hi mate, I had the same problem one month ago. I called 0400 bmw number and the guy told me how to release it manually..actually it is on the manual. after that he told me to go to the nearest bmw service center, I waited for two hours, the service guy told me there is a electronic part was not working, they need to order it oversea which takes 1 week working time, he also said he will call me when the electronic stuff is arrive. but I never got a call after that......

I just don't believe the bmw service center... do they have enough experience or knowledge to do their jobs?????

funny thing is, after they check my car, the yellow malfunction light was off. and the brake works just fine..what the problem with it? software? hardware? I have no idea........
