Chosen Solution

While i was driving I noticed my transmission wasn’t shifting and Transmission Failsafe appeared on the dash screen so i pulled over to see if i could do anything and it locked in to Park so i had it towed home after reading from the different on line articles i figured the transmission was low on fluid so i decided to change the filter and fluid assuming the dash light would go out what am i needing to do to get the Failsafe light out.

The vehicle may be stuck in some sort of limp mode or “safety” mode. BMW was the first to implement this feature in case there’s a mechanical issue with the car in which it will limit the power and speed, forcing consumers to take it to the dealership immediately. You may need a special tool or scanner to remove the fault code. I would call a local european specialist on this one. This generation of 7 series is not exactly the best when it comes to repair.
