Never happened to me but a few months ago while at Long Beach BMW, I was getting oil changed and started talking to another M3 owner who brought his car in for service. He told me he ran out of gas and now CEL is on. While we were talking, the service guy came over and told him that his car was fixed. The service guy said it happens sometimes when people run out of gas and all they needed to do was clear the code. I asked the service guy why that happens and he said that it is bad to run these cars on empty and that sometimes parts get damaged. The service guy said never try to drive your car around on less then 1/4 tank of gas. So before all the comments start, I am only repeating what the service tech at Long Beach BMW said, not me!!!!
