Answer
Nicole, when your car is running use the thumb wheel button on your turn signal stalk to scroll to "Check Control" Press the BC button on the end of the stalk to select the check control. Now you can scroll through your check control messages with your thumb wheel. Once on a message, press and hold the BC button until you get the Code from that check control message and write it down. Do this with each of your check control messages. Report back to me or better yet call the dealer and tell them what car you have and your check control message codes. Have the person ask one of the technicians to look up the codes in the training manual for your car. If you still have warranty on the vehicle (4years or 50,000miles in the U.S.) then just make a service appointment for your vehicle. I usually take several days to respond as I don't answer questions every day so your best bet is to call your local BMW dealer with your check control code. Hope this helps. You might want to purchase another vehicle manual.
