Drivetrain warning?

[sparr0w]

Has anyone encountered this problem on their F10? This popped up on my idrive this morning and the car rattles more than usual. It also seemed underpowered.

Oh I didn't mention that I did checked the forum and also googled before posting the message? Just trying my luck for more advice. I am taking the vehicle to the workshop for diagnosis anyways.

All of the ws here can diagnose it.
Its a general Warning - its scope is rather wide so nobody is able to know what's wrong without a diagnose.

Sensor issue

It's most probably an issue with the ignition coil

Bro Sparrow

What did your WS find out? You didn't mention what year your F10 is and what mileage? Hope it has been sorted out!

Sounds like a problem I had with my Opel before (although there was no iDrive warning) and it turned out to be an injector problem.

Re: Drivetrain warning?

Upon investigation, it was indeed one of the ignition coil that was failing. Got it replaced along with the plugs. Still monitoring but overall drive has improved significantly. Mileage was around 46k.

Errro message quite generic. Glad you managed to pinpoint problem.

Same experience before; car is 39months old @ 62k mileage. Replaced all ignition coil ($78ea) and plugs ($25ea).

I also had this drivetrain error message this afternoon.

Sending in to Munich for a check tomorrow. Hopefully it's nothing major.
