BMW - official known recalls
Hello Mates,
unfortunately I could not find anything suitable for my question with the search function. If I have overlooked something, please point it out to me and delete the thread. I am currently looking for a used F07 . In my search for the right used car, I obviously want to know all about the items that are critical to consider. If there has not been something like this before, perhaps we could create a list naming known issues and what to expect from BMW dealers when you go to them for goodwill even after warranty. So far I have been told or found the following info from various sources on the internet. To confirm this information, I am asking for your experiences. 1. cooler for exhaust gas recirculation defective: A defective EGR cooler can lead to an engine fire. Therefore, you can probably have the chassis number checked at a BMW dealer and get a new EGR cooler as a gesture of goodwill. 2. spillage during jerky steering: There are said to be some faulty, riveted screws/bolts in the steering gear, which in the end results in an unsightly noise, which can be checked by sitting in the car, leaving the door open and moving the steering wheel back and forth more. If you hear noises, you can apparently have the steering gear repaired by BMW as a gesture of goodwill. The second way to test this = get in, start the engine, jerky steering. If you hear an abnormal noise, the steering gear is defective and you can also have the steering gear repaired by BMW. 3. air bellows lose air: If you have a vehicle with air suspension on the rear axle and it is lower overnight on one side or on the entire rear axle than before parking, one or even both air bellows are defective. Here, too, there have been cases where BMW has replaced the bellows as a gesture of goodwill. 4. rear view camera - unclear image in the middle of the picture: Some rear view cameras are said to be leaking. Moisture enters the lens, settles in the center and "calcifies" the residue causing the image to become blurred. Here BMW should probably also replace the camera as a gesture of goodwill. 5. water ingress - rear passenger compartment: The rear passenger doors are said to be partially poorly finished, so that moisture can get into the vehicle interior. BMW offers a butyl tape that the end customer can use to thicken the door panel and thus avoid moisture problems. As mentioned, should it be dangerous half-knowledge on my part, please delete directly that's it from my side for now Greeting Martin |
