Reliability woes for the N54 itself or just parts in general? The n54 itself is extremely reliable.

Not sure if I would count the water pump, thermostat and high pressure fuel pump as part of the N54.

Due to the number of failures for the above parts, BMW have been revising them since 2007 and I believe any replacements after 2011 should have a 80% less failure rate.
