At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my 740i xDrive?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your 740i xDrive, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs.
