Interesting. What was the rough age and mileage of your BMW when that happened? Trying to gauge if it's a similar wear-and-tear situation or something else entirely.

It was around 5 years old and had about 120k km on the clock. Like a chain reaction the undervoltage could have long-term implications on the entire car electronics if left unchecked. Honestly, best to get it properly diagnosed; modern car electronics can be a nightmare.

Thanks for the insight! Ended up being the undervoltage issue as suspected. Cost 240€ to sort out. Appreciate the heads-up about the potential computer chaos; definitely nipped it in the bud.

That’s interesting. I had a similar issue on my old BMW a while back – different symptoms, but the error logs kept pointing to seemingly random things. Turns out, a dodgy battery was causing voltage dips and messing with the car's computer system. The car's computer system can act very sensitive sometimes.
