Most common problems:

Oil leaks

BMW engines, especially older models like the 1995 M3, are known to develop oil leaks from various gaskets and seals.

Vanos issues

The Variable Valve Timing (VANOS) system can fail, leading to rough idling, loss of power, and poor fuel economy.

Cooling system problems

Radiators, water pumps, and thermostat failures are common, potentially leading to overheating.

Head gasket failure

The head gasket can fail, causing coolant to mix with oil and leading to engine overheating and potential severe damage.

Ignition coil failure

Faulty ignition coils can lead to misfires, rough running, and reduced performance.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

A bad sensor can cause the engine to stall or not start.

Intake manifold gasket leak

A leaking intake manifold gasket can cause rough idling and vacuum leaks.

Timing chain tensioner issues

A failing tensioner can cause the timing chain to become loose, leading to potential engine damage.

Fuel injector problems

Clogged or failing fuel injectors can lead to poor engine performance and fuel economy.
