Diesel engine

Do not refuel with rapeseed
methyl ester (RME), biodiesel or

petrol, as otherwise there is a risk of
damaging the engine.

The engine of your BMW is designed to
run on: Diesel fuel to DIN EN 590
standard.

Rapeseed methyl ester version*:

For important information on running
the car on rapeseed methyl ester, see
the separate operating instructions.

Winter diesel

To ensure that the diesel engine oper-
ates reliably during the cold season of
the year, it must be run on winter-grade
diesel oil, which garages usually sell
during the period in question. Fuel filter
heating is installed as standard equip-
ment to prevent the fuel from solidifying
during operation.

Do not use additives, not even
petrol, as otherwise there is a risk

of damaging the engine.

Tyre pressures

Tyre pressures for tyres at ambient
