Engine Q&A 2011 BMW 135i

  • Why does my 135i’s check engine light come on when I start it? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. It’s just your 135i firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why does my BMW engine sound different? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your BMW 135i. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my BMW 135i engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I put water in my BMW 135i radiator? Only in emergencies. A 50/50 mix of coolant and water (or a pre-mixed) coolant is recommended. However, if you must keep driving when you're out of coolant, it's better to drive with water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What could cause my 135i engine to suddenly stop? Your 135i car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
