EGR Cooler Leak Risk (B58 Platform)€800-2,500 · 60,000-150,000 kmHIGH

The B58 engine family has a documented EGR cooler leak issue acknowledged by BMW, resulting in a recall affecting nearly 35,000 BMW and MINI vehicles on the same platform. The A90 Supra shares the B58 architecture and may be exposed to the same underlying risk, particularly on early build cars.

First-Year (2019-2020) Build Quality Issues€200-1,500 · 0-50,000 kmMODERATE

Community consensus strongly indicates the 2019-2020 model year Supra A90 had a range of first-year production problems that Toyota addressed in the 2021 model year update. Buyers of early cars may encounter issues that were corrected mid-cycle.

Oil Filter and Oil Quality Sensitivity€50-200 · 0-200,000 kmMODERATE

Community sources specifically flag the importance of using correct OEM-quality oil filters (Mann or OEM BMW/Toyota filter recommended) on the B58. Using substandard filters can affect oil pressure and long-term engine health on this high-output application.

Oil pressure irregularities

Engine noise on cold start

Turbocharged Platform General Maintenance Sensitivity€300-1,200 · 80,000-200,000 kmLOW

As a high-output turbocharged straight-six producing up to 412 kW, the B58 in the GR Supra demands strict adherence to oil change intervals and quality. Community sources note that neglected oil changes and poor-quality lubricants accelerate wear on turbo bearings and valvetrain components.

Buying Checklist

Prioritise 2021 model year or newer — confirmed to have resolved known first-year production issues

Pressure test the cooling system and specifically inspect the EGR cooler for any coolant leaks or residue

Request full service history and verify oil filter brand used — reject cars serviced with non-OEM spec filters

Check oil condition and level at purchase — dark, sludgy, or low oil is a red flag for neglected intervals on this turbo engine

Scan for fault codes with a BMW-compatible OBD tool (ISTA or equivalent) — B58 shares BMW electronics and will log turbo and sensor faults

Verify the car has not been tuned or flashed — modified ECU maps significantly increase wear risk on turbos, injectors, and drivetrain

Buying Advice

The A90 GR Supra with the B58 is a genuinely capable sports car with a strong engine underneath, but buyers should target 2021 or newer examples to avoid first-year build quality issues. Maintenance history is everything here — the B58 rewards careful owners and punishes neglect, particularly around oil change intervals and filter quality. Parts costs and servicing prices will be closer to BMW than traditional Toyota ownership, so budget accordingly. Avoid any example with a modified or remapped ECU unless you can verify the tune and inspect for associated wear.
