Common Faults & Reliability

These are the most common documented problems for the Bentley Continental Flying Spur, sorted by their typical impact and frequency.

Rear Window Regulator Failure

low severity

The cables in the rear window lifting mechanism can snap, causing the glass to drop into the door.

Est. repair cost:£400–£700 per side

Secondary Air Injection Pump Failure

medium severity

The pumps for the emissions system can ingest moisture and fail, triggering a Check Engine Light.
