Hi Chris

I've read the same as you but the most common solution appears to be repairing the DSC Hydro Unit (the mechanical pump rather than the electrical module). There is a common issue in that a pressure detector fails which causes the warning lights. I have had this problem since January and the warning lights occasionally disappear. When the lights are on the ABS is definitely inoperative. When the lights are off - the ABS works. I have ordered an INPA cable to check the codes.

If it does prove to be the Hydro Unit then the repair kit for my part number is £800. Other almost identical part on 3 and 1 series are around£140.

If it proves to be the Hydo unit I plan to have it repaired by Bbareman or ECU Testing or suchlike.

I would just like to know 100% whether the hydro dsc unit is the cause.
