        On my 318i....nothing, I've only owned it for a couple of weeks.

        On the Z...the following

        1) flappy & squeaky hood and trunk latches
        2) interior rattles (20 year old cars tend to develop a few of them)
        3) climate controls don't work properly
        4) boost guage only works properly some of the time
        5) slight vibration in the steering wheel b/w 45 and 75mph and under hard braking.
        6) exhaust heat shields rattle at low RPMs under full throttle

        ...I think that's about it. All pretty minor problems that I've come to notice after owning the car for a few years.

          body kit that previous owner epoxied on, so there is no taking it off without a repaint.
          its a good install just not my taste.
          dent on driver side fenter tip, around the headlight.(covered it with a sticker)

                  that the thing rattles like a can full of marbles-- I turn up the radio when anyone is in it so they don't hear it.

                              The water pump leaks, a lot. And the hood doesn't pop open all the way when you pull the latch, you have to pull the latch then pull the hood forward for it to pop open.

                                My odometer isnt working, my right suspension clicks. And last but not least is that the person sitting in the passenger seat doesnt know that the sunroof leaks at that spot lol.
