Did the light come on shortly after refuelling and if so did you put crappy petrol in it?

Andrew could well be right. I had an EML come on in my 728i after filling it with crappy fuel from France. Could just be you got a bad batch from a supermarket or something? Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining! |

update well put £70 of super unleaded in and guess what after 15 miles on comes the light again thinking one or more of the o2 sensors must be on the way out . 1990 3.5 v8 defender 2000 4.6 v8 30th anniversary prins lpg 2004 4.4 v8 vogue prins lpg 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue faultmate extreme rsw allcoms Autel 906BT Gap iiD tool |

further update on this fault i have recently fitted 2010 rear led lights and the fault has been apparent since they were fitted so i refitted the standard lights and the fault has gone so it must be something that the car doesnt like about these led lights the led lights were fitted with the powerfull uk modification to fix the fog light problem which it did- but still had the check fog light message on dash the fast flash indicator fault was cured by wireing in a side repeater in the loom . now do i buy 1 of these dedicated modules sold on fleabay for £120 and hope it fixes all faults or just put my origanal lights back in 1990 3.5 v8 defender 2000 4.6 v8 30th anniversary prins lpg 2004 4.4 v8 vogue prins lpg 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue faultmate extreme rsw allcoms Autel 906BT Gap iiD tool |

How old is your battery? Have you had it tested recently? Are you sure that the lights are the cause of your problem and not a failing battery throwing erroneous fault codes?
