Questions About 2014 BMW 328i

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  •  Can BMW drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are the symptoms of a damaged BMW drivetrain system? Hear noises toward the back of your BMW 328i? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.
  • How often should I come in for BMW 328i differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is my 328i malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your 328i can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Can my 328i malfunction warning light be reset at home? Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my 328i? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your 328i. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your 328i.
  • Does my 328i drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 328i’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 328i forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
