Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

The DBS system can sometimes fail to activate or engage properly, which can reduce braking efficiency during emergencies.

Engine misfires

Misfires can occur due to issues with ignition coils, spark plugs, or fuel injectors, leading to rough idling and reduced performance.

Turbocharger issues

Turbocharger failures or malfunctions can lead to a loss of power and increased exhaust smoke, especially in forced induction engines like the M276.

Oil leaks

Common around valve covers, oil pan, and other seals, leading to oil consumption and potential engine damage.

Timing chain problems

Stretching or failure of the timing chain can cause misalignment of engine timing, leading to poor performance or engine damage.

Cooling system failures

Problems with the radiator, water pump, or thermostat can lead to overheating and potential engine damage.

Fuel system issues

Problems with fuel pumps or injectors can lead to poor fuel delivery, affecting engine performance and efficiency.

Dfi (direct fuel injection) carbon buildup

Carbon deposits can form on intake valves and other components, leading to reduced engine efficiency and performance.
