Airbag!!
Had an odd one this morning! Blue skies, perfect weather for a quick CSL blast. While going over an annoying but not drastic sunken drain cover the fucking passenger side curtain airbag deploys! Hazards come on engine cuts out and I drift into an handy lay by.
While I'm trying to work out if I've been shot or something I look around the car. Nothing amiss apart from the bloody airbag across the passenger window! The car started, so I slowly drove the 5 miles back to my workshop and phoned Anthony/Julian @Simpson's to see if it can be sorted over next week! I'm thinking BMW need to sort this one out. Anyone heard of this before!

Exactly the same happened to steve gill, BMW told him to f off and blamed it on aftermarket suspension.
If no luck with BMW I am pretty sure I still have the curtain bags from mine, more than welcome to one for nothing.
