I took my 06 330i to a longer journey yesterday. After about an hour of hard driving, car gives me an exclamation warning and some smoke pouring from the front end (I suppose brake pads) so I stopped the car to let it cool down a bit. When I started the car again, in addition to the brake warnings, there is this DSC warning.

So it looks bad. I checked brake fluid and noticed it is at min mark. The last brake fluid change was about 4000km ago, so did all this brake fluid evaporated during my vigorous driving or there might be a leak somewhere?

Then about the DSC. I ve read about possible Steering Sensor failure, but does it happens after hard driving? Could it be something else?

Pull the codes are go from there. Not much we can help do without them.

How's your battery? Check that because a bad battery will cause you all sorts of "Christmas tree" issues.

Had som crap like this combined with rpm cutouts here and there - pull codes yes, mine was tricky ground was bad to firewall. My master mechanic had to work hard to find it! Good luck. My codes were nonsense, luckily be felt they were wrong and saved me bunch of parts, including some of the ones you mentioned.

Is it bad that I initially thought you quickly went for a Christmas tree after spirited driving, then I remembered that it's September?

Smoke pouring out of the front end concerns me. Do you have brake fluid leaking that's burning up? I've tracked my car and never had smoke after repeated braking from high speeds.

Just used an ELM327 v1.5 based OBD2 bluetooth reader with Torque Pro 1.8.54 app. They communicate fine, read data from the car. But pulled code twice with no code. Meanwhile warning lights are still on.
