What are you using to read the code? A generic OBD II reader will NOT read the code. You need to get a BMW specific software that can read the modules for the DSC, ABS, and EGS. A generic OBD II code reader only reads emission related code store in the DME.

RB,
I am not getting trans failsafe, only the DSC 4X4. I have been searching the forums and found this article by JunkyC: http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...al-solved.html. It looks like I may need to replace the sensor. upallnight, I was using the regular OBD II CODE Reader and I do have the BMW software. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Hi I had this issue a while back, it was the steering angle sensor was out of its limits.
My steering wheel was a bit on the squiff but the car still drove in a straight line and didn't pull when braking. Had a full geometry check and adjusted , steering wheel sensor reset , steering wheel set straight and all good. Never had issue since and that was a couple of years ago.

Avonside,
Thanks for your comment. I am waiting on the light to come back on and read the code. I was going to buy and replace a sensor, but after reading a couple of possible fixes, I decided to wait and see what code it has. If it is the steering angle sensor, do I need to take it to the dealer to conduct a full geometry check or can I do it myself?
