Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Cooler
Safety Recall 22V-614
Model Year 2018
BMW 540d xDrive
Diesel Engines (6-cyl. – B57O)
Last updated: August 10, 2022
Q1. Which BMW Group models in the US are potentially affected by this Safety Recall?
Certain Model Year 2018 BMW 540d xDrive vehicles with a 6-cylinder (“B57O”) diesel engine in the US are potentially affected.
Q2. What is the specific issue?
The issue involves the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system which contains an integrated cooling component (“Cooler”). Over time, a leak of cooling fluid (glycol), could develop in the EGR Cooler.
Q3. What can happen as a result of this issue?
If cooling fluid leaks in the EGR Cooler, and combines with typical diesel engine soot deposits while the temperature is high (which is normal), this could create smoldering particles. In very rare cases, these particles could contact the engine intake manifold and cause damage by creating small holes in the manifold due to melting. In extremely rare cases, due to the holes in the manifold, this could increase the risk of a fire. If you are not the only driver of this vehicle, please advise all other drivers of this important information.
Q4. Are BMW Group models, which are not Diesel, affected? Why not?
No. They are not affected because they have a different engine design.
Q5. How did BMW Group become aware of this issue?
BMW Group became aware of this issue through its quality control procedures.
Q6. Can I determine if this issue exists in my vehicle?
While it’s highly unlikely that this issue will occur, if your vehicle has an unpleasant odor, i.e., an odor of exhaust gas and you hear an unusual noise from the engine compartment, your vehicle may be experiencing this issue. In rare cases, you may see smoke from the engine.
Q7. What should I do if I notice this condition in my vehicle?
If this condition occurs, pull off the road to a safe location away from traffic, and switch off the engine. Do not open the hood. All occupants should carefully exit the vehicle and move to a safe location away from traffic. Do not continue to drive your vehicle.
Contact BMW Roadside Assistance at 1-800-332-4269 immediately to have your vehicle brought to the nearest authorized BMW center. You may be responsible to pay for the tow if you no longer have coverage and reimbursement will be considered should the issue be confirmed to be related to this recall.
Q8. Can I continue to drive my vehicle (before I get my vehicle repaired)?
Yes. The likelihood of this issue occurring to your vehicle is extremely low. However, when you receive a letter asking you to have this Safety Recall performed by an authorized BMW center, please do so as soon as possible.
Q9. How will I be informed of this Safety Recall?
Owners of potentially affected vehicles will receive a letter in October via First Class mail advising them of this Safety Recall. When parts become available, they will receive another letter, requesting they schedule an appointment with an authorized BMW center as soon as possible to have this Safety Recall performed. For the latest updates to this Safety Recall, please visit bmwusa.com/recall.
To ensure BMW has your recent contact and vehicle information, owners should visit bmwusa.com/recall and click on “Manage recall notices and contact information”.
Q10. How will my vehicle be repaired?
The EGR Cooler will be replaced with an improved version. If it is determined that the EGR Cooler has leaked, the engine intake manifold will also be replaced.
Q11. How long will the repair take?
The repair will be performed for free, and could take up to several hours to perform.
Q12. Do I have to wait for my letter to have my vehicle serviced?
Yes. We are in the process of implementing this Safety Recall campaign to ensure that the necessary parts are at the BMW centers. For the latest updates to this Safety Recall, please visit bmwusa.com/recall.
Q13. I see a reference to the “TREAD Act Customer Reimbursement Plan” in my customer letter. Can you explain what that is about? Am I eligible for reimbursement?
If you have already had this repair performed at your own expense, you may be eligible for reimbursement of certain expenses that you incurred. Please visit bmwusa.com/recall and click on “Reimbursement for Prior Customer Pay Repairs Related to a Safety Recall (TREAD Act)”.
Chronology :
Please refer to BMW’s November 19, 2021 Part 573 report (NHTSA Recall ID 21V-907), and October 25, 2018 Part 573 report (NHTSA Recall ID 18V-755). After implementation of these recalls, the field continued to be monitored for any further actions, if warranted.
The vehicles subject to this 2022 decision have a different design and manufacturer of the EGR cooler than the vehicles subject to 21V-907 and 18V-755. At the time, the field data for the vehicles subject to this 2022 decision indicated that an action was not necessary.
After further worldwide field monitoring, and a comprehensive review of field data, including statistical forecasting, it was indicated that the specific EGR cooler for the vehicles subject to this 2022 decision may not be sufficiently robust over a vehicle’s lifetime. Therefore, BMW has decided to perform a worldwide field action for these specific vehicles, and to also include the US market. As of the 2022 decision, there are still no known incidents in the US.
On August 3, 2022, in an abundance of caution, BMW decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall.
BMW has not received any reports, nor is BMW otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.

