Fremont, CA – We Offer Car Auto Repair Services for East Bay Area BMW Owners

People have some opinions on what the BMW means. It is the car of the upper class. Whether you are on the road or on the racetrack, anyone who sees you pass them in a BMW will know that you made it. Maintaining that image means maintaining your car as well.

But car maintenance is hardly easy. There are so many problems that can afflict such a complex machine whose tasks are really limited to getting you where you need to go and looking good while doing it. But what problems does a BMW owner need to look for?

The BMW has a few known issues that are surefire signs that you need to visit a repair shop.

When Should You Seek Out Repairs for Your BMW?

Knowing when to go in to get your repairs can mean the difference between maintenance that takes an afternoon and maintenance that takes more than a week. So, let’s go over what you will probably hear, see, and feel from your vehicle that means you should take it in.

1. Engine Temperature Light

This is one of those dashboard lights that not everyone will recognize immediately. It is shaped like a thermometer, and you have probably seen it turn on in the winter when your engine has to heat up before it can be very efficient, or before your air conditioning can produce heat.

In this case, the light will turn red. That indicates your engine has a known heat management problem in the engine. Going in and getting this fixed will keep it from happening again.

1. Oil Leaks

These are not as bad as they sound. Your BMW’s oil system is complex. People imagine oil leaks as causing liquid to flow from their car like blood from a wound. But an oil leak is as much about a loss in oil efficiency as it is about an actual loss of the oil itself.

This can mean engine maintenance as frequently as it can mean oil line maintenance.

1. Shaking When Braking

Vibrations and shuddering when you apply the brakes have become a staple problem of modern cars. It is a result of transmission issues, hence why this happens whenever you apply the brakes. Most cars are using the same innovations in transmission technology, meaning they share the same problems. In any case, you will find the problem is easy to solve.
