2012 BMW 650i Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your BMW? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a BMW 650i? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 650i’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
