As title says really ! Anyone had this and what is the likely cost to rectify ? Car appears to be driving spot on just the amber lights are on the dashboard.

Easy to do diy, genunie dsensor bout £80 wouldn't bother with cheap copy on this imo as I had one and it never worked properly and ended up buying genuine n e way and doing it twice

Genuine sensor from bmw cost me £50 and took two mins to replace with just an allen key. No need to even take the wheel off just turn the wheel fully and reach under (i have pics on here somewhere) unless you are unlucky and it has broken up unside then it's a little more fiddly.

As said above DON'T bother with the ebay ones as they are not compatible as i found out :roll:
Good luck.
