Some BMW 528i xDrive owners report experiencing recurring electrical issues that lead to stalling, often attributed to a tripped fuse. These stalling incidents can stem from various causes, including problems with the idle control valve, vacuum leaks, or fuel delivery issues. Additionally, some owners notice symptoms of a malfunctioning XDrive system, such as flashing warning lights, fluid leaks, unusual sounds when turning, or the vehicle getting stuck in rear-wheel or front-wheel drive. In certain cases, a failed Valvetronic Motor may cause the engine to shake vibrantly and prevent the car from starting, even after checking basic components like fuses and batteries. To effectively diagnose and resolve these electrical issues, it is recommended that owners seek professional assistance from a qualified mechanic or BMW dealership.
