I have add numerous electrical problems with my 98 S70:

The ABS/Trac Light came on requiring ABS module replacement

At least 6 headlight bulbs and two tail light bulbs (if you use the driving lights, expect to replace the headlight bulbs annually).

Rapid turn signal flash rate on 2 occassions

Complete crash of electrical system: Dealer replaced battery twice but the new batteries would fail within 24 hours; engine wouldn't crank even with jumper cables; some of the electronics were fried in the process.

One of the electric locks failed.

Luckily, all of these repairs were done under warranty and nothing really big in the last year. I really miss my old BMW!
