Car in at the dealers today. They have just phoned to say it was a rear brake light bulb... no mention of bulb holder, so I guess they will charge for replacing the bulb, despite the fact I saw them all working.

Hi All,

I got a strange problem with my E92 325. It's just started to report a fault right brake light. However, I've check it and it's fine....not sure what it's complaining about. Any ideas ?

fake warning

Hi mate, its a well known issue and the cause of it is a dodge bulb light holder.
Or it may have come loose due road vibrations etc. it classed as a warranty thing and just take it in to your dealer and they should remedy.

Also if you search the site you'll find the us boys have it a lot too, as did i.

Had a spurious fault reading on my sisters 1-er. Dealer "tightened something up" and so far it's been ok.

It's a known fault in the E92 produced up to 21/1/08 & is due to a poor fit on the rear bulbs & the bulb holders.

Have a look further up this thread, ok.

Any updates from those of you who have suffered with CC-ID 134?

I have just got the error code coming up and will be paying a visit to the dealers

Booked into Stealers today, explained issue, requested PUMA investigation, showed them bulb with pitted contact from sparking. Result = have latest bulb holders already (?? Oct 07 build but 08 model) and they changed 2 bulbs. This is strange as I did a continuity test on all bulbs yesterday and none were blown. Also I was not charged anything!. I will wait and see
