Ive just bought 2002 BMW525i but the engine block light on the dash board remains on during the drive
Sounds like your check engine light is on. On 99ish 3 series the check engine light was an amber engine in the instrument cluster. I thought 5 series actually said service engine soon. If you cycle your key the bulb check should illuminate all lights. see if you have a light that says service engine soon, if not, the amber engine, is the check engine light.
That is the check engine light. It may be just a reminder to service the emissions system on the vehicle. BMW and Mercedes both turn this light on at predetermined intervals. A special tool is required to reset the system and turn off the light. It is available through most auto parts stores.
Hi
Check the manufacturers manual for warning lights and there meanings, this will give you an idea of the possible causes that would active the engine light, also it generates a code that can be read by a diagnostic tool.
So maybe a call to a garage for a diagnostic quote may help as well.
cheers
