Hi,
And thanks again for putting some thought into this...
Well after sitting for a few days, it just started again
(getting ready for the tow in the morning).
The transmission light was out, but the check engine light stayed on.
So I restarted and the transmission light came on again, with the check engine.
Next I tried my PEAKE R5/FCX-II tool again, and it ran this time pulling three codes:
94 - EWS Input
d8 - Doesn't show on my specified table (07)
EC - CAN Timeout, EGS
The code I mentioned earlier is just the PEAKE tool stating that the diagnostics bus is "hung" and it can't access the system, so its not actually a BMW code.
The ony other thing we had here that may have effected my vehicle is insane torrential monsoon-like thunder storms that soaked everything. We have been having them on and off for weeks and the car has been running fine, but I wondered if it just got too damp or wet and something shorted out?
I guess my dilemma now is do I drive to the 2.5 miles to my garage or have it towed anyway???
I don't want to damage the engine.
