Bentley Continental GT Common Problems and Solutions
Electric window failure
Problem:
Can you hear a hissing sound coming from one of the windows when moving it up or down? This is an indication that the motor is failing. Each motor has its own ECU, and is a very complex system.
Solution:
The motor cannot be replaced alone, so a replacement unit is needed.

Blocked plenum chamber
Problem:
If you have a blocked plenum chamber, you run the risk of water leaking into the front footwells and/or leaking through the ventilation system. The plenum chamber is located underneath the front windscreen and can become blocked with leaves and debris. This can eventually damage electrical parts, which will be very costly to repair.
Solution:
You will need to unblock the plenum chamber and remove any leaves or debris.

Problem:
Have you begun to notice that the front end appears very low? If so, this is a clear indication that the air suspension system is failing.
