Hello everyone,
I've noticed a small portion of a cable hanging from under the car...! I was wondering if I should be worried? Should I go to the garage to tighten the cable?
thanks for the help
Here's the ULR my attached pictures.

Exhaust temperature sensor. it is where it should be. You can tug on the other end past the holder clip a little if you want.
Not sure you'd need to go to a shop to do so.

Ah I see, no ramps or similar at home?
You will not access it from engine bay.
Then, if you (or a shop?) can get under it, just pull a bit on the wire towards the transfer case (its connector is nearby).

Congratulations on having a 328d wagon. They're great cars. My 2014 wagon is a wonderful vehicle.

Ok i will go to a shop, because I cant get under it.. Do you think I can wait after winter, when I change for summer tires ?
And thank you, I love it.. First bmw !
i was able to reach the cable and tug the other end of it. However it didn't move much. Cable felt stuck. If its not a problem, ill just leave it like that.
even if it breaks,Id get an error message for exhaust sensor I assume ?

I have this really old picture that I found of mine on my phone.
It definitely could be pulled inwards a little. The connector is right there, so you have to pull on the correct side of it in order to move it through the clip.
