I would get the errors read and deleted with INPA. Then drive a bit, if they return, read again and check whats wrong. Most likely the wheel speed sensor is the culprit.

What is the score with these sensors? Are they just off the shelf items from BMW ie pick a new one up and replace it? I take it once replaced it the errors will need deleting to get rid of the lights.
I got the DSC and yellow brakes (- ?) icon come up on mine today. Presumably they are just caused by dirty contacts rather than failure. Are they are DiY fix for tinkerers or just for 'experts'? Words from the wise appreciated. Pip Ps not my car as I have only reached ~40,000

As it turned out the issue with mine was not the speed sensor but a wheel alignment sensor. Elms reset it and all is good again.

Could be a number of reasons, something you can do yourself is disconnect and reconnect the pressure sensors on the brake master cylinder. There are 2 of them, a little bit fiddly. Other than that you'll need to get the faults read I'm afraid.

I had the same 2 lights on in my E46 330D daily, turned out to be a code for an electrical fault with the yaw sensor fired a replacement yaw sensor in and been fine since (yaw sensor doesn't require a reset/calibration or anything) |

Just had the same same thing on mine. Turned out to be the pressure sensor on the brake master cylinder.

Just to add to my last post. Started the car up a day or so later and no warning lights on. So could have just been my enthusiastic drive down to one of those driving experience days. I should add that I was just watching it all unfold at the BBC track.
So anyway surprise surprise vehicle electrics are temperamental. A sign of things to come on new cars  Pip |
