ok i've searched and searched and there are tons of topics.. i just wanna know what are ALL the problems ppl are having with the new evoX??

 

Notchy 2nd-3rd gear shifts

Rough idle/stalling

Rough powerband above ~5000 rpms

Rock chipping on side skirts

Tint getting scratched (only a handful of people with this problem)

Car payments being too high...

 

There may be some improvements. bought mine at the end of April and have had no issues with chiping (although I did get the X-pel anyway), no issues with running rough that I have noticed but have had the factory reflash, and the have no issued with the gearbox.

The only complaint I have is the ride height (coils go on next week) and fuel milage (likely fixed with Eutek flash).

 

I ll add...

cheaply made recaros

gas pedal broken off

brake dust (minor problem)

Edit: Both rough idling and rough rpm above 5000 rpm should be fixed with the latest reflash.

 

Sounds like a $14K car...

 

Well duh it is...



With $16k worth of powertrain and suspension work done to it, with warranty too boot.

 

Ya because BMWs don't have any problems from the factory ...

 

so u thinking that the first batches of evoX had alot of these problems but ppl buying fresh banches of evoX arent having any problems(well except the seats)..

so am i correct..

 

hahaha , yeah -- my buddy has taken his to the dealer like 12 times for all sorts of issues - 65k car - that must suck ..

My X has one problem , it just keeps making more power

 

hahaha. great job!

 

anything else ppl have to add?

 

The bearing on my front drive shaft is failing. At first it sounded like wind or vacuum like sound and progressed to lots of squeaky/rubbing noises at speeds under ~60mph.
I have about 3000 miles on the car since 3/1. =(

Has anyone else had a similar problem?

 

WTF? Gas pedal broke off?

 

LOL at payments being to high......truth..
