I was driving on the highway then suddenly my auto-cruise cut off and couldn't restart. Thought maybe just cruise problem so continue my journey. Then few minutes later, air cond went off. Then iDrive display started to blink. Then was really worried, tried to drive on and make it back home. But a few km later, kena Active Steering error..... then ABS error.... finally last straw was when kena Transmission Fault. Decided not to take risk and moved car to the side lane. Once there, switched off car and all electronics (including lights) couldn't be turned on again. Guess with the alternator conked, it was on battery power all the while and slowly battery juice just got sucked dry.Had to tow it to workshop and change a new one. Luckily still under dealer warranty then.</blockquote>
