Common Problems: ROLLS ROYCE WRAITH
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Air Suspension Strut and Compressor Wear(Serious)
The Wraith is heavy and relies on air suspension for its trademark ride quality. Ageing struts or a tired compressor can leave the car sitting low or riding far more harshly than it should.
- V12 Engine Oil and Coolant Seepage(Moderate)
Derived from BMW architecture, the N74 V12 can develop leaks from turbo oil feed lines and the main cooling radiator or expansion tank as seals age.
- Battery Voltage and Control Module Faults(Moderate)
Like other modern Rolls-Royces, the Wraith is highly sensitive to low voltage. Cars that sit unused can produce multiple warning messages or strange behaviour until the battery issue is corrected.
