Can BMW service save me money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

How do I know if my BMW drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your BMW 435i? 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.

When should I come in for BMW 435i differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

What causes a 435i’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

Can you clear the 435i check engine light on your own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your 435i's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.
