Hi everyone, I have a 2009 BMW 5 Series with a gasoline engine and 143,000 km on the odometer. After 5 months of inactivity, the battery died, so I replaced it. Since then, the 'Check engine soon' light is on. I've driven about 400 kilometers since the inactivity. A reset doesn't help and a diagnostic scan doesn't provide any clarity. What could the problem be? Thanks in advance for your help!

Check if the gas cap is properly tightened, as a loose cap can trigger the check engine light. If the cap is secure, inspect it for any damage or wear. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.
