Engine Burning Oil Problems of BMW 550

My 2016 BMW 550i xdrive m sport is using/burning one quart of oil every 750-800 miles, the odometer reads 36,343 miles, very low miles for this car to be using that much oil, I bought it in August of 2019 with 34,654 miles on it. You can see that I don't drive it that much, have never had the car on any kind of track. The BMW dealership in schererville indiana says this kind of oil consumption is normal. !!! there is no way this expensive luxury car should burn any kind of oil with this low of miles. I really want this complaint to be heard!! thank you.

Tl the contact owns a 2012 BMW 5501. While driving approximately 65 mph, the "service required soon" message illuminated on the message center and the vehicle stalled. The contact coasted the vehicle to the shoulder. The vehicle was towed to global imports (550 interstate north pkwy se, atlanta, GA 30339) where it was diagnosed that the engine seized and a new one was needed. The contact also stated that the vehicle was running oddly approximately a week before the failure, presumably due to oil consumption issues. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 49,479.

This vehicle when being used has excessive consumption of oil and oil leaks. This problem cause the engine, engine turbos, valve stems and seals and oil pan seals to go bad prior to normal vehicle engine/part life. There is currently a settled class action lawsuit that replaces the engine at a percentage based on miles on car at time of bad engine test. But I believe this is also a possible safety issue and should be treat more like a recall not a suit. You can view more information regarding this suit at https://bangclasssettlement. Com.

BMW n63 customer care package: a recall b001314 that BMW refuses to call a recall. Im having problum with the car burning oil every 200 miles had fuel injectors replace twice. Car stills runs bad. My car only has 84k on it and I have had so many problums out of it oil chance has always been on time.

The contact owns a 2011 BMW 550i. The contact stated that the vehicle experienced excessive oil consumption. The contact stated that the engine oil warning indicator illuminated every two weeks. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was repaired. The technician diagnosis was not provided. After the vehicle was repaired, the failure still recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Add oil light came on approximately every 4000-5000 miles starting at 5000 miles. Oil leaked onto garage floor. BMW dealership repeatedly claimed there was nothing wrong. Around 25,000 they told me that the manufacturer had issued a data sheet saying they were changing the maximum oil fill capacity. The dealer reset the oil sensor and added more oil. At approximately 30,000 miles the turbos failed and were replaced by the dealership under warranty. At 32,000 miles the vacuum pump failed and was replaced by the dealership under warranty. When the vacuum pump failed, the car had a horrendous burning oil smell and the brakes were very spongy. The dealership advised not to drive the car and it had to be towed. These failures and repairs could have been avoided if BMW had taken my complaints seriously about the oil problem and, in my opinion, engine defects at 5,000 miles when I first complained. BMW refuses to issue an extended warranty on the engine despite the fact that it has had two serious problems that started at 5000 miles.

Engine continues to burn through oil approximately every 1,500 miles, which could leave the vehicle stranded and inoperable. It's unacceptable in a brand new vehicle.
