Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

DBS is designed to help in emergency braking situations. If malfunctioning, it may not provide the necessary braking force, increasing stopping distance.

Turbocharger issues

With a high-performance engine, the turbocharger can sometimes fail or degrade, leading to reduced power and efficiency.

Oil leaks

BMWs, especially those with more complex engines, can be prone to oil leaks from various seals and gaskets.

Timing chain problems

Certain BMW models have experienced timing chain issues, which can lead to significant engine damage if not addressed.

Electrical system faults

Modern BMWs are equipped with complex electrical systems that can sometimes fail, causing issues with various vehicle functions.

Cooling system failures

BMWs can experience problems with their cooling systems, including water pump and radiator failures, which can lead to overheating.

Fuel system issues

Problems with the fuel injectors or fuel pump can lead to poor performance and fuel efficiency.
