Questions About 2012 BMW 528i xDrive Engines

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my 528i xDrive? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your 528i xDrive firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are BMW 528i xDrive engine noises bad? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your BMW 528i xDrive engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing can be traced back to 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 528i xDrive 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. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I add water to my BMW 528i xDrive radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your 528i xDrive when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What could cause my 528i xDrive engine to suddenly stop? There are different reasons your 528i xDrive vehicle engine could suddenly stop. You may be looking at a lack of fuel, faulty sensors, issues with the ignition system, engine overheating, electrical problems, or mechanical troubles.
