I have a 13 which is a late 2012 production and the car has been solid with no issues. Pushing 680-690whp now.

Should be decent, considering BMW is still using it and has over the years increased the HP with basically just a tune (560-575-600), so I think they are fairly confident in S63/Tu's reliability.

This car is reliable from a BMW perspective, but by no means is it a Toyota/Lexus. Try to negotiate a warranty unless you have a friend that can help you out.

All_Motors power and all these guys with a good amount of mileage gives me the warm and fuzzys, plus the fact that BMW feels they can up the HP means that they trust it.

Unstable idle
My ex f10 M5 2012 DCT has some decent problem. Currently the BMW shop investigating the root and cause of problem.
Car has 44k km and of course no error code via ODB. - unstable idle. Engine shakes pretty well, you can even feel from the driver side. Unstable RPM during idle (not just cold start), needle moves up and down slightly - driver side of the engine/banks shake well, maybe misfiring? - on load, car seems to be not so stable BMW shop changed the 8 injectors, changed the spark plugs, tested another set of coils, but the unstable idle remains. Maybe vanos solenoids? Any idea? |
