Hey, everyone. I just had this issue pop up yesterday on a 2017 N20 engine. We've had a pretty bad cold snap here in New Orleans (for us!) this week with temps going as low as about 18 degrees F. My X3 had sat for several days without me driving it. I figured I would go out and drive it to keep the battery from going dead and upon startup got the Drivetrain Malfunction error.
I figured it must be related to the cold weather so I drove it around with reduced power for about 10 minutes but the error never went away. Went back home, let the car sit for a bit, restarted it and the error was gone. I read through several pages of this thread where the PDM seems to be the cause and that a fix was on the way.
This thread started in 2014, so was there ever a fix? Mine's a 2017! Should I take it to the dealer? Or be concerned? Thanks!
