Any ideas why the 4x4 light would come on when driving in a straight line on the motorway...

And

Which button is supposed to turn it off ?

Regards

I'm guessing a fault in the 4x4 system most likely the transfer box motor which was common on the e53 but could be to do with an abs sensor too ,time to get some codes checked :(
