1. BMW Shuts Off
While Driving:
Here are the
Causes from
Certified
Mechanics in
Pontiac

2. BMW is one of the most
popular luxury cars in the world
known for its performance.

3. However, like other high-
end cars, BMW also faces
its fair share of issues in
its lifetime.

4. At times, your
BMW might shut
off while you are
driving leaving
you stranded in
the middle of the
road.

5. Here are the factors that
cause your BMW to shut
off while driving.

6. Problems with
the Battery

7. Whenever you experience your car shutting off while
driving, then it is time to have a look at the battery.

8. The battery is responsible
for starting your car &
when the battery is not
able to charge itself, then
your vehicle will shut off.

9. There are instances where
corroded terminals of the
battery cause these kinds
of problems.

10. Crankshaft
Position Sensor
Failure

11. A faulty camshaft position
sensor can be the biggest
hindrance to the smooth
running of your BMW.

12. Because it will not be
able to send valuable
information regarding
the position of the piston
to the ECU.

13. This results in a
misfire and
often your car
shutting off in
the middle of
the road.

14. Malfunctioning
Engine Control Unit

15. The ECU collects information
from various parts of the
engine and keeps a tab on
the functioning of the
components.

16. However, a malfunctioning
ECU can lead to a host of
issues like a sudden drop
in power, fuel efficiency &
spark loss.

17. This can cause your BMW
to shut off & you might
also experience jerking
and stalling of your car.

18. Bad Fuel Pump

19. The engine always requires
a proper supply of
pressurized fuel for efficient
combustion & it is provided
by the fuel pump.

20. However, if
there is any
sort of issue
with the
delivery of fuel
to the engine,
then it is going
to shut off.

21. Most of the time you have to
replace the bad fuel pump &
also the fuel filter to get rid
of the issue.

22. These are some of the
leading causes behind
your BMW shutting off
while driving.

23. Take your BMW to a
certified repair shop for
diagnosing and fixing the
problems.
