Thank you!

The first time that happened to my '07 E91, the alternator and IBS unit were replaced. When the problem resurfaced 6 months later, it turned out to be a bad wire shorting to ground.
As I understand it, there is a service bulletin on the shorting problem so you might want to take it to a dealer.
