Did you mod the car in any way (wheels, new tires) around the time it started?The first warning is a brake system malfunction. It's telling you with the second warning with skid marks that your DSC in malfunctioning and the red car on a rack is telling you service is needed.

If you didn't mod it or run over a massive curb or something else to sincerely fk your ride up then it is almost certainly just a computer glitch and BMW can fix it with a "flash" or whatever they call it at the stealership.

No haven't changed anything. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with my jb4. I just want the stealership to be the last resort... I was hoping someone else had a similar problem and knows Wat to do...

When I had the same issue, it ended up being a wheel bearing which the dealer replaced under CPO.

well i had that light on, thats what my car is in for service for now, they are replacing a whole bunch of stuff for me under CPO. for dsc if it is not a hardware problem, clear them, and reset the ecu by either command/bt tool or disconnect battery. car they should go away..as far as car on lift, that could be well..because racecar.. cant really tell you much without seeing a data log of codes. i think you need to take the car to the dealer for sure..

That code could also be the BSC (not DSC, BSC) sensor or steering angle sensor throwing a glitch. I had one go bad on my 2011 328 (which I suspect was the dealership breaking it somehow when they failed to calibrate after Dinan Stage 1 suspension). Steering angle sensor is tied into DTC/DSC and ABS and regulates both given the amount of lock you have on and available grip under driving conditions. After doing some reading I've found it's a common fail point on the E9X series of cars, but the time/point of failure is random.

Thanks for the input fellas. Someone was tellin me how the steering angel sensor works with the dtc. And since my wheel was... For lack of a better term "cocked to the left"... I guess it was messing with the sensor. So after gettn an alignment and gettn the wheel straightened I turned the steering wheel all the way to one side it must've reset itself cuz the lights went away...
