Most common problems:

Turbocharger failure

The BMW 335i (2011) is known for issues with its turbochargers, which can lead to reduced performance and increased exhaust smoke.

High-pressure fuel pump (hpfp) failure

The HPFP in the 335i can fail, causing stalling, long cranking times, and a check engine light.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines like the one in the 335i are prone to carbon buildup on the intake valves, leading to rough idling and poor fuel economy.

Water pump failure

The electric water pump can fail prematurely, causing the engine to overheat.

Oil filter housing gasket leak

The gasket can degrade over time, leading to oil leaks and potential engine damage if not addressed.

Ignition coil failure

Faulty ignition coils can cause misfires, leading to rough running and reduced power.

Valve cover gasket leak

The valve cover gasket can fail, causing oil leaks and potential engine misfires.
