- 4 Bmw 335i Reliability issues you should know about! If your looking to purchase a BMW 335i equipped with N54 engine, you might want to reconsider.
I have owned a one for about 3 years and i can tell you that this car can be very fun but at the same time very stressful to own. I'll be breaking down 4 common issues found in the N54 engine model of the 335i. Hopefully with this guide I'll be able to help shed some light on potential headaches you may experience as an owner to this BMW.
Don't get me wrong. I absolutely adore my BMW and would never consider getting rid of it. In my opinion the positives out weigh the negatives. The BMW 335i is a joy to ride. That said, it might not be for everyone.

Check out my latest BMW 335i video where I'm aiming to mod it: ruclips.net/video/ffYPm1cuThg/видео.html
I want to purchase 2011 335i with 135,000 kms on it
Does that car have same problem or the BMW have improved there engines after that issues in 2007 BMW N54
@Karn Singh the 2011 model uses the updated N55 engine. Has much less issues
Your wrong it doesnt matter how long. If theres a recall and it hasn't been brought in for the recall. You can bring it in and they'll fix the recall issue. And if it comes with the 120,000 miles 10 year warranty they have to give it to you. It's a procedural thing and it comes with the recall fix.
eBay has the valve cover and gasket together for $75, the water pump for $105, the fuel pump for $110, and the turbos are $655 (OEM) or about $850 for performance ones. So about $1,200 in parts just so y'all know
Ive been there and you absolutely should not buy a water pump or fuel pump for 100 bucks… not unless you want to replace both again in a year, or you want to get rid of a lemon and have no conscience. Proper Oem parts here in uk are 4x that price - each.
one thing i'd add on here is the cam trays the metal rings on the cams and changing them to teflon due to them eating into the trays.
Never buy aftermarket electronic parts. Always use oem for pumps
Stay away from eBay dude. Seems like a steal but you do not wanna install critical components from eBay
Thanks for the advice friend!! Take care! Mines is a 335i 2209 and I am about to change exactly that; the water pump, thermostat and radiator to make all new. Don't want to go back and open to just change another stupid part. Thanks again buddy!!!!
why you look like Eden Hazard ? 😂
you got it all wrong. Eden Hazard looks like him
I’m looking to buy one I really appreciate you telling us some of the big problems to look out for
Excellent and very informative video!
Thank you for the fuel pump info ! (I own a 2008 335i coupe)
No problem man, thanks for watching :)
I can agree if you plan on keeping the car stock those problems may seem significant, but if you are someone who plans on modifying and tuning their car, those issues are honestly no big deal in the scheme of things. A motor that can put our 700hp safely on stock internals is an engine worth a little maintenance.
Oh it's worth it for me, and I will be modding/running it soon
Hey N54 engine is amazing don’t know why you get so much Criticism.. It’s unreliable this that whatever.. I have one 2006 listen to this.. I had a 123d 2008 done a swap for a 335i 2006 with 96,000 on the clock with no service history or car history.. I had the car 2 years in July 2022. The only problem I had was ignition coil number 3 and 5, what blew by ECU, and that was my fault. I had a check engine light came on and I ignored it put it into sports mode put my foot down and blow the ECU.. and front two wheel bearings.. so far I’ve done 127,000 and it’s going strong.. remember I have no history on this car.. plus I have stage 1 map on it too..
I think with these cars the problem is people do not look after them they use abuse them use cheap shit fuel do not put any additives to keep the car clean from inside. Remember being direct port injection the soot buildup is crazy so you have to use additives to keep it clean or CarbonClean or walnut blast.. I haven’t done either of them I just put a bottle of additives into the fuel tank every 3000 miles.. and I really do push the car.. remember if you do not clean your direct port injection that’s what causes the The failure of your high-pressure fuel pump.. so far for me it’s going good.. 😍😍love your channel bro you gave me some good tips….
@@gtprosport7056 thanks for giving me some hope i’m hoping to snag one of these but i’m nervous because I don’t have too much money like most
Im late here. I think im good on all that, still have check engine light and trac control lights tho. Only has 137 on it, but its been sitting for 2 years.
