Just collected my 2004 Z4 2.5i bimmer and on the way home (after about 30 miles driving) the airbag light suddenly appeared and is now permanent. I know there are dozens of similar entries but would be very grateful for some clarification to two questions I have.
1) The various threads mention seat sensors as the main culprit, are there sensors in both seats, doesn't seem normal to have them in drivers side since airbags wouldn't be need if no driver present.
2) Can the passenger side airbags be manually disabled on all models ? The Driver manual refers to a key method to do this plus a disable notification light, but I don't seem to have either, am I missing something here or is my car not so equipped.
I have just ordered the C310+ scan tool from Amazon which seems to be the favourite.
