There are several potential causes for the engine malfunction light to turn on in a BMW X1. One possibility could be a faulty sensor. I recommend taking your car to a certified BMW mechanic to have them run a diagnostic test and determine the root cause of the issue.

Another common cause for the engine malfunction light to turn on in a BMW X1 is a loose or damaged gas cap. Make sure to tighten your gas cap and see if the light turns off. If not, it's best to bring your car to a mechanic for further inspection.
