2016 BMW 535i Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my 535i turn on when I start my car? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your 535i testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my BMW engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your BMW 535i 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 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 535i engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I add water to my BMW 535i radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your 535i radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What can cause the engine in my 535i to suddenly stop? If your 535i car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
