"Parking Brake Fault" got on Goodwill?

[Igge]

Hi!

Regarding X5 3.0si produced may 2008.

As everybody else here I got the "Parking Brake Fault" message. It works after restart and 4-5 days after it shows again... I went to BMW service center and they could read Voltage Drop from the code. Probably the battery they said. Changed the battery and went home.. The day after I got the same massage in Idrive.

As I can see here - mostly of the cases has been the parking brake actuator. BMW told me that it could be something with the cables.

Now I wonder, has anybody got this reparied on goodwill from BMW? My warranty is gone.

As I can se there is 3 options. Actuator, Software or some Cable.. Actuator change cost about 2000§ and I think it is very bad from BMWs side to not take this on goodwill when it seems to be a big issue on X5..
