Replaced sensor in passenger seat that was causing airbag system fault
Light came on on the dashboard while driving indicating that there was a problem with the airbag. Took the car to BMW and they determined it was a faulty sensor for the knee airbag. Sensor was replaced the following day free of charge.
When engine restarted after stop/start system shut it down (like at red light, etc.), transmission would shift into Park and transmission error message would be displayed. Internet research suggested that this could be cause by low voltage from battery. My inspection revealed battery was factory original, 7 yrs. old. Dealer checked battery condition; battery replaced and car reprogramed to charge new battery. Problem has not recurred.
