Is it OK to drive with a check engine light on? Intermittent Check Engine Light: If the check engine light on your 2019 430i xDrive Gran Coupe is not steady, try to take note of the conditions when this happens. For example, does it happen when you accelerating, driving on the highway or does it appear at low speeds? This will help your mechanic evaluate the issue. Steady Check Engine Light: If your check engine light is on every time you operate your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe, you need to have it checked as soon as possible, especially if you notice performance problems or unusual noises.
