Reliability Overview

average

The 2017 BMW 3 Series is generally enjoyable and durable when maintained, but cooling-system, oil-leak, turbo, and electronic repairs can be expensive as mileage increases. Diesel models should receive particular attention to the EGR cooler recall, while all vehicles should be checked by VIN for open or completed campaigns.

Open Recalls (1)

Engine and Engine Cooling: Exhaust Gas Recirculation

Certain diesel-powered 2017 BMW 328d and 328d xDrive vehicles may have an EGR cooler that leaks internally, allowing coolant to mix with soot and potentially cause smoldering particles or melting of the intake manifold.
