I got a 2004 BMW X5 that gets a trans fail safe light that only comes on after the car sits overnight, I can run the car for 5 minutes then shut it off and it goes away until it sits for 8 hours
Ive replaced the battery but it still doing it, like I said
after running the car for 5 minutes I can shut it off
and the alarm goes away and won’t come back on
the rest of the day, until the car sits overnight, I’m
not sure if the car is overcharging when it starts and
it gives me the alarm or something else, I’m not
having issues with my transmission it shifts fine
other then locking me out of 1 and 2 gear when the
alarm comes on. But it will reset after I shut the car
off and start it back up.
