Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- Adaptive LED Headlight MoistureSerious
The factory sealing beads on the front adaptive LED headlight assemblies can degrade, admitting rainwater and road spray. Condensation inside the lens shorts out the TMS driver modules positioned at the bottom of the housing.
- Soft Close Door ActuatorsModerate
The motorized pull-down latches for the optional soft-close doors can experience cable stretch or internal microswitch failure, causing the door to fail to cinch or bounce slightly open instead of latching.
- EGR Cooler LeakSerious
The twin-turbo N57 diesel engine in the popular 640d is subject to BMW UK recall campaigns for leaking exhaust gas recirculation coolers, which can create intake manifold thermal damage and fire risk.
