  • My BMW 640d - Ownership Review | Back To The GARAGE! Part 2
    In this video, I will be taking my BMW 640d back to the garage as there are still a few more bits to do. Such as turbo issue, passenger seat fault and one of the LED lights not working. This is also an ownership review of the car, as I have owned this BMW 640d, for just over a year now and can give good feedback on its ownership and how it been in the last year.
    Hopefully this will be the last time I’ll be taking my BMW 640d, back to the garage!
    I hope you enjoy Part 2 of my BMW 640d ownership review and click below if you would like to watch part 1 of an honest ownership review.

    This and a Z4 are the only BMWs I would consider buying. I'll be buying a car around Christmas and my choices are a 640d or a E Class coupr/ convertible which is my choice. My friends a mechanic and he is been a BMW man since rhe 90's...he said that the merc is gonna give less problems

    Glad you got your pax seat sorted. That must've been a pain when you have pax at the back. No way you're spending 2.5k on a head lamp. If I know anyone, I'll let you know. Great update Bobby

      Yep fixing the pax seat was a relief! However as for the headlight, I’m screwed! 🤣 thanks for offering though 💪🏼

    I read on one of the 6post forums that a temporary fix for the headlight is to turn your headlights on manually as opposed to keeping it on auto headlight function. Worth a try

      That’s what I do , I don’t leave them on auto I turn them on manually and also helps store more power on the battery

      Thanks Humza and sorry for the late reply. I’ve tried this numerous times but it still goes off even in manual mode. But thanks for the tip though 👍🏼

    I’ve just bought a 2012 640d m sport ….. what a car ! It’s been remapped now pushing around 380bhp…..probably my favourite daily I’ve ever owned!

      Haha you’ve got a great car! I do a lot of motorway miles and it’s fantastic on the motorway! Thanks for watching 😊

    Very informative couple of videos you put together. I've been considering buying this car next, but a few potential known issues have been putting me off. 1. Apparently, this model has engine chain issues. It prematurely stretches, and it's in such an awkward place that it costs a fortune to replace. 2. EGR problems. It fouls up the DPF. I am wondering whether fitting an oil collector in between would help with this problem. 3. Potential electrical gremlins like you've experienced.
    I hope you you don't mind me asking, what the cost of your insurance was, your annual mileage and how much the car cost. I'm just trying to get a very rough idea of likely costs. I know there are a lot of other factors that might determine the cost.

    600 pounds seems fair. I have an F12 M6 and the most recent routine service with all new fluids plus a rear main diff seal cost me $1.5k

      Lovely! These 640d’s are weapons especially when they’re remapped. Congrats on your new car 🙌🏼

    Hi Bobby. What was the the fault with the camera. Mines same fault message but still works? Cheers.

    • @BobbyDrives
      @BobbyDrives  5 месяцев назад +2

      Hey, mine was the same. I had an error coming up but the rear camera would still work perfectly fine. I did a reset with the Carly adapter and that managed to get rid of it. It deleted any software related issues.
