SOS malfunction light

JeffM2PRDallas · 10-18-2017, 09:23 AM

My 2016 F87 is almost 2 year but since day one I keep getting the SOS malfunction light (emergency calling). Unfortunately I spend more time on a loaner than in my car.
Have any of you had this issue?

It's probably your comm box, pretty common failure on earlier cars. Check this thread:

I had that issue in my old '10 135i and it was the comm box under the trunk liner. It took several trips to the dealer before BMW NA agreed to swap the box for a new one. That solved the issue for good.
