Most common problems:

Brake system issues

Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) may experience occasional malfunctions, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Power loss

Engine performance might degrade over time, causing a reduction in horsepower from the initial 425 hp.

Engine misfire

The inline-6 cylinder engine can develop misfire issues, which may affect overall vehicle performance.

Turbocharger problems

Turbochargers in the BMW M4 can sometimes fail, leading to a significant drop in power and acceleration.

Cooling system failures

The engine's cooling system can develop leaks or blockages, potentially causing the engine to overheat.

Oil leaks

Common in BMW engines, oil leaks can occur from various seals and gaskets, leading to potential engine damage if not addressed.

Fuel system issues

Fuel injectors or fuel pumps might fail, causing poor fuel economy or engine stalling.

Electrical problems

Electrical components, such as sensors and control modules, may fail or produce erroneous readings.

Suspension wear

The sporty suspension system can wear out quicker than average, leading to a less comfortable ride and potential handling issues.

Transmission problems

The transmission may experience shifting issues or failure, affecting the driving experience and vehicle reliability.

Carbon buildup

Direct-injection engines like the one in the BMW M4 can develop carbon buildup on intake valves, affecting performance and fuel efficiency.
