2008 Z4 - WARNING LIGHTS

[Mole]

Just bought a 2008 Z4 2.0. Drives like a dream. However, a few faults which I'll unleash the local BMW dealer to diagnose but not necessarily fix. Soft hood doesn't work. I'm nervous to manually lower it unless I cause more problems! But more worrying, I've got several dash yellow warning lights. All come on only after ten minutes of driving: 1) ABS 2) Parking Brake 3) Tyre pressure (Doesn't currently have run flats fitted.
Anyone out there experienced the same trio?! I'd be grateful for any thoughts please. Thanks. As I said, the car drives like a dream. No issues with steering, braking. Only 37K miles on the clock.

You need to plug in a code reader and see what it throws up. The 2.0 is known for engine warning lights - I had intermittent lights thrown up on my previous 2.0 Z4 and never got to the bottom of them.
Yours could be a steering sensor that needs resetting/replacing, but as said a code reader is the way to go - your BMW dealer can diagnose or any decent BMW specialist or Indy

As above, proper diagnosis is required for the warning lights. The roof is an easy fix, whereabouts are you located?

Thanks to both replies. I’m based in South Cumbria. Booked it into the local BMW dealer for a full serivice and diagnostic check. No doubt they’ll produce a list!? But better to know than keep guessing. Thanks again.
