Folks, BMWs are truly exceptional cars. The higher the range model (say 7-series), the more expensive it is to fix. I had a 2000 328i from 1999-2015, when it was totaled by someone who hit me. I did nearly 263,000 miles and still had the original clutch. I got good at doing my own brakes and other maintenance. That made it cheaper. But in 263,000 miles, I was never stranded. I loved that car. I now have a 2011 750i MSport. I love it. It's expensive to fix...like really expensive. But, it's something you know when you buy it. they are reliable (thankfully)...and, frankly, they just look great. The 750i drives like it's stolen...so damn fast, it'll blow your mind.

I have a 2003 745i e65 with the n62. Best car I've ever owned! Smooth, silent, and 0-60mph in exactly 6.0secs! I've had it for three years and first thing I did was have all oil and transmission seals changed plus a new head gasket. It has used 1ltr of oil in 3 years! Change the oils every 7k if normal oil or every 12k if longlife and you will have very few problems. Absolutely beautiful luxury ride!

[@DaytonCarCare]

A friend had an 02 745i model with nothing but issues. Valve stem seals leaked after parked for a while, so smoked after starting. Park brake motor broke so needed to be manually released. Also all kinds of lights would come on in the dash for stability and traction control, the list went on.

[@louislau8340]

Have the 2003 745i Pulled engine . Secondary pump not working Carbon buildup was choking it Had to pull engine Finally passed smog Runs like a dream Old cars need attention Find a great reasonable mechanic That’s what I found first b4 the car Love this car Rnjou

[@4-matic212]

No way, did you pass smog ? How did you fix secondary air carbon build up ? And did you have the catalytic converter problem ?

[@bigal2012745]

Don't forget about the coolant pipe issue that runs from the front to rear of the block. Tell tell sign will be coolant from the weep hole by the water pump. I fixed mine with the telescopic coolant pipe right there in my driveway. The aftermarket pipe helps avoid having to remove the front timing cover and cuts down the job significantly. I'm at 190k miles on my '03 745Li and had it since ~30k miles. spent some money in parts but the labor was ~$500 as I did all my work. Had to pay to get some programming as some parts do require the dealership/BMW software. Own 2 others and also do my own work on a 330i and X5. Fun cars to drive and definitely helps if you can turn your own wrench.

[@jarellwill8885]

Did u have misfiring problems after changing out the coolant pipe? I had someone do my 745li and now it misfires and doesn't want to seem to stay on running wise

My 745li is running hot with new thermostat and new oolant sensor..what should I try the head gasket isn’t blown I used a dye test to confirm...there’s to much pressure in my cooling system that it cracked 2 reservoirs.

[@DjDestinyChicago]

There’s nothing in the video stopping me from buying one of these. I can do all the repairs myself, so that helps. You forgot the timing chain guides that the 4.4 is notorious for.

[@yotiep.1072]

I still have mines,the problem is the transmission failsafe keep coming on..and I use to have to cut car off and crank it again and would go away..but then I get worse like when it come on,I cut car off and try to cut on again,car wouldn't come on..but when it finally cranks,the transmission failsafe light come back on..it's like it didn't want me to reset it..but Im believing my computersmay have got wet or something..idk..smh

Thank you so much for all the useful information! You really know your bmw it really helped ! My car keeps saying accelerate slowly transmission failsafe drive moderately and the emergency break always says it’s on and it smells funny like my breaks are burning. Today it said I need new back breaks and I just replaced them 2 months ago any advice? Also they said they cut the emergency break like me so it should not give me problem because I couldn’t afford to fix it . Thank you in advance for any advice you can give me

[@franciscoamayaYT]

On the transmission fail safe mode, that could be a oil pressure failure, you can replace the transmission fluid and the filter and that could fix the problem. The brake smell can be caused by a inappropriate brake pad quality or the caliper is not lubricated (the caliper pins are stuck) or defective brake caliper

[@tiffanylong2441]

Thank you so much I will try that and let you know if it was the problem. Also how do you update the computer in car? Or use the phone ? So great full appreciate your help

I have an 06 and an 07 BMW 750Li - Both seem to have problems with NO start - I will have dash lights but no crank. I'm told to check the ground straps. The problem is I'm getting different locations and amount of straps. We found one on right front near starter but looks fine. Do you have know any other locations or maybe a video on this issue.

[@Patriot407]

So pretty much everything is failure on this 7 series. Well here’s the thing I’ve own this 7 series for almost 6 years and the only things that I fix was alternator bracket seal and that’s it the car overall was amazing no big issues. But some people own these cars and they don’t take care of them and once they breakdown then they’re start crying because these big luxury cars made for people how to know to take care of it properly and that’s the key factor.

