Re: 4x4 and dsc sytstem failure

garage phoned and said problem is a communication issues between some module or something ??

any one heard of this before or anything similar ?

the car has full bmw history at the same dealer in Salisbury would a call to them be worth fining out anything see if the last owner got shot of the car ...
