Per Consumer Reports 2013 BMW X1 28 which I own overall is much better than average reliability. 17 areas reviewed with 10 much better than normal, 2 better than average and 2 below average which were brakes and Climate Control. Engine and transmission were both rated much better than normal. I get the survey twice a year and report on my cars and believe the data because its a pretty big sample size of basically anyone that buys the magazine and fills out the on line survey.
Every year was pretty consistent with 10-11 catagories rated much better. If there were much in the way of timing chain problems it would be showing up and it isn’t so far.
