Some BMW 335d owners report experiencing intermittent service engine light issues that may be related to various sensors or components. These problems can arise when the "Service Engine Soon" light illuminates due to emissions-related issues or engine problems, which may range from a loose gas cap to a faulty catalytic converter or engine misfire. Common triggers for the check engine light include faulty oxygen sensors, catalytic converters, or spark plugs. Additionally, specific issues such as VANOS problems, cracked or loose hoses, old batteries, malfunctioning mass air flow sensors, low fuel levels, bad charcoal canisters, wire harness issues, High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) failures, crankshaft sensor problems, and faulty injectors can also activate the warning light. Owners are advised to diagnose the service engine/check engine light codes using a scanner tool to identify and resolve the issue promptly, ensuring the vehicle operates correctly.
