hey, i'm curious.. natasha, could you please photograpgh the indicator mentioned and post it here?
 
i goggled it...one comment about the fault was
"It looks like a Circle with dash's around the outside (3). It is also red. It is to the left of the E-brake light. (i think)".

One of the response to that was

"Sounds like the brake lining warning indicator. Time to check/change your brake pads or look for a faulty sensor. "

wonder how true is that...did you send your BM to a workshop to check?

Urm, it's round with rectangle edges, around the circle. I tried to google but could not find similar pic of the indicator. NVM, will take pic and upload it when I get home.

Ok could not sleep so did some googling - bmw warning lights, I think it's this sign:

Hmm..brake pads..weird thing it was not there before I fix the aircond!

Can car temperature rise because of the brake pads? Excuse my ignorance eyy
 
That sign means you would need to check on your brake fluid level and the brake pads.. Could be a faulty sensor too.
Since after doing the aircond and your car temperature started to rise, have the air-cond fan checked. It should work on 2 speed.
 
OK latest update.

Sent my carto mechanic for the temperature problem.

No indication of engine heating,no sizzling sound or boiling sound. He
1. Changed the temperature switch (cost about RM100 plus). Ok at first but after sometime still temperature metre showing up very high.
2.Check wiring-OK thermostat OK
3. Now he is trying to find meter switch to test if the meter switch is not working correctly. Hard to find liao..
Will update the progress..

Bye,
natasha
