How often will I need BMW 640i Gran Coupe differential service?

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a 640i Gran Coupe?

A multitude of problems can activate your 640i Gran Coupe’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Is it possible to reset the 640i Gran Coupe malfunction warning light on my own?

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.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my 640i Gran Coupe serious?

Is my 640i Gran Coupe’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 640i Gran Coupe forward.
