2000 Bmw 328ic problems

bmw logo

The third generation of the BMW 3 Series range of compact executive cars is designated under the model code E36, and was produced by the German automaker BMW from 1990 to 2000. The initial models were of the four-door sedan body style, followed by the coupé, convertible, wagon ("Touring"), and eventually hatchback ("Compact").

The E36 was the first 3 Series to be offered in a hatchback body style. It was also the first 3 Series to be available with a six-speed manual transmission (in the 1996 M3), a five-speed automatic transmission, and a four-cylinder diesel engine. The multi-link rear suspension was also a significant upgrade as compared to the previous generations of the 3 Series. All-wheel drive was not available for the E36, unlike the previous (E30) and successive (E46) generations.

The E36 was named in Car and Driver magazine's 10Best list for every year it was on sale.

Following the introduction of its successor, the E46 3 Series in 1998, the E36 began to be phased out and was eventually replaced in 1999.

Common 2000 Bmw 328ic problems

The BMW 328Ci 2000 is a popular luxury car, but like any vehicle, it can experience problems over time. Here are some of the most common issues reported by owners of this car:

  1. Suspension and Steering System: The BMW 328Ci 2000 is known for its precise handling, but some owners have reported issues with the suspension and steering system. These problems can include worn-out bushings, cracked rear axle carrier panels, and weak front axle points. These issues can lead to a rough ride, reduced handling performance, and even complete failure of the suspension or steering system.
  2. Cooling System: The cooling system in the BMW 328Ci 2000 is made of plastic, which can crack and leak over time. This can lead to overheating, which can cause serious damage to the engine. Additionally, the evaporator in the air conditioning system can leak frequently, and the fan clutches and expansion tank can also crack and leak. These issues can be expensive and difficult to repair, especially if not caught early.
  3. Electrical System: Some owners of the BMW 328Ci 2000 have reported issues with the electrical system, including faulty headlights and turn signals. These problems can be caused by corroded terminals or a malfunctioning light control module. In some cases, software updates may be required to fix these issues.
  4. Engine and Powertrain: Some owners have reported issues with the engine and powertrain in the BMW 328Ci 2000. These problems can include failed fuel pumps, blocked fuel filters, and faulty mass air flow sensors. These issues can lead to reduced performance, poor fuel economy, and even complete engine failure.
  5. Maintenance and Repairs: The BMW 328Ci 2000 is known for having a high cost of ownership, largely due to the cost of repairs. Regular maintenance is essential to keep the car running smoothly, but even with regular maintenance, repairs can be expensive.

In summary, the BMW 328Ci 2000 is a popular luxury car, but like any vehicle, it can experience problems over time. Common issues include suspension and steering system problems, cooling system failures, electrical system malfunctions, engine and powertrain issues, and high maintenance and repair costs. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can help keep the car running smoothly, but owners should be prepared for the possibility of expensive repairs.

STRUCTURE PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2007-01-25
  • VIN: WBABM5343YJ
  • Components: STRUCTURE
  • Summary: BACK IN JUNE 2006, I TOOK MY 2000 BMW 332CI TO BMW OF SAN DIEGO IN CALIFORNIA FOR THE SQUEAKING NOISE COMING FROM REAR AREA OF MY CAR WHILE DRIVING. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE SO NOTHING WAS DONE AT THAT TIME. NOW I TOOK MY CAR TO A REGULAR CHECK UP AT THE SAME BMW OF SAN DIEGO, AND THEY ARE NOW TELLING ME THAT REAR SUBFRAME IS TORN AND IT IS SAFETY HAZARD SO THEY THINK I SHOULD NOT DRIVE MY CAR AT ALL UNTIL I GET A REPAIR DONE AT LOCAL BODY SHOP. THEY THINK I SHOULD TOW THE CAR THERE. I THEN NOTICED THAT THERE ARE ABOUT 40 OTHER COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA SITE ABOUT THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM I AM HAVING. I LEARNED THROUGH ONLINE FORUM THAT THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM HAS BEEN RECALLED BY BMW GERMANY IN GERMAN A FEW YEARS BACK. I ALSO LEARNED THAT BMW OF NORTH AMERICA HAS PAID TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ON FOR SOME CUSTOMERS EVEN IF THEY ARE ALREADY OUT OF WARRANTY JUST LIKE MYSELF. CURRENTLY I AM WAITING FOR BMW OF NORTH AMERICA REPRESENTATIVE TO VISIT THE BMW OF SAN DIEGO TO TAKE A LOOK AT MY VEHICLE. SINCE THE BMW OF SAN DIEGO RECOMMENDED THAT I DO NOT DRIVE MY CAR WITHOUT GETTING THE PROBLEM FIXED, I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING THEIR LOANER CAR. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALER RIGHT NOW.

