Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

The Dynamic Brake Support system may fail to engage properly, leading to reduced braking performance in emergency situations.

High maintenance costs

The W-shaped 12-cylinder engine can be complex and expensive to maintain and repair due to its intricate design and high-performance components.

Potential overheating issues

High horsepower (700 hp) engines like the DJL model in this Bentley may be prone to overheating if not properly maintained, especially under high-stress conditions.

Fuel consumption

High-performance engines typically have lower fuel efficiency, leading to increased fuel consumption and higher operating costs.

Emissions compliance

Despite being LEV II compliant, maintaining emissions standards can be challenging over time, especially if the engine is not regularly serviced.

Limited space for repairs

The W-shaped engine configuration can make some components harder to access, complicating repairs and routine maintenance.
