Watch out

Faults owners and the press report, and how to spot each one.

• Oil use on the S58 All years

  One source so far

  Check: Ask how often the oil has needed topping up, and check the level.

  Euro Premium Parts says the S58 can use oil between services, especially when revved hard or tracked, and that more than a quart every 1,500 miles needs looking into. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• A ticking high-pressure fuel pump All years

  One source so far

  Check: Listen for ticking or rattling from the fuel pump at a cold start.

  Euro Premium Parts reports the noise on early cars, which BMW addressed with a software update in some markets, and a faint wastegate rattle at cold idle that is noise only. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• Boost leaks at the charge pipe couplings All years

  One source so far

  Check: Feel for lost power under boost and look for a check engine light.

  Euro Premium Parts says the couplings between the turbos and intercooler can leak after repeated hard use, usually between 15,000 and 40,000 miles. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• Leaking adaptive dampers All years

  One source so far

  Check: Look for oil on the dampers and an uneven ride height.

  Euro Premium Parts calls the adaptive M dampers a wear item that can leak between 30,000 and 60,000 miles, and costly to replace. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• Cracked carbon-ceramic brake rotors All years

  One source so far

  Check: On a car with carbon-ceramic brakes, have the rotors inspected closely for cracks.

  Euro Premium Parts says the rotors are sensitive to heat shock and poor bedding, and that cracks are not always visible without a close look. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• Worn front control arm bushings All years

  One source so far

  Check: Listen for clunks under braking and feel for imprecise steering.

  Euro Premium Parts says they wear fast on tracked or hard-driven cars, between 20,000 and 40,000 miles. A seller's guide (unofficial)

Owning

What owners and buyers say

• Sought after

  The M4 Competition All years

  One source so far

  Euro Premium Parts says the Competition strikes the best balance of performance and daily use, and that the manual base car is a big draw for enthusiasts. A seller's guide (unofficial)

• Watch for

  A car with hidden track use or missed oil changes All years

  Walk away One source so far

  Euro Premium Parts advises avoiding any car with undisclosed track history, signs of deferred oil changes or an amateur engine tune, and says early 2021 cars may still carry software faults. A seller's guide (unofficial)

Maintenance

• Engine oil and filter All years

  Replace every 5,000 miles, per a parts seller. Euro Premium Parts says every 5,000 to 6,000 miles for spirited use, rather than waiting for the car's reminder A seller's guide (unofficial)

  Ask the seller: Ask for oil change records.

• Automatic gearbox fluid All years

  Replace every 40,000 miles, per a parts seller. Euro Premium Parts says specialists advise every 40,000 to 50,000 miles, though BMW treats it as sealed A seller's guide (unofficial)