STRUCTURE PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2006-10-26
  • Components: STRUCTURE
  • Summary: MY 2000 328CI BMW 5 SPD. THE SUBFRAME BEGAN TO TEAR IN 2004. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS BUT I'VE NOTICED VARIOUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A DEFECT AND COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING. *NM
2006-08-31

STRUCTURE PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2006-08-16
  • VIN: WBABM5340YJ
  • Components: STRUCTURE
  • Summary: THE REAR SUBFRAME MOUNT IN MY 2000 328CI HAS A SIGNIFICANT FATIGUE CRACK AT THE SUBFRAME MOUNT WITHIN THE REAR AXLE SUPPORT. THIS PART, BMW #41117000246, FAILS DUE TO FATIGUE CRACKS FORMING IN THE SHEET METAL AT THE PERIPHERY OF THE SPOT WELDS OF THE SUBFRAME MOUNT TO THE BODY OF THE CAR. THE CRACK WAS OBSERVED DURING A REGULAR INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND MORE COMMON FAILURE THAN THE NUMBERS REPORTED TO NHTSA. ONE ENTHUSIASTS SITE HAS A LIST WITH 120 1999 AND 2000 E46 CARS WITH THIS FAILURE. THE CRACK IN MY CAR WAS OBSERVED BECAUSE I KNEW TO LOOK FOR IT. OTHERS HAVE NO IDEA THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN. THERE WAS NO PRIOR ACCIDENT OR EVENT THAT WOULD MAKE ONE SUSPECT SUCH A FAILURE. I ONLY KNEW BECAUSE A FELLOW BMW CAR CLUB MEMBER WARNED ME TO LOOK. THE CONSEQUENCES IS THAT THE REAR DRIVETRAIN AND SUSPENSION ARE SEPARATING FROM THE BODY OF THE CAR. AFTER THE FIRST SUBFRAME MOUNTING POINT FAILS (VIRTUALLY ALWAYS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR) THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR FAILS. IF SOMEONE FAILS TO FEEL THE WOBBLY FEEL TO THE DRIVETRAIN AND SUSPENSION THE FRONT TWO MOUNTS (4 TOTAL IN THE BACK) WILL PROCEED TO RIP OUT. NEXT THE UPPER SHOCK MOUNTS FAIL. AT THIS POINT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE CAR AND SUSPENSION/DRIVETRAIN IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE ARE FIXES FOR THIS BUT THEY INVOLVE REMOVING THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE SUPPORT WHICH IS A VERY INVOLVED PROCESS AND COSTS > $4000. BMW CHANGED THIS DESIGN IN 2001, BUT HAS DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS THE E46 CARS PRODUCED BEFORE THEN. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND COULD BE ADDRESSED FOR SIGNIFICANTLY LESS MONEY IF DONE BEFORE CRACKING STARTS. BMWAG REPAIRED OR REINFORCED ALL E46 CARS PRODUCED PRIOR TO FEBRUARY 2000, BUT BMWNA REFUSES TO. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS THIS IS NOT RIGHT. *JB

BMW INSISTS THERE IS NO FLAW, BUT BMW FORUMS HIGHLIGHT THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. A FAILED $4 PART COSTS OVER $1000 TO REPAIR AND IS A TRAFFIC HAZARD AS MANY PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THE SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION AS THE SHIFTER CAN STICK OR BIND IN NEUTRAL OR 5TH GEAR AND MUST BE FORCED INTO THE CORRECT GEAR, PROHIBITING PEOPLE FROM EXERCISING THE EXTREME CAUTION AND DEDICATION THAT DRIVING REQUIRES. *NM
