  The Ultimate Disaster Machine! - 1998 BMW 7-Series
  By Lucian - January 30 - 1:51 am

  Looks can be deceiving! Lets see, purchased car at 58k, coolant sensor broke at 59K, tire alignmnet at 60K, fuel pump 61K, cat converter at 63K, sealant around windows at 63K all that in one yr. That yr i only put on the car 8k miles in hot weather! It has been nighmare after nightmare. Thanks BMW i hope ur happy in Stuttgart. Hire new engineers? That would be a good start.

  i lease this vehicle. which the price i pay each month, i think i should have bought a lexus or acura or infiniti. NOT BMW. i dont remember how many times ive taken the car to the dealer to fix it and almost everytime i need to leave the car there overnight. lots and lots of problem.. i cant believe BMWs top of the line luxury sedan is like this.. i just feel like im driving a kia with leather seat.. no more BMW for me..

  Dont buy a BMW over Lexus or others - 1998 BMW 7-Series
  By Big Money Waster - July 8 - 2:00 am

  Since the purchase I have been plagued with mechanical issues that just shouldnt happen in a flagship vehicle like this. Heres the list: - Door handle broke off in my hand. - AC system noises took 4 trips to eliminate (most components replaced) - Front suspension vibration took 3 visits to resolve (bushings worn out after only 22k miles!!) - Battery replacement (dealer wanted $250) - Engine gaskets leaking (not heads) - Power steering hose leaking (replaced) - Stereo is terrible - Loud AC noise from engine compartment - Check engine light comes on for no known reason Im selling this overpriced hunk of metal and going back to Lexus or Mercedes.

  1998 BMW 740i - 1998 BMW 7-Series
  By Jim T - June 24 - 2:00 am

  I have been very disappointed with this car. I used to drive a 328 i and absolutely loved it. Excellent performance and exceptional reliability. I assumed upgrading to a 740i would be a wise move. Was I ever wrong! Ive had this thing into the shop at least 4 different times in the past year. It also stranded my family hours from home after the water pump blew. Numerous electrical problems as well. Never EVER again will I buy a 7 series BMW .

  Looks nice, completey unreliable! - 1998 BMW 7-Series
  By Michael S. - June 6 - 2:00 am

  I leased a used, 1998 BMW740I. I felt confident that I would be protected by the manufacturers warranty. However I later learned that the warranties are tiered and started expiring months after I signed the lease. The car only had 19K miles, and Ive only put 12K on it. I am turning it in early becuase it has so many mechanical problems, mostly electircal, but it has also has overheated three times, leaving me stranded. I cant afford to miss any more work. This car is going to ruin my career. I want my Toyota back!
