Common Problems with the
2025 BMW i4 (G26)

The 2025 BMW i4 (G26) has an excellent reliability record with no widely reported common faults for this model year period.

Buying Tips for the 2025 BMW i4 (G26)

✓Test the curved iDrive display for lag or freezing, and ensure the latest OTA software updates have been applied.
✓Verify the real-world range; the M50 model is incredibly fast but sacrifices significant range compared to the more sensible eDrive40.
✓Inspect the charging port to ensure the locking pin works correctly; a jammed pin will prevent the car from releasing the charging cable.
✓Check the condition of the rear tyres, as the massive instant torque (especially on the M50) wears them out very quickly.
✓Listen for any knocking from the rear air suspension (standard on the i4 to handle the battery weight) over speed bumps.
✓Ensure the artificial 'IconicSounds' generator works correctly when accelerating in Sport mode, though it can be turned off in the menus.
