2002 BMW 7 Series SE 3.5 petrol
Summary:
Horrible
Faults:
The gearbox is jerky.
VVC needed replacing.
iDrive failed and no music as it's all interconnected.
Rough idle sometimes, no codes, told it was normal to do this.
Park brake fail light on and off, plus sometimes I can't tell if the park brake is on, due to light no coming on.
General Comments:
This has to be the worst car I have ever purchased. A jerky drive around town, constant gearbox thumps and bangs, which is apparently very common with this junk.
Giving up on iDrive failures, so now drive without music, or sat nav.
The car idles rough some days, and fine on others; told it could be the petrol, as they like the most expensive brands.
Awful ride around town, very barge like, bouncy and awful.
Have driven only 500 miles since purchase, and I'm now to scared to drive it for fear of more problems arising.
An absolute heap of junk, that has to be the greatest money pit of all time.
I hate driving it, and I hate it with a passion.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
