Maintenance light with yellow exclamation mark
Hey guys,
I'm getting this light randomly. I checked the brake fluid and the auto stop rolling feature and they're both good. Also I'm getting the rear pad replacement light. Are they both indicating the same problem with the rear pads or are they 2 separate problems? This is my second bmw (first was a e30) so I'm still fairly new to this. Thanks |

Please read the codes for us. Anything else will be guessing.

Depends on the reader. If you get any codes that is good. But your reader may no be able to read bmw codes. In that case use a bavarian technic cable or Inpa.

I know the rear brakes notification is true as I just checked the pads and they are low. |

Your car needs the rear brakes to be replaced. They have reached the service limit.
The yellow car-on-lift icon means service is required. The brake light being constantly illuminated and the CBS service menu showing zero (0) miles left on the rear brakes all tells you the rear pads are spent and need replacement. No IPNA cable or code reading was necessary to figure this out. A read of the owners manual would have told you this.
