Steering Lock light on dashboard - 0810
Has any one experienced the yellow steering lock light permanently on the dashboard. This started to happen occasionally about 3 months ago on my 1 series 116i, bought as second owner but previously used as a demonstrator model direct from Williams BMW? It went in to BMW in March and has been 'upgarded' with the latest software which was supposed to fix the fault, but gradually it has become worse. It has been back today and I have been told that they 'did not switch on' all of the software last time and it was their error, so has been rectified!! I feel fobbed off, is this the real reason?, only time will tell.

Williams have a good reputation (as does the one series). If you're unhappy get a second opinion from another dealer.
