Most common problems:

Brake fade

Brake fade can occur due to overheating of the braking system, which may be more pronounced during extended use of Dynamic Brake Support (DBS).

Dbs malfunction

Issues with the sensors or control modules of the Dynamic Brake Support can lead to malfunction, affecting braking performance.

Turbocharger issues

The high-performance engine, especially with 382 hp, can experience turbocharger problems such as failure or lag.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines, like the one in the BMW M340i, are prone to carbon build-up on the intake valves, which can affect performance.

Cooling system problems

High-performance engines generate a lot of heat, and any issues with the cooling system can lead to overheating and potential engine damage.

Electrical issues

Modern BMWs, including the 2020 M340i, have complex electrical systems that can experience failures, affecting various vehicle functions.

Oil consumption

High-performance engines can consume more oil, leading to the need for frequent top-ups and potential for low oil levels if not monitored.

Transmission problems

The high torque and power can put stress on the transmission, leading to issues such as slipping, hard shifts, or failure.
