Engine Q&A 2011 BMW X5

  • Why does the check engine light in my X5 turn on when I start my car? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. It’s just your X5 firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why does my BMW engine sound different? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your BMW X5 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my BMW X5 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 accelerating too quickly, too soon. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I add water to my BMW X5 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your X5 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 X5 to suddenly stop? Reasons your X5 car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
