Dashboard Dials stay RED in all Driving Modes

Just noticed something strange yesterday with my F25 X3 (2014)....

Normally the following should happen:

Comfort Mode - the dials are WHITE
Eco-Pro Mode - the dials are Blue
Sport Mode - the dials are RED

For the past few days, the dials are staying RED no matter what mode I select. Anyone else had this happen?

I usually flip between eco and comfort, but I'm 100% certain the colour usually changes, but now, no matter what I do, the dials/speed LEDs etc stay red. In ECO Mode, the Savings dial is BLUE.

Anyone else had this happen? Should I book it in for an inspection?
:o

Have you tried sport + and then back down to sport > comfort?
Another thing to look at is what mode does it start in the morning?  It should be comfort. If it isn't then a service appt will be needed

Don't have Sport + on mine  ;)

On a morning it starts off in Comfort.
Yesterday while in comfort, the display eventually turned from red to white without any intervention.
But today, it remains in RED.

Will see what happens tomorrow, otherwise i'll get it back in. Whilst in Red, the revs seem to be affected as well, but no warning lights at all on the dash.
