalcantar2010 · 11-01-2011, 02:42 PM

I was on my way to Vegas, we took off at 4 am n like an hour into the drive I got a triangle with a snowflake in the middle .. I really dint think it was a bid deal bc it went away afterwards but is on my mind now.. N want to know what it means ? If it\'s bad or not ?

Your cars' balls have shrunk.

It just means the temperature is below freezing.

TheStig · 11-01-2011, 02:45 PM

BMW is telling you its freaking cold outside and be careful.

gary88 · 11-01-2011, 02:45 PM

That comes on at 37 degrees to warn you that it's cold outside and to drive accordingly.

You need to add ice to your engine as soon as possible, to keep it from overheating

SilverII · 11-01-2011, 02:55 PM

It's a Blizzard Warning. AWD cars dont receive this alert.

It seems like every year around this time of year these threads pop up about 3-5 times and then they dissipate.

Then again around early November every year...reminding everyone winter is here....around some places in the world....

OP must be new here...not to worry too much and RTFM, its a warning about possible ice on the road or bridge....

It's telling you that Mr. Freeze is in town as Arnold Shwarzenegger and he's freezing everything. But don't worry, George Clooney is on his way to save the day dressed as Batman.

Exwoodchuck · 11-01-2011, 03:49 PM

If only there was a helpful book that BMW's came with ... that would explain things like this...

It's easier to make a new thread and text and drive, than it is to read the manual and drive.
