Engine Q&A 2017 BMW 740i

  • Why does my 740i’s check engine light come on when I start it? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your 740i testing its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why is my BMW 740i making engine noise? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your BMW 740i. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my BMW 740i engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I add water to my BMW 740i radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your 740i 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 740i to suddenly stop? There are different reasons your 740i vehicle engine could suddenly stop. You may be looking at a lack of fuel, faulty sensors, issues with the ignition system, engine overheating, electrical problems, or mechanical troubles.
