High pressure fuel pump & vacuum lines tank 1 & 2 failures. Turbocharger & waste gate failure as well, fuel sending units developed hairline fractures that cause fuel to leak on exhaust manifold likely to case a fire was told not to drive car luckily the mechanic notice the leakage. No more need to to say, you guys are aware of this do some about it please! I never purchase a BMW ever again!.
Excessive soot and carbon build up in the intake manifold and intake valves of the 335d which is a diesel car. This causes rough idling, misfires, and loss of engine power. While merging onto a highway, the engine malfunctioned due to this problem and immediately lost power almost causing a collision. The vehicle has had this problem for more than 20k miles and continous trips to the dealer to diagnose. Finally, the dealer agreed it was carbon build up but that it is not covered. The repairs for this should be covered by BMW as it is emissions related and can cause significant engine problems. This has not been an issue on other diesel cars by other manufacturers.

While I was driving in a highway traffic, without any warning the car started vibrating severly, smoke coming out of the tailpipe, engine almost dying and I was forced to take the shoulder lane away from traffic. I tried to restart the engine but only white smoke with fuel smell coming out of tail pipe, but I was still able to drive the car slowly to home. Took to mechanic and eventually was told that engine is completely shot - 3 or 4 cylinders were cracked, combustion failure, etc. Mechanic can't fix it without replacing the entire engine which he estimated at least $7,000. 00. Geico won't cover since they considered my car issue strictly a "mechanical failure". BMW concord is unresponsive to my request. I'm on my own here and now I'm paying for the rental car for about 3 weeks now which geico doesn't fully or even partially cover due to the mechanical failure state of my car. I'm the original owner of the car and my usage is less than average. Driving it primarily to work (antioch,CA - concord, CA) and back home which is only approx 40 miles round trip. My driving habits are very good, car was never abused. I took good care of the car, had it serviced and maintained regulary. I've been working from home permanently for over a year now so my mileage usage is very low and geico knows about it as I provided proof of low mileage usage. I just don't understand why my BMW - a performance car and the ultimated driving machine - with low mileage, never abused, well maintained - could go this worse. Now the car sits in my garage dead, unfixable, untradeable. I'm so frustrated and very upset that this happened at a time when I'm extremely busy at work, and just adds to my stress level that I feel like I'm gonna get a heart attack from just dealing with this issue. Engine is dead in just 6-1/2 years. Unbelievable!.
Defective swirl flap actuator. Dealer replace intake manifold with swirl flap motor.

My BMW lost power on multiple occasions. It was in BMW service for 6 weeks discovered a problem with manifold "leaking oil and no power to twin turbo. Factory man could not find the cause. They had to tear down the engine finally after we were losing our patience to finally "find the problem". This was when the car was brand new. Have had multiple trips to BMW service for stalling and loss of power on the road. Have had to reset the"cars' "system again on 2 occasions. BMW did extend the service warrantly on the turbo and fuel pump. Tonight had complete power failure on highway. Had to stop and start and go several hundred feet. Car limped home into the garage. Im sure my trip to the BMW service station will be an exercise in futility since they tell me the car is fine. There must be some issue with the twin turbo engine.
