Was there any type of guarantee or was it sold As Is?

I said it might be a wheel sensor but I also advise you to get the X scan so that you will know why the lights are coming on. Wheel sensor are a common cause for the DSC, ABS and brake lights to come on, but so is a bad transfer case or a bad ABS module.

Since you don't have any type of diagnostic software I would recommend BMW Scanner 1.4. It is easy to install compare with other software for the BMW. You will need a laptop running XP (hopefully you are not like another member whose is an analog guy living in a digital world).

If you are not a DIYer then a used X without a warranty is not the right SUV for you (why do you think the PO tape the lights? Couldn't afford to get it fix correctly).
