Why did the engine light on the BMW X3 E83 come on?
Years 2003-2010

Answer

The BMW X3 E83 was the first and certainly the best of the Bavarian company's SUVs; his heirs, mainly due to the defects of the N47 engine, have not been able to replicate its reliability. The possible turning on of the engine warning light could depend on a clogging problem in the diesel filter, a fault in the air mass meter, but this model is really very very reliable; a critical element may be the turbine.