2011 335is DCT here. 55.000 miles. Broken water pump, check. Leaking valve cover, check. Broken steering rack, check. Ignition coil replacement, check. Apart from that lovely car with 400whp. Lightning fast.
Worth the pain man! Lol
Damn lol only 55,000 miles on it?
This was a very informative video for me. I hit the 👍"LIKE" button as well.
all he says is true,he is right,i had all these issues.great video
🥲
This is hilarious. I have a 2007 335i 6spd manual coupe that I have had since 2007. I have had to fix every single one of these issues. I paid $35K for the car. I have over $10K in repairs on it and some of the majors got covered by warranty, but of course the most expensive were on my dime. 2020 I still have it taking up a spot in my garage to drive about every 3rd weekend. Wife begs me to get rid of it, but still love it.
I love my e92 2007 335i has over 181kmiles love it
Do you still have the car?
Thank you! Useful info
Don’t forget the oil filter housing seal. It will get oil on the bel and wrap it around the crack pulley.
I've had my 2007 335i for about 5 years now. Has 180,000 miles on it. Replaced the turbos/wastegates, injectors, ECM, and water pump (among other smaller things). Almost all of these problems occured after 160k. Thing's a beast when running well.
You're spot on, "a beast when running well" lol. Honestly I regret nothing, I love this car.
Do you have IG? I’d love to ask you some questions about how your 180k went? I have an 08 335xi as well. Thanks
Rolling Roast
IG? And I don't mind answering questions.
i plan on getting one ,well maybe one. question do you regrett getting it? and what was the first thing that when out so if i do end up getting it i would just get the car part before hand thank you
How much was the ecm
Thank you bro was thinking about getting a 2010 335i n still considering it
Bro idgaf. I'm going for it. 2 years wanting one but been on the fence because I got enough problems in life I dont need a car that can double them. Keep posting up
Sometimes you gotta take the leap and get what you want. It's what I did and I don't regret it one bit
bruh you literally took the words outta my mouth, pulling the trigger & getting one too 🙏
I'm going to start making videos on my 335i, stayed tuned
Me 3 I wanna get one too so tell me guys how yours go
I did the same thing, bought a MINT condition one at 120,000KMS back in late 2017 for a STEAL (only reason why i bought it) Since then i've changed the Valve cover gasket, oil filter housing, fuel pump, sparks and ignition coils, pcv valve, vacuum lines, you name it. It is full bolt on now and i just recently discovered my turbo seals are blown so im getting new turbos (Fuck my life) But for the price i got the car it's more than enough to justify the maintenance. especially if you do it yourself.
I bought a very nice 335i convertible. It is fully loaded. After buying it literally getting on the highway and check engine light on. I’ve been trying to figure out what it could be, and it keeps going different direction. First I thought it was the HPFP, I then had it scanned by an expensive scanner, and there was nothing about that HPFP. It was reset and as soon as you open it up you get the check engine light. I get an erratic idle when it is cold and have video of it. I got s code for the exhaust camshaft solenoid. I took them both out cleaned the one and replaced the one for the exhaust. I went to start it in the morning after doing that hoping it would make a difference, but it was sputtering when I first turned it on.
Great video bro.
Thanks :)
Thanks for the information. I already purchased on March 15 2019 an 2008 535I in pristine condition with only 19k miles on it. But i need to know why i need expect in the future with the n54 motor. Thanks again for the information.
Oil leaks, transmission seals and water pump... All were easy diy jobs for me.
As a mechanic (and N54 owner) the number one mistake I see people make with this car/engine is they don't maintain them OR when 1 part fails they don't fix everything else that is going to fail soon. Example: Oil cooler seal. If your oil cooler seal is gone it takes your belt out and wraps it around the crank seal (everyone here knows that). The problem is if your oil cooler seal is gone your oil filter housing seal is going very soon and so is your valve cover gaskets. Now you're going to pay 3-5x labor (at $100+ hour) because you're going to let the filter housing seal go and then it takes your crank seal out AGAIN and then the same happens with the valve cover gaskets. Just do all the seals at once, they're all gone. It's so much cheaper than replacing the crank seal, belt and having to remove the fan and top engine cover multiple times. This all happens within a few months of each other and the owners think this car is horrible when it really isn't.
