WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2005 BMW 745i, 2005 BMW 745Li, 2004 BMW 745i, 2004 BMW 745Li, and 2003 BMW 745i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Before starting the engine for the first time, if the tank has been run dry or drawn off, fill with diesel fuel and turn on ignition for approx. 1 minute. The fuel circuit is thus filled and vented, which results in the engine firing more quickly.
