Problems:
Oil leaks
BMW engines, including the 335d, are known for developing oil leaks from various parts such as the valve cover gasket, oil filter housing gasket, and oil pan gasket.
Carbon build-up
Diesel engines, like the one in the 335d, can suffer from carbon build-up in the intake manifold and EGR valve, leading to reduced performance and fuel efficiency.
Turbocharger failure
The turbochargers in the BMW 335d can be prone to failure due to high operating temperatures and pressures, leading to loss of power and increased exhaust smoke.
Dpf (diesel particulate filter) issues
The DPF can become clogged over time, causing reduced engine performance, increased fuel consumption, and can trigger the check engine light.
Glow plug failure
Diesel engines use glow plugs to aid in starting, especially in cold weather. Faulty glow plugs in the 335d can cause hard starting and increased emissions.
High-pressure fuel pump failure
The high-pressure fuel pump in the BMW 335d can fail, leading to poor engine performance, stalling, and difficulty starting.
Injector problems
Diesel injectors can become clogged or fail over time, causing misfires, rough idling, and reduced fuel economy.
Cooling system issues
The cooling system in the BMW 335d can develop leaks, particularly from the water pump and thermostat, causing overheating and potential engine damage.
