Look, all the blocks of these diesels are the same with nearly 3 litres cylinder capacity. The 750d is a tri-turbo with enourmous power volume ratio. And it is a new development. According to my information it is not very steady, nearly no offered used car around here still has the first engine.
In my opinion the risk of non calculable costs is too high.
That's something we'll just have to see when these cars start hitting high km in greater numbers.
From the posts I've read on the subject it seems to be turbo failures but if it's because of weak design or just bad luck is too early to tell in my opinion.
I have two turbos on my current car and one of them was replaced under warranty sometime in the first 100k km. Now I'm past 290k km and not a single problem with the turbos.

Until someone can actually show some statistics with the amount of failures on the 50d engines vs how many are made and compared with failures on 30d and 40d engines I will remain a bit sceptical.
Or you start seeing that 2 in every 10 ads on mobile.de says engine replaced as is the case with Porsche 996 non-turbos. Then I'll agree there is a problem!
