Perhaps the most infamous BMW that should be avoided is the X3 model, a compact SUV. The years to avoid when it comes to the X3 are 2013, 2015, and 2020, and these automobiles share many of the same problems as the X5 because of shared parts. These may include oil leaks (a common issue with used BMWs), water leaking from the sunroof, timing chain guide failure, broken regulators, and overheating from the radiator. According to WithClutch, owners of the X3 can expect an annual maintenance cost of around $1,034, and the website gives the X3 a reliability rating of 50.3 out of 100.
Beyond the reliability rating, the X3 typically experiences a major repair, that is, one that costs more than $1000, around 2.52 times over three years — way above the industrial average, around 1.3 times.
