However, like any other car, BMW 2007-M6 also requires refueling to operate optimally. This article will discuss the process of refueling the BMW 2007-M6, including the types of fuel that can be used and tips for refueling safely and efficiently.
⚠ Switch off the engine before refueling, otherwise no fuel can be filled into the tank and a message is displayed.
⚠ When handling fuel, always observe all applicable precautionary measures and regulations. Never transport reserve fuel containers in the vehicle. They can leak and cause an explosion or a fire in an accident.
Fuel filler door
To open and close: briefly press the rear edge of the fuel filler door.
Unlocking manually
In the event of an electrical malfunction, you can release the fuel filler door manually: In the luggage compartment, pull the knob with the gas pump symbol on the right side panel.
Observe the following when refueling
⚠ When handling fuels always follow any safety guidelines posted at the gas station.
Place the fuel filler cap in the bracket attached to the fuel filler door. When refueling, insert the filler nozzle completely into the filler pipe. Avoid raising the filler nozzle during refueling, otherwise this
- results in premature pump shutoff
- can lead to reduced efficiency in the fuelvapor recovery system
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle clicks off the first time.
Fuel tank capacity
Approx. 18.5 US gal/70 liters, including the reserve capacity of approx.4 US gal/15 liters.
⚠ Refuel as soon as possible once your cruising range falls below 30 miles/ 50 km, otherwise engine functions are not ensured and damage can occur.
Fuel filler cap
Closing
Insert the cap and turn it clockwise until there is a clearly audible click.
⚠ Do not jam the strap attached to the fuel filler cap between the fuel filler cap and the vehicle. A message* is displayed if the cap is loose or missing.
Fuel specifications
⚠ Never used leaded gasoline; it will permanently damage the catalytic converter. Do not use E85, i.e. fuel that consists of 85% ethanol, or Flex Fuel. Otherwise permanent damage to the engine and the fuel supply system will result.
Required fuel
Super Premium Gasoline/AKI 93
Always use this premium grade fuel to obtain maximum fuel economy and performance. The minimum approved fuel grade is AKI 91.
⚠ Do not use gasoline below the specified minimum quality, otherwise engine damage can result.
Use high-quality brands
Field experience has demonstrated significant differences in fuel quality: volatility, composition, additives, etc., among gasolines offered for sale in the United States and Canada. Fuels containing up to and including 10% ethanol or other oxygenates with up to 2.8% oxygen by weight, that is, 15% MTBE or 3% methanol plus an equivalent amount of cosolvent, will not void the applicable warranties with respect
to defects in materials or workmanship.
⚠The use of poor-quality fuels may result in problems relating to drivability and starting, and to a tendency to stall, especially under certain environmental conditions such as high ambient temperature and high altitude. Should you encounter drivability problems which you suspect could be related to the fuel you are using, we recommend that you respond by switching to a recognized high-quality brand such as gasoline that is advertised as Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. Failure to comply with these recommendations may also result in unscheduled maintenance.
