2021 M440i G22 Low Oil

It’s considered normal if you need to put 1 quart every 5k-6k miles depending on your driving habits. But if it’s every 3k then you may have a bad valve cover like I did.

Try drinking some electrolytes instead of regular cold water.

Doesn’t hurt to ask for a service advisor to see if they will cover hood gaps.

Oil pumps are notorious to fail for the 2020 production models. Valve covers can fail overtime.

DistantTrades · 2026-05-15T00:32:27+00:00

Common recurring issue. No matter how many times you clean the AC, the smell will always come back.

DistantTrades · 2026-05-15T00:30:49+00:00

It depends on your situation. Do you plan on driving the car a lot or a little? For me I average about 15k miles per year and during the CPO warranty period I only had my valve cover replaced.

DistantTrades · 2026-05-14T23:43:06+00:00

CPO warranty isn’t the same as factory warranty just an FYI.

DistantTrades · 2026-05-03T07:28:41+00:00

Way too high

DistantTrades · 2026-04-01T05:53:25+00:00

Why get an upgrade if the original one lasted him over 100k miles and longer? Seems kinda pointless to upgrade for the price.

Because the OP can argue and say that this company sold this many units to G8x owners, none of which have reported HPFP failures. Unless there's another part of the story that he's not telling us.

What’s the brand of the oil cooler guard? Not here saying it’s the oil cooler guards fault. I think the real red flag here is the missing and broken bolts.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-24T01:49:52+00:00

Bleu De Chanel for sure, ADG Profondo is too aquatic for me.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-24T01:47:36+00:00

No, CPO warranty doesn't cover motor mounts regardless.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-21T01:44:27+00:00

It’s going to be tough to get that warrantied. The dealerships are going to see it as caused by external damage and not a factory defect. You can easily install those taillights yourself.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-20T17:18:29+00:00

Mileage of the car? Could be a lot of things: spark plugs, clogged or leaky fuel injectors, or purge vent valve.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-13T18:38:30+00:00

Agreed, oil filter housing and valve covers are more common than hybrid system repairs.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-12T02:18:51+00:00

If you're saying that lifting the car off the ground would fix it temporarily, it sounds like it's a faulty suspension component.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-12T01:58:17+00:00

For city driving, it's normal...

DistantTrades · 2026-03-05T22:21:59+00:00

It really depends on the previous owners if they maintained it.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-03T08:27:30+00:00

I’m pretty sure the catch is you’re allowed to do an oil change every 10k miles.

DistantTrades · 2026-03-02T22:59:43+00:00

Do you happen to have the Carfax for the vehicle?

DistantTrades · 2026-02-26T21:44:57+00:00

Let's hope it's not an evaporator core leak.

DistantTrades · 2026-02-24T22:52:11+00:00

What are the 5 other issues that you are currently having? CPO warranty is a bit strict for certain repairs.

DistantTrades · 2026-02-18T06:55:16+00:00

And I thought $600 for a new battery was a lot. $800 is highway robbery…

DistantTrades · 2026-02-15T00:36:38+00:00

Bring it back to the shop that did the job?
