2006 BMW 530i Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my 530i? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. It’s just your 530i firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why is my BMW 530i making engine noise? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your BMW 530i engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a BMW engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your BMW 530i 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 pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I put water in my BMW 530i 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.
