Engine Malfunction Sign
I need some help, I have a 2011 535i(less than 40k miles), I was driving home last night and the engine malfunction sign showed up along with engine will not restart after stop and also the car was operating at reduction power. I made it home( about 30 miles) once I pulled into my drive way, I turned the car off waited a minute and restarted( the car cranked and took a few seconds to start) any comments or recommendation for local shops would be a plus. I live in North Jersey.

Did it say drivetrain malfunction? Because if it did. Mine did and it was the high pressure fuel pump. Our cars have 2 fuel pumps and the hi pressure one is the one in the front.

BMW issued a recall for nearly 156k 2010 to 2011 models to fix a defective VANOS bolt that could lead to the engine malfunction described by kit12buy.
