Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2017 model year cars.
- Transfer Case Failure (xDrive)Serious
The transfer case wears quickly if tyre circumferences differ or the fluid is never changed, leading to expensive judder and shunt under acceleration.
- Rear Coil Spring SnappingModerate
The X3 weight and UK road conditions make rear springs a regular wear point, sometimes only noticed when the MOT tester spots a broken bottom coil.
- Steering Rack RattleModerate
The electronic steering rack can develop the same clunk and vagueness seen on F30-based BMWs, especially on cars with larger wheels.
