BMW 330D E92 Electric Power Steering Fault
I'm wondering if anyone can help, I have a 2006 330D E92, and I have an intermittent steering fault.
It happens rarely, but sometimes if I drive the car for an hour or two, if I then switch off the car and turn it on again a few minutes later I get power steering fault light on the dash and the power steering stops working. If I turn the vehicle off and on again repeatedly it will still come up with the error, but I leave the car for an hour or 2 it starts working again. It's like it's doing some sort of diagnostic check when the ignition goes on, because when it's going to fail the steering twitches, when it's going to work the steering doesn't twitch. I've had diagnostics software plugged into the vehicle but I don't get any fault codes. Any help would be much appreciated. |

Around about this time (early to mid 2000s) there was a well known fault such as you describe. My Z4 had the complete steering column replaced under warranty after it locked solid after starting it up one day - scary. It's an expensive repair circa plus £1000. Try Google for the fault.
