Most common problems:

Oil leaks

Oil leaks can be common in older BMW models, including the 2013 M6, due to worn gaskets and seals.

Vanos system failure

The variable valve timing system (VANOS) in BMW engines can fail, leading to poor engine performance and rough idling.

Rod bearing wear

The high-performance engine in the M6 can suffer from rod bearing wear, which can lead to engine failure if not addressed.

Fuel injector issues

BMW engines, particularly high-performance ones, can experience fuel injector problems, leading to misfires and poor fuel economy.

Cooling system failures

BMWs are known for cooling system issues, including water pump and thermostat failures, which can cause the engine to overheat.

Turbocharger problems

If equipped with a turbocharger, the M6 might experience turbocharger issues, such as oil leaks or failure of the turbocharger itself.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines like the one in the M6 can suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves, affecting performance and fuel efficiency.

Timing chain problems

Timing chain wear or failure can be an issue in some BMW engines, leading to significant engine damage if not addressed.

Electrical issues

BMWs often have complex electrical systems that can suffer from issues such as faulty sensors or failing electronic control units (ECUs).
