Some BMW 535i GT owners report experiencing engine lock down issues that can lead to stalling on the freeway, which poses serious safety concerns. These stalls may stem from various factors, including faulty components like the fuel pump or crank position sensor, as well as potential problems with the Engine Control Unit (DME). Additionally, electrical issues such as wiring or module malfunctions have been noted as contributing factors to engine stalling. Owners are advised to address these issues promptly to maintain the vehicle's safety and reliability. If stalling occurs consistently or intermittently, particularly during braking, it is recommended that the vehicle be inspected by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and resolve the underlying problems.
