Common problems and easy repairs on a 2013 335i xDrive
The 2013 BMW 335i xDrive is difficult to maintain. You will have to work in an awkward position while using some uncommon tools to access the cabin air filter from underneath the glove box, which won’t allow for reliable filter changes. Reaching the front fog light could be a problem as the entire wheel well lining will need to be removed first. Checking the oil level will be time-consuming as you’ll need to wait for the vehicle to warm up first, while also toggling to the appropriate section of the electronic menu.
However, the 2013 BMW 335i xDrive has its upsides. Monitoring the engine coolant won’t be a problem given the unobstructed access to the reservoir. The oil drain plug and the oil filter are also easy to reach, allowing for reliable oil changes. The engine air filter housing can be disengaged without any tools, making for easy filter replacements.
