Only maintenance was abs done under BMW warranty renewed annually for about £500. Drive one and then decide. Yes, the 2012-13 models with the N55 engine is a bit more reliable than the pre 2010 models with the N54 engine, but stuff can still go wrong. Edit: At the poster who said 1k every 80k: You must have gotten really lucky. There are so many things that can go wrong with a BMW, way more than just the HPFP issue.
Best F30 suspension upgrade options. My car has ~38K miles and it is so wobbly and bouncy on the freeway. I got my suspension and alignment checked and all are within spec. I'm running the right pressure as well. I am thinking that its just the F30 suspension that is terrible on the freeway and as the tires wear out the ride gets worse and worse.
Ive had both my passenger and driver side replaced under warranty. this has happened to me on my e46, e90, and now my f30. its a known issue and the actuator needs to be replaced to fix it. My e90 had it replaced under CPO and all i paid was the $50 deductible. I would assume the F30 has it covered under CPO as well. _____ The F30 uses 2 horns. A low and high pitched one. The low frequency horn has a tendency to get moisture in it and break, leaving only the Mickey Mouse one. Happened to me as well after a year or 2. The dealer swapped it out without any questions and it's been fine ever since.
LCI f30 vs Pre-LCI. Everytime I take my 2014 335i into the dealer I get a 330i loaner, and I can’t help but notice how much nicer this car rides, at least in my opinion. Maybe it’s because the loaners are new or almost new, but the ride is so much quieter and smoother, the transmission shifts so much smoother.

Looking closer at the reliability data from CR, MY 2014 4-Series has a higher than average incidence of problems with fuel system, suspension/steering, paint/trim, body hardware, and power equipment. These contributed to the low reliability rating overall for 2014 4-Series.

iTrader: ( 0) You shouldnt be crashing HPFP on pump gas with only 17-18 psi of boost. The fact that the car stalled afterwards as well is another clue it was more than just the HPFP not being able to keep up with your boost level / fuel demand. You either have a LPFP issue (most likely) or a HPFP issue (less likely since its mechanical). Originally Posted by rak299. I don't have a disassembly manual for that transmission, but I think vibration in the shifter means the problem is more likely to be needle bearings in the main shaft (top shaft is split). That can be caused by an incorrect preload when the rear seal is pressed in. Drives: 2015 BMW 328i Xdrive Msport. Join Date: Oct 2018.

I was slow to share because I wanted to put some miles on it (1000 in) to make sure no problems arose. But so far it's been great! Thanks! I've driven another N55 for 100,000 miles with NO problems, just routine oil changes and that's it so I have faith in the N55s but I just don't know if this 335i has been tuned or had anything that could compromise long term reliability.

The climate control is set to 84, center dial is set to red, vehicle does not overheat, coolant was flushed 10,000 miles ago by Bmw dealer.

About to pull the trigger on an F30 M Sport with a 6 speed manual trans. Pristine car besides the 1st to 2nd and 3rd to 2nd grind. It was cringe worthy and turned me off immediately.
Adaptive M suspension problem. Hello, I have BMW 4 F36 with adaptive M suspension. Last week I was at my dealership performing regular oil change in my car and they also updated software with the new version. After this update my car is firmer and actually there is basically only slight difference between Comfort and Sport suspension settings. KDkA.
