I had the problem on my X1 F48 2017 model. Assume it’s software have bugs. Tested to call SOS after shows SOS system failure message, get through perfectly, which proves the system NOT failure. Used voice control coincidentally last week, the fault message disappeared dramatically, and didn’t back till today. I rarely use voice control before, have tried to disconnect blue tooth device and reconnect from other youtube video, didn’t work well. Can’t say it’s the solution, but cost nothing and worth a try.

Hi I have BMW 320D 2018 M sport saloon, I have SOS failure on instrument cluster. I looked up online and found if you replace battery in telematic this should fix the issue so I did replace the battery but SOS error came back. I took my car to BMW approved garage and they said after battery replacement it require recalibration to get ride of this error. After recalibration SOS error didn’t clear. They told me that you need a new recalibration unit to fix this issue which comes from Germany and will cost over £600 + labour etc. But if this unit is faulty then how come I am able to make SOS call and able to read live information from my car on MyBMW app on my IPhone?

[@Chris22346]

My SOS Malfunction was caused by a failing satellite radio module in the back of the car, the speakers were also popping/cracking when the car wasn't even turned on. It was very weird, I thought I had a blown speaker at first. Apparently the failing satellite radio module is quite common in the 2008 bmw 328i. I fixed it with a fiber optic loop.

[@BMWDoctor]

The fibre optic loop is only temporary and WILL fail again needing to properly code it out to stop it and the light I warn you of that

[@Chris22346]

@@BMWDoctor I don't see why it would fail again since the module is now being bypassed, but you know more about the cars than me lol. I'm not so worried about the SOS malfunction light, but the popping in the speakers was really getting to me. People on the forums were saying it was the amp, but I figured out that wasn't the problem. I'm glad I got it figured out though. The SOS light and the weird loud popping/cracking in the speakers are now both gone after I bypassed the satellite radio module.

Makes sense reason is before changing the Vanos solenoids you hear valves rattling when revving engine on Park On the exhaust side was giving me problems replace 3 Vanos Solenoid on that side. when driving the car I could hear the valves rattling and the engine lose power and transmission shifts rapidly making the car difficult to keep up with traffic when and again I accelerate hearing valves rattling in the engine compartment. releasing accelerator enough to keep with traffic it's okay but when I release accelerator (at 45 miles) the car wants to slow down and down shift quick
