  1. Top Reasons Your BMW Is Running Rich & How To Deal With It From Experts in Pontiac

  2. Most of the time BMW drivers are not well acquainted with the complex problems affecting their high-end cars.

  3. One such concerning problem is related to the rich running of the engine of your BMW.

  4. Here are the reasons behind your engine running rich & ways to deal with the problem.

  5. Bad O2 Sensor

  6. The first thing that you must inspect when your car is running rich is the O2 sensor as it monitors the air/fuel mixture present in the exhaust gases.

  7. The information from the sensor is used by the ECU to adjust the flow of fuel into the engine.

  8. If the sensor malfunctions then erroneous details are relayed to the ECU leading to excess fuel being released & this causes the engine to run rich.

  9. Failing Fuel Injectors

  10. Another leading cause behind your BMW running rich is related to the functioning of the fuel injectors in your car.

  11. The pressurized fuel is delivered to the engine through the fuel injectors from the gas tank of your car.

  12. The failure of the fuel injectors might lead to more fuel being delivered & this will cause your car to run rich.

  13. Malfunctioning MAF Sensor

  14. The MAF sensor is responsible for monitoring the amount of air entering the engine & information is relayed to the ECU to adjust the fuel flow.

  15. With a failing MAF sensor, the ECU in your car is going to get the wrong information regarding the amount of air entering the car.

  16. This disturbs the air-to-fuel ratio in your car and would cause your BMW to either run rich or lean.

  17. Faulty Coolant Temperature Sensor (CTS)

  18. The data from the coolant temperature sensor is also relayed to the ECU so that the air/fuel mixture can be adjusted accordingly.

  19. When the engine is running cold it requires more fuel for its efficient functioning & the CTS identified the requirement for additional fuel.

  20. A faulty CTS can cause more fuel to flow into the engine leading to the rich running of the luxury car.

  21. Conclusion

  22. These are some of the leading factors that cause your BMW to run rich.

  23. You should immediately get in touch with a certified repair shop to get your BMW diagnosed & fixed.
