Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    The hand break light and the Dsc light keep coming up on mu 320d 2005 Bmw.
    the lights are yellow and were coming up now and again once you turned the engine off they disappeared. They are on Continually now. Could this be the pressure sensor on the break cylinder. If so can anybody please help me with a drawing and part number. Can this be dangerous for driving.The car has to get a NCT will they pick it up.
    Cheers

    Maybe the pads need changing, best to take off a wheel and have
    a good check. How does the car feel when braking.

    Thanks for your reply.
    The pads are fine.
    here is a link to it http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=AS71&mospid=47635&btnr=34_1092&hg=34&fg=25&hl=7
    it is number 2.
    Could it be this that is causing the DSC AND BREAKLIGNT TO TURN ON .

    Just wondering if there's any fluid leaking. Also maybe check any
    sensor connections. Hopefully its something simple.

    Sorry about all the questions. The car is starting to cost me big time.
    Cheers

    Least you know what the fault is now. Maybe try and take it off and
    clean it and retry. Also ottoparts might be
    worth a go for the part heard there a good bit cheaper than BMW.

    Saw a similar problem on here recently I think. turned out to be dirty sensors. Whip the wheels off and get cleaning.
