Problems you've had with the G20?

Original Poster

I'd appreciate it if only BMW G20 users commented: what kind of problems have you encountered so far?

I work in an industrial area Overall it just needs regular maintenance Compared to normal cars the brake pads wear out faster, but as long as you keep up with maintenance on time it's a really nice, trouble-free car Its only issue might be the steering rack, it comes up a lot because you have to watch out for it. Repairing it can run 30-40k.

The sunroof noise complaint is an annoying issue. I've driven 2 G20s, and my current car still has the problem too.

I had often heard that the water pump gets replaced between 70,000-100,000 km, I replaced mine at 69,500 km. Due to the pump's material there was a leak, it gets replaced as a complete unit. It costs around 15,000₺ on average at an independent shop, at the authorized dealer it probably comes to 25-30k.

I'd also heard that rear brake pads wear out quickly, probably a situation caused by the electronic parking brake actively using the brakes, or by using auto-hold too often.

There's a chronic rattling noise from the sunroof on G20s. I take very meticulous care of my car. But I have it too, I hadn't thought much about it, but from what I've seen in foreign sources, they say it can come from the sunroof guide rails.
