Starter Problems of BMW 335

I bought a 2009 BMW 335i off of a friend of mine knowing that the car did indeed have few issues back in December of 2019. When I had received the car the back left strut was out. I replaced all of them including the brakes as well as preformed a simple service. I took the car in for a diagnosis for the car not wanting to start properly to BMW for a proper check up. I legit get two starts before having to let it sit for a while before I can start it again. This has been an ongoing issue after what I thought could possibly be a starter issue. But it wasnt, the car doesnt crank; it clicks almost as if it wants to turn over and run as a self sustaining mechanism. Instead I must let it sit for a couple hours until I can yet again start it back up and its fine. This car has made me sit and wait countless times at friends houses and public places. BMW told me that it is the positive battery terminal and cable from the start port that needs to be replaced due to corrosion. They sent me a full inspection summary as a video for me to see and yes that red cable doesnt look to good behind the wheel well leading to the battery. Of course I did my research and found many other BMW's alike have the same exact issues. I dont want to have to pay out of pocket $3000 for a piece of hardware that is bond to decay. Thats a huge obligation for myself and a large safety issue for many others. This is my daily and I dont want to risk anything upon myself or anyone else that may own this same model and or have the same issue again. This needs to be fixed and addressed immediately. The date for when it occurred is the date BMW sent an inspection video back for myself to view.

In 2017 my son was driving on the interstate 91 highway when his front driver tire rod broke off. Bolts were missing both driver and passenger sides. Tires went out and it could have caused a tragedy this happened on a Friday night. We paid to have the wheels and tires repaired and replaced. I provide the receipts to the BMW dealer ship but they were never honored or reimbursed. We paid to have waterpump replacement because. In July 2017 the air conditioning was blowing hot air. In Nov. 2017 the heating system was blowing cold air. Feb 2018 blower was still not working, when I found out that there were (recalls). We waited almost 4 months for recalled blower was replaced, we paid for themostrate replacement but still had no heat. Car won't start. So we paid for the battery to be tested and registered. Shortly after the car started leaking coolant again April 2018. Defected water pump. April 2018 electric system. I drove the car to BMW dealerships, for fuel leakage now the dealership service dept. Is telling me that the car won't start!!! and that the starter needs replaced. We have not had any previous issues with the starter. And I have already spent nearly $4,000. 00 within the past 5 months for things that I believe I should not have. Please investigate. In November 2017 the car was overheating.

BMW 335i 2007 has (x3)three times now, the vehicle was traveling during the daylight hours at highways speeds of 65-70mph in the number 1 far left lane of (CA 101 fwy) in may of 2016 when the vehicle displayed ¿engine temperature was high, and that the car needed to be driven at a moderate speed¿. Immediately took my foot off the accelerator and began to coast in idle state to the shoulder (CA 101 fwy) 5 lanes over. Before I was able to move to the 3rd lane the vehicle stated ¿engine to hot¿, turned off, lost power (much like if you run out of gas), and I frightfully merged creeping along to the shoulder narrowly missed being hit by several other trucks and vehicles. I went to lift the hood, expecting to be overwhelmed by heat and conditions that would cause a BMW to disable suddenly and lose power. I observed no conditions of heat or unusual to cause a shut down. I was able to turn car on again in 10 minutes with no problems the temperature was no different or warmer than I have ever felt before, conditions were 72/*f, traffic was moving along at a good flow, with light cool bay area breeze. This has occurred 3times now, I have filled the coolant, I have had the starter and battery replaced and yet the same occurrence comes up. . Read more...
