Have en e90 loaner for the week.
I noticed driving it home that there is what I assume is a warning light on- triangle w/exclamation mark in the middle of it (see pic).

Anything I need to be concerned with? Like I said it's just a loaner, but I have it for @ least a week...

Could be one of very many things from a harmless low windshield washer fluid or low fuel level warning to a major mechanical issue. Use the stalk to check the condition. Scroll to the "Check" option them hit the button. You can scroll through a list of issues if there is more than one.

Rotate the dial on the turn signal stalk until is says check systems or something like that (I am going from memory) then press the button on then end of the stalk and it will tell you what is the matter. Probably something like low washer fluid.

Even though it's not mine I'd hate to have been driving & have the engine implode & be resonponsible for it. :)

I've wondered about that! :D:D

You've racked up an unbelievable number of posts in under a year, and over the past few months have usually been the first one to respond to a question!

One of the benefits of being in front of a computer all workday long. Downside: too many to count.
