speedf,

Okay, so I just picked up the car last night after BMW directed the dealer to do another "reset/reboot" which is BS because they've already done that. I knew when I picked it up I'd be back soon and sure enough, it came back as soon as I stopped at am/pm for a monster and got back in (which is the normal sequence of events if want to reproduce the error). I took it right back to service so my advisor could run a scan on it while the screen was no signal. This time they were able to produce the fault code that called out a faulty CIC control unit, and a second page said something about the head unit but not sure if it was to replace or reprogram after CIC replacement. No call today from service so I'm sure they had to order the part. I'm pretty sure the replacement of this and/or the CIC head unit is the correct fix. I will post back hopefully in a couple of days. The key is to drive it right to the dealer so they can pull the codes while the no signal is displayed.
