Hi just had my 2015 640d F06 serviced at the local BMW. Was informed that it has few recalls, driver airbag and EGR coolant. It was suppose to be a day job then had call later that the car will not be ready as it also has another recall for the manifold. Prior to this my car going was running very quiet and smooth. It then took 3 days as the parts was not available. I picked the car up and noticed straight away that the sound of the car was very loud but assumed it may be due to the new manifold. Next morning whilst on the school run I got the following error on the screen “Drivetrain error - continue the journey at a moderate speed. Full performance not available. Have the problem checked by service”

so obviously I rang the local bmw dealers who carried out the work and was booked in for the next morning. Took the car in and spent 3.5 hours waiting to be informed that it’s nothing to do with the manifold. Been informed to change the exhaust back pressure sensor before turbine and the pipe. Also advised to change over valve for turbine control flap and wastegate valve faulty. Gave me a price for the parts of £286 + and labour £1280 +. Not accepting their fault on this. 
please can any advice me what to do?

      SLIPPING CLUTCH

      Hi Dave, I fitted one of the sensors on the rear but it has made no effect as the light is still there, I will fit the other sensor tomorrow and see how it goes then. You mention the disconnect the battery, is there any pattern to this ? is it both leads or just the negative lead? cheers Paneuro.

      105C thermostat replacement

      Not sure what engine your running but there should be a Temp sensor in the Hose from the Rad to the water pump then there should be a Temp sensor in the housing for the Thermostat Both are shown in realoem for the 3.5 V8 I thought the V8 was the only one with dual use sensor on the Thermostat housing but stand to be corrected Dave

      105C thermostat replacement

      I have checked realoem and it gives me no temperature sensor option , which is strange. Also what I did was to remove the map thermostat and disconnected the resistance heating that is inside the thermostat and replace it with a 88C from an x5. Nothing else has been changed. The strange thing is that it run like that for 3 weeks in August. When I start the car last week the temperature dial was going to max before dropping to normal value. And that happened only when cold. When warm the dial was showing the right temp. I also saw that the map for the thermostat was engaged when the car was running cold which made me think that there may be a connection between the thermostat dial and the map thermostat not being connected.
