Most common problems:

Oil leaks

BMW M2 engines, especially those from earlier model years like 2016, are prone to developing oil leaks due to gasket or seal failures.

High-pressure fuel pump failure

The high-pressure fuel pump in BMW M2 engines can fail, leading to poor engine performance and difficulty starting.

Turbocharger issues

The turbocharger in the BMW M2 can develop problems such as wastegate rattle or complete failure, leading to a loss of power and increased exhaust emissions.

Carbon buildup

Direct-injection engines like the one in the BMW M2 are susceptible to carbon buildup on the intake valves, which can affect performance and fuel efficiency.

Cooling system problems

The cooling system, including the water pump and thermostat, can fail, leading to overheating issues in the BMW M2.

Vanos solenoid failure

The variable valve timing system (Vanos) solenoids can fail, causing rough idling, poor performance, and engine warning lights.

Rod bearing wear

The BMW M2 engine can suffer from accelerated rod bearing wear, leading to knocking noises and potential engine failure if not addressed.

Ignition coil failure

The ignition coils in the BMW M2 can fail, causing misfires, rough idling, and a check engine light.
