2010 Bmw 535i gran turismo problems

bmw logo

The sixth generation of the BMW 5 Series consists of the BMW F10 (sedan version), F18 (long-wheelbase sedan), BMW F11 (wagon, marketed as Touring) and BMW F07 (fastback/hatchback, marketed as Gran Turismo) executive cars and were produced by BMW from January 2010 (for the 2011 model year) to 2017, with F10 being launched on 20 March 2010 to domestic market and F11 in the summer of 2010. The F07 Gran Turismo was produced from early September 2009 to 2017, being launched in the domestic German market in late October 2009.

The F10 5 Series shares a platform with the F01 7 Series full-size luxury sedan and the F12 6 Series executive-sized grand tourers. The F10 generation is the first 5 Series to offer a hybrid drivetrain, a turbocharged V8 engine, an 8-speed automatic transmission, a dual-clutch transmission (in the M5), active rear-wheel steering (called "Integral Active Steering"), electric power steering, double-wishbone front suspension, an LCD instrument cluster (called "Black Panel Display") and automatic parking (called "Parking Assistant"). A long-wheelbase sedan version (model code F18) was sold in China, Mexico, Turkey and the Middle East. Introduced in 2011, the M5 model is powered by the BMW S63 twin-turbocharged V8 engine coupled to a 7-speed dual clutch transmission. The Gran Turismo (F07) is the first and only 5 Series to be produced in a fastback body style with a hatchback truck opening.

In February 2017, the G30 5 Series was released as the successor to the F10. G32 6 Series Gran Turismo (based on the G30 platform) succeeded the F07.

Common 2010 Bmw 535i gran turismo problems

The BMW 535i Gran Turismo, introduced in 2010, has been reported to have several common problems by its owners. One of the most significant issues is related to the air suspension system

Another warning sign of an air suspension problem is a hissing sound, which indicates a leak in the air suspension system. If the car is leaning to one side, this could also be a sign of an issue with the air suspension. Performing a "bounce test" can help diagnose BMW 5 Series rear air suspension problems. To do this, push down on the bumper hard at one of the rear corners and observe if the corner pops back into place right away or if it rises slowly or bounces up and down.

Repairing the air suspension system at a BMW dealership can be quite expensive, with just one genuine BMW air strut costing more than $990 before tax. Replacing both rear air struts can quickly add up to over $2,000, not including labor or other required items. However, using aftermarket parts from third-party manufacturers can be a more cost-effective solution, although air suspension systems are complicated and may require professional installation.

Another common problem with the BMW 535i Gran Turismo is related to the electrical system. Several owners have reported issues with the electrics, including problems with the sat-nav, audio system, and electrical seats.

In summary, the BMW 535i Gran Turismo has several common problems, including issues with the air suspension system and electrical system. While these issues can be expensive to repair at a BMW dealership, using aftermarket parts and seeking professional installation can help reduce costs. Regular maintenance and checks can also help prevent these issues from occurring or worsening over time.
