2010 BMW 5 Series: what owners report

Water pumps fail on several petrol engines, on F10 cars often from about 100,000 km; US owners of the 2008 535i report water-pump failure at around 85,000 miles.2008–2017
On the 2010–2017 F10, inspectors flag springs, dampers and drive shafts more often than average once cars pass eight years, and both generations fail the emissions test too often.2010–2017
Timing chains that stretch or break are the best-known engine fault, on the N43 520i and N47 diesel from 2007 and the N20 petrol; US complaints on the 2012 528i also include a failed oil-pump drive chain around 81,000 miles.2007–2017
The N63 V8 in F10 cars, mainly up to 2013, burns oil through worn valve-stem seals and also suffers broken chain guides, faulty injectors and coolant loss.2010–2013
