Turbocharger issues
Given the high horsepower (322 hp) and the turbocharged engine, there may be problems with turbocharger wear and tear, leading to reduced performance or turbo lag.
Carbon buildup
Direct injection engines, like the one in the BMW 740i, are prone to carbon buildup on intake valves, which can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Oil leaks
BMW engines, especially the N-series, can be prone to oil leaks from various seals and gaskets, such as the valve cover gasket or oil filter housing gasket.
High-pressure fuel pump failure
The high-performance nature of the engine can lead to premature wear of the high-pressure fuel pump, causing starting issues and performance drops.
Cooling system failures
BMWs are known for having complex cooling systems that can fail, leading to overheating issues which can cause severe engine damage.
Electrical problems
Modern BMWs, including the 2019 740i, have complex electrical systems that can develop issues with sensors, wiring, and control modules.
Timing chain issues
Some BMW engines have experienced timing chain stretch or failure, which can lead to serious engine damage if not addressed promptly.
Transmission problems
The advanced automatic transmissions in BMWs can sometimes have issues with shifting smoothly or failing outright, especially if not properly maintained.