BMW AG ha determinado que algunos vehículos de los modelos de motor diésel de la Serie 5 de BMW, del año 2018, tienen un defecto relacionado con la seguridad de los vehículos motorizados. Nuestros registros indican que usted es el propietario de un vehículo posiblemente afectado. ¿Por qué nos comunicamos con usted? Le informamos sobre una retirada de su vehículo por motivos de seguridad, aunque no podemos brindarle una solución al problema en este momento. Le enviaremos otra carta de notificación en cuanto podamos realizar esta retirada por motivos de seguridad. ¿Qué podría suceder? Podría producirse una fuga interna en el enfriador de la recirculación de gases de escape (EGR) del motor. El líquido refrigerante podría mezclarse con los depósitos de hollín típicos de los motores diésel. Con las altas temperaturas que se presentan normalmente en elmódulo EGR, esto podría derivar en partículas incandescentes. Si estas partículas entran en contacto con el colector de admisión del motor, podrían crear pequeños agujeros al derretirse, lo que aumentaría el riesgo de incendio. Si siente un olor desagradable, como a gases de escape, y escucha un ruido raro en el compartimento del motor, es posible que su vehículo esté teniendo este problema. Puede que vea humo saliendo del motor. Si esto sucede, aléjese con cuidado del tráfico lo antes posible, deténgase en un lugar seguro y corte el suministro. No siga conduciendo el vehículo. Todos los ocupantes deben salir del vehículo y dirigirse a un lugar seguro lejos del tráfico. En caso de emergencia, llame al 911. Si no es una emergencia, llame a Asistencia en la carretera de BMW(BMWRoadside Assistance) al 1-800-332-4269. Si usted no es la única persona que conduce este vehículo, comparta esta información importante con todos los demás conductores y pasajeros. Si es arrendador del vehículo, las reglamentaciones federales exigen que reenvíe este aviso a su arrendatario en un plazo de diez días. ¿Qué hará BMW? Cuando el repuesto esté disponible, se reemplazará el enfriador de la EGR y se revisará el colector de admisión y, de ser necesario, se reemplazará de forma gratuita, lo que podría demorar varias horas. Podría haber algunas opciones para ayudar a subsanar el inconveniente de traer su vehículo para que se realice el servicio, de ser necesario.

Attachment to B11 02 22 August 2022 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Cooler Safety Recall 22V-614 Model Year 2018 BMW 540d xDrive Diesel Engines (6-cyl. – B57O) Last updated: August 10, 2022 Q1. Which BMW Group models in the US are potentially affected by this Safety Recall? Certain Model Year 2018 BMW 540d xDrive vehicles with a 6-cylinder (“B57O”) diesel engine in the US are potentially affected. Q2. What is the specific issue? The issue involves the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system which contains an integrated cooling component (“Cooler”). Over time, a leak of cooling fluid (glycol), could develop in the EGR Cooler. Q3. What can happen as a result of this issue? If cooling fluid leaks in the EGR Cooler, and combines with typical diesel engine soot deposits while the temperature is high (which is normal), this could create smoldering particles. In very rare cases, these particles could contact the engine intake manifold and cause damage by creating small holes in the manifold due to melting. In extremely rare cases, due to the holes in the manifold, this could increase the risk of a fire. If you are not the only driver of this vehicle, please advise all other drivers of this important information. Q4. Are BMW Group models, which are not Diesel, affected? Why not? No. They are not affected because they have a different engine design. Q5. How did BMW Group become aware of this issue? BMW Group became aware of this issue through its quality control procedures. Q6. Can I determine if this issue exists in my vehicle? While it’s highly unlikely that this issue will occur, if your vehicle has an unpleasant odor, i.e., an odor of exhaust gas and you hear an unusual noise from the engine compartment, your vehicle may be experiencing this issue. In rare cases, you may see smoke from the engine. Q7. What should I do if I notice this condition in my vehicle? If this condition occurs, pull off the road to a safe location away from traffic, and switch off the engine. Do not open the hood. All occupants should carefully exit the vehicle and move to a safe location away from traffic. Do not continue to drive your vehicle. Contact BMW Roadside Assistance at 1-800-332-4269 immediately to have your vehicle brought to the nearest authorized BMW center. You may be responsible to pay for the tow if you no longer have coverage and reimbursement will be considered should the issue be confirmed to be related to this recall. Q8. Can I continue to drive my vehicle (before I get my vehicle repaired)? Yes. The likelihood of this issue occurring to your vehicle is extremely low. However, when you receive a letter asking you to have this Safety Recall performed by an authorized BMW center, please do so as soon as possible. Q9. How will I be informed of this Safety Recall? Owners of potentially affected vehicles will receive a letter in October via First Class mail advising them of this Safety Recall. When parts become available, they will receive another letter, requesting they schedule an appointment with an authorized BMW center as soon as possible to have this Safety Recall performed. For the latest updates to this Safety Recall, please visit bmwusa.com/recall. To ensure BMW has your recent contact and vehicle information, owners should visit bmwusa.com/recall and click on “Manage recall notices and contact information”. Q10. How will my vehicle be repaired?

If it is determined that the EGR Cooler has leaked, the engine intake manifold will also be replaced. Q11. How long will the repair take? The repair will be performed for free, and could take up to several hours to perform. Q12. Do I have to wait for my letter to have my vehicle serviced? Yes. We are in the process of implementing this Safety Recall campaign to ensure that the necessary parts are at the BMW centers. For the latest updates to this Safety Recall, please visit bmwusa.com/recall. Q13. I see a reference to the “TREAD Act Customer Reimbursement Plan” in my customer letter. Can you explain what that is about? Am I eligible for reimbursement?

Basis for recall population determination: Supplier production information was used to identify the start date and end date of potentially affected EGR modules, of a specific design configuration. Recall component difference to non-recall component: Recall component was not produced with sufficient long-term durability characteristics. Production Dates : OCT 09, 2017 – JUN 25, 2018 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Defect : Description of the Defect : This safety recall involves the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) module with an integrated cooling component (“cooler”). Over time, it is possible for an internal leak to start within the EGR cooler. FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : During vehicle operation, if an internal coolant leak were to start within the EGR cooler, the fluid could mix with normal diesel engine soot/sediment. In combination with high temperatures normally present in the EGR module, Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-614 Page 2 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 this might result in smoldering particles. In very rare cases, this could lead to the melting of the intake manifold, and in extremely rare cases result in a possible fire. Description of the Cause : NR Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : During vehicle operation, the driver may be alerted to this condition by one or more of the following: A warning symbol in the instrument cluster displaying a loss of engine coolant, a reduction in engine power, an unpleasant odor (exhaust gas), an unusual noise from the engine compartment, and/or smoke from the engine compartment.
