Check Engine Light Flashing
The sight of a flashing check engine light in your 2020 BMW M4 signals a potentially severe condition that can damage the engine or turbochargers if not addressed immediately. A flashing light typically indicates misfires, fueling problems, or ignition issues that can send unburned fuel into the exhaust — risking catalytic converter damage and expensive downstream repairs. At Nalley BMW of Decatur, our certified technicians use factory-grade diagnostic tools to identify misfires quickly, isolate the affected cylinder or system, and advise on the most cost-effective path to repair. Acting quickly not only reduces repair bills but preserves the performance character and resale value of your M4.

2020 BMW M4 Check Engine Light Codes
Common diagnostic trouble codes for the 2020 BMW M4 often point to oxygen sensors (P013x/P014x), turbocharger boost sensors, misfires (P030x), and catalytic converter efficiency (P0420). Left unfixed, each of these can escalate costs: an oxygen sensor left faulty can reduce fuel economy and lead to catalytic damage; a misfire can erode the catalytic converter and damage pistons; turbo issues can lead to power loss and costly turbo replacement. Nalley BMW of Decatur in Decatur, GA, offers precise code interpretation and OEM repairs to prevent that cascade of failures. Our factory-trained technicians and OEM parts reduce repeat repairs and deliver the correct fix the first time — often resulting in lower overall costs than independent shops over the life of the vehicle.

To protect warranty benefits and maximize long-term savings, schedule appointment and review our service specials before you arrive.
2020 BMW M4 Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting a check engine light on a 2020 BMW M4 is straightforward technically, but doing so without addressing the root cause risks returning faults and hidden damage.

Resetting at the dealership ensures the issue is resolved properly and that warranty terms remain intact — any warranty-covered repair must be performed at a certified dealer to be valid.