[@themfactor5629]

What do you know about the Oil level sensor malfunction light? My '08 750li has this problem. I checked the oil and it was fine. I replaced the oil level sensor and it showed correctly the first time I started the car after replacement. The next time I started the car and drove it it ran fine. But when I shut it off I got the same message "Oil Level Sensor Malfunction". I changed the Oil pressure sensor. I read somewhere that the problem could be the alternator. Mine had been replaced before I got it. So, I bought a new one and I still get the same warning light. I've reset the oil service light and it was fine for one drive then it came back again. Any help would be appreciated.

I live in VietNam South East Asian country , the traffic here is quite slow so most the time i drive with speed under 30 miles/hour. This issue only happen after i start the engine and drive for 10-15 minus, and it mostly happen when i start driving uphill and slowly accelerate from around 25 miles/ h to 35 miles/h and that is when the car start a series of vibration/ shaking that i feel like it come from under/below the car. The vibration/shaking come in waves, it vibrating for like 2 seconds and then stop for like 0.5 sec and then vibrate again 2 secs and repeat few times. When i almost reach the top of the hill , it stop. I really confuse about this and its been happening for years and no mechanic in my city can actually figured out the issue correctly.

You need to have a scan tool to check the reason why the transmission Fail-Safe mode is active, it could be a bad solenoid or a bad transmmision fluid.

[@franciscoamayaYT]

Based on my experience with this problem. I drove my BMW X5 E53 and I parked in the garage and the next day I started the engine and the transmission Fail-Safe mode came on, the solenoid No. 4 was broken and I replaced them all. After that the transmission is running with not problems. If the problem is active, you can still drive your car only in third gear and reverse.

Theese cars price abaut 5-10.000€ and theese problems are very normal

[@franciscoamayaYT]

The valve stem seals problem is very common, the other problems are common but not all BMWs have them.

[@paperandmedals8316]

Horrible leap for the 7 series from the E38. Many feel the E38, especially the 750, was the finest car BMW ever built. The generation afterwards are just money pits. So are E38’s, but not as bad.

[@mrboom303]

That BMW is a lemon

[@tiffanylong2441]

Forgot to mention I have the 2002 bmw 745i

[@yongminwon3133]

Do yourself a favor and get the older E38 7 series BMW. A lot less issues then these.

[@Ned_Slanders]

DaytonCarCare and significantly less luxurious.

[@DaytonCarCare]

@@Ned_Slanders I've owned three, plenty comfortable.

Dammm makes.me.qanna just throw the whole car away

[@ericgraham2810]

I am having problems with my 2002 bmw 745i I try to put n drive are reverse the light go back to park do anyone knows what wrong with my car

[@franciscoamayaYT]

Do you have any codes related to the problem?

[@franciscoamayaYT]

You need a diagnostic tool to pull the codes. I believe that the transmission fluid is weak and the filter is bad, replace them. Also, it is possible that your transmission valve body seals and leaking internally. It is possible that you will need to replace them too.

[@ericgraham2810]

Francisco Amaya ok I try that thanks

[@jessali18nadeau30]

miss oil in transmission

Jake Conn the secret is to run em on ethanol

[@danield.7359]

this just turned me off considering a used BMW

[@DjDestinyChicago]

Daniel D. This is all very easy to fix. The valve seals are simple. There’s 36 of them, but very doable with the proper tools.

[@piratecustom6029]

@@DjDestinyChicago 36 seals? Are u really sure that it is not "only" 32?

[@CascadeSlim0119]

DjDestinyChicago a valve stem job is not an easy fix if it was people wouldn’t be selling them due to this problem and shops wouldn’t be charging $2k and up to do them....

[@hiphopmusicallday100]

Im getting a mercedes benz s class 2002 .

[@danield.7359]

I'd recommend a 2003 and up, the face lifted one. Less electronics and corrosion problems. You can recognize the face lifted model easily as the rear lights are red/white striped.

[@edwardmcdowell4581]

Thats no better

The is the Mercedes 1996 S320.. Guaranteed to last 50 years

Only in a bmw will a alternator bracket leek oil..let's get the Germans back on these cars

[@tasanjan]

I have oil leak from alternator bracket on my 2005 745i, the dealer ask $3000 to fix it.

[@MegaDee911]

Such an expensive car, with all kinds of cheap parts!!

[@heeaach]

so as a conclusion; these cars are POS??

[@felipeserrano8528]

I think BMW hates you by now, cause right after your video ended there was a BMW commercial promoting their 2002 and up

[@volvoman1096]

What a piece of shit! Unbelievable that BMW would sell something like that.

[@clkbmw]

Disaster and disease and BMW Germany should take back and destroy model 2002/~2008

In Other words, BMW is expensive and shit, hard and stupid to work with, Like disposable, That's why I tell costumers to stick with the Japanese cars
