These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I use water in my BMW M3 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your M3 radiator in emergencies.
