NHTSA recall 22V614000
Engine And Engine Cooling · BMW of North America, LLC
Details
What's wrong: BMW of north america, LLC. (BMW) is recalling certain 2018 540D xdrive vehicles equipped with an exhaust gas recirculation (egr) module with an integrated cooler. The egr cooler may leak internally, causing coolant to mix with diesel engine soot, which could result in smoldering particles and a melting intake manifold.
Why it matters: A melting intake manifold increases the risk of fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the egr module, and the intake manifold will be inspected and replaced, if necessary, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on October 7, 2022. Owner notification letters were mailed December 30, 2022.
