Question
I just got a 2006 BMW 330ix w/out a manual. I had a light pop on this morning. It was a snowflake inside a triangle. I am assuming it is coolant needs to be added, but it was 38 degrees this morning. By the way, it stayed on for about 10 seconds.
Can you help me out?

Thanks, David

Answer
Sorry, not familiar with that model.

BMW's flag you at 38F to let you know roads can be getting slippery.  It could be that this is what this symbol is.

I'd get a manual.  You'll need it for other things.  Check ebay before getting another through the dealer.
