- EGR Cooler LeakSerious
The N57 diesel engine in 30d, 40d, and M50d models is subject to safety recall campaigns regarding glycol coolant leaking into the EGR module, reacting with diesel soot to create thermal damage and fire risk.
- Air Suspension BagsModerate
The standard rear axle air suspension bellows develop micro-leaks along the lower fold as the rubber ages, causing the rear of the car to sag after standing and overworking the compressor.
- Front Wishbone BushesModerate
Due to the 2.1-tonne kerb weight and wide 20-inch or 21-inch front tyres, the hydraulic rubber bushes in the front lower tension struts tear and leak their silicone fluid on rough British roads.
