The Achilles heel of all the BMW; Reliability They haven t been a reliable car since the mid-1980s, I believe that BMW engineers in their cars barely scrape during the factory warranty period after which they care less what breaks and actually , as demonstrated repeatedly throughout the history of the brand, they often pass through some clunker that even book their own warranty claims this car breakdowns of the high pressure fuel pump HPFP infamous, so blatant that BMW was forced to extend the warranty of this part 10 years or 120k miles My car is in the third pump But wait, there's more other Turbos themselves, the latter of which put you time bombs built in the car are the fuel injectors piezo dainty, waste gate turbocharger and of course, back THOUSANDS if one of them goes and of course, water pumps electr ic lurk in the background too, waiting all the way to 65k miles before you strandings somewhere much as I love what the car is and what it can do, I can almost hear the tick noise -TAC g etting stronger everyday Although mine is a low 44 pristine miles 5k example, it is still nine years old model, out of warranty, and to approach the break points with each passing day Heck they did not even take a nice jump -start My battery was accidentally emptied while I was on vacation two weeks began jumping car exactly as instructed by the owner's manual, but in a few minutes thought he was overheating and put the car in soft mode Apparently, I had to close it after a few minutes, try not to drive for 30 minutes as I have done for years to leave the car recharge its battery no, no, no, you from vez let it run for fifteen minutes in the driveway of the close and restart if the multitude of on-board computers can successfully boot from their previous low voltage state, but nothing in the manual says Fussy little difficult, difficult car tragedy is that all this should be avoidable far in the 21 Centu ry Each car must be able to get to 100k miles without drama, and get to 250k miles with replacement of ordinary items used to be true of BMW more after that car, I'm not there s too very good cars now with much less manual shift who put up with the shenanigans of BMW, I'm thinking 2010-14 Acura TL SH-AWD 6 speeds get most of the cake, and learn to eat, even most overflow 2008 BMW 3 Series exam.
