Hi /o/,
My mom drives a 2007 BMW 525i, and just today she texted me for help. Apparently, the car shut down and sputtered on the side of CA-46 (the weather there is 98 degrees fahrenheit, last I checked), with no warnings or alerts. She has tried to start the car again, but the engine starts and then immediately dies.
What do, /o/? I have no idea how to maintain BMWs, nor what problems they may chronically suffer from.

it means that most likely you have a engine cooling system failure, and you should immediately stop trying to turn on the engine and fork over 1.4k to your nearest stealership for a BRAND new cooling system kit.
no meme, my dude. BMWs have this issue.

Bad distributor, disconnect it then prod it with a screw driver until it works.

Could be the cooling issue if your mom was too stupid like to watch for the temperature gauge.
Or the compression might shoot up if the engine is WAY too hot.
But since its a german car from 2007 i am gonna assume its some ECU bullshit trying to ask you to take it to the nearest BMW-brand-certified-dealer for you to spend thousands on a sensor change.
