bmw logo

The BMW 7 Series is a full-size luxury sedan manufactured and marketed by the German automaker BMW since 1977. It is the successor to the BMW E3 "New Six" sedan and is now in its seventh generation.

The 7 Series is BMW's flagship car and is only available in a sedan bodystyle (including long wheelbase and limousine models). It traditionally introduces technologies and exterior design themes before other models in BMW's lineup.

The first generation of the 7 Series was powered by straight-6 petrol engines, and following generations have been powered by inline-4, straight-6, V8 and V12 engines with both natural aspiration and turbocharging. Since 1995, diesel engines have been optional in the 7 Series.

Unlike the 3 Series and 5 Series sedans, BMW does not offer a full M model, but once offered an M performance variant, the BMW M760 with its 6.6L V12 (at the time the most powerful BMW ever made, not to be confused with BMW 760 6.6 V12 which does not offer the same performance). The Alpina B7 (G12) served as the high-performance variant of the 7 Series.

Common 1992 Bmw 735 problems

The BMW 735i, produced between 1977 and 1986, is known for several common problems, primarily related to its engine and cooling system.

  • Cooling System Issues: The early model years of the BMW 735i, particularly between 1977 and 1979, were known for their issues with the cooling system. The aluminum radiators were prone to cracking, and the plastic thermostat housing was known to fail, causing coolant leaks. The water pump was also a weak point, and failure could lead to overheating and engine damage.

These issues, while common, do not necessarily detract from the overall enjoyment and reliability of the BMW 735i. With proper care and attention, these problems can be mitigated, and the car can continue to provide years of enjoyment and satisfaction.