Great insight!
So your suggestion is to seal ? I’m about to buy this car so I’d really like to know . Because I’m on the fence
$ 100 Hour Labour ? ? Come on Dude ! !
@@thenov1944 That's a normal labour rate what are you talking about?
The water pump on my 2012 335 coupe failed at about 42,000 miles. Had to replace the "inlet/outlet solenoid valves" a month later. I sure hope that's it for while.
How has it held up?
Do you still have the cR
I still have mine at 148k miles. 2009 e92
30FF common issue, the worst case is caused by turbocharger, and so far, my friend did replace big turbo, or hybrid turbo then comes lot of fun
After seeing this Good / informative video , having serious second thoughts about buying a 2013 335 i Convert Twin turbo Engine 49,000 miles decent looking body & very nice interior . Not knowing the past maintenance from previous owners , I 'm thinking this model of car could be a " Money Pit " because of the cost of parts & labor ! Can' t really enjoy a car if its in the shop much of the time ! Advice from any BMW owners ? ?
It's so amusing researching BMWs. I was thinking about a few different BMWs recently. Almost everyone of them seems to have very common and very significant engine issues. N47 Diesels have timing chain issues. These have multiple issues outlined in this video.
And you know what...ive been driving Alfa Romeos for years and none of their models have any engine issues like these BMWs. They just make much more reliable engines. But my god, when you mention that you own an Alfa to people they almost lose their mind wondering how I drive anywhere without breaking down. Its amazing what perceptions people have.
I'm still considering an M135/140i but the reliability issues mean I will probably steer clear.
Most speak without knowing. They hear someone say a certain car is unreliable and they add on like an echo effect. The 135i is definitely a fun car. If you want more tuning potential opt in for the N54 engine like I have or go for the more reliable engine in the later models, the N55.
I just can’t wait to get one of these I just need to find a good deal because here in Sweden the cheapest bmw 335i 2008 is close to 13k right now unless I want one with 280k miles for 6000$
Had a 08 e90 328xi went through every major bmw problem still getting the e92 335xi just gonna buy every major party ahead of time
That's one way to do it! Wish you the best
Cheers brother
i had this exact problems 2007 335i and replaced water pump 130,000.00 km( 400 $), ,plugs,heater fan ,at 200,000 oil leak valve cover(250.$)door lock,when oil leak on belt it will damage the belt and break the cooling fan too. (300$),the car will shut down.radiator hose break down.But the car has 300 hp, 300 ft lb torque and will beat most cars on stand still acceleration .if you cut the exhaust and put straight pipes (380 $) you get a amazing not too loud sound and crackle with steptronic shift down shift . it is worth the repair cost.you can replace the rear tires with 285x18x30 will give a sporty look will cost you 1000 $ for the rim and tires.turbos run with exhaust gases called -by twin turbo. I had a problem in side the electronic shift had to take the gear shift cover out and fix the wires too. they are very flimsy.I have a friend mechanic who was fixing the issues in toronto with out rip off. parts are cheap and readily available for these 335i cars .
I'm impressed at the low cost for the repairs. I paid double for the waterpump fix
you have to have a good mechanic to buy the parts from parts sellers .they only sell to mechanics ,other places they double the prices .I also bought the cold intake cone air filters (80$ online and bought all the plastic pipes and clamps from home depot and assembled at home.
Am in toronto and have a 2008 335i. Whats the contact of your friend
Hi, thank you for information and sharing the experience with your 335i convertible. For the hpfp failure, did bmw changed to a new hpfp that is more reliable for model year 2009?
I believe the 2010 model and up got an updated one with the N55 engine
Late here but im glad im clear on those issues, but i stull have check engine light, trac control lights, and brake light
I liked this video cause I know exactly where you are in Florida, I miss Florida. I hate living in Chicago
Making it happen brother, no one can stop you, stay safe outhere.
Great car. I have had a number of reliability issues injectors being the most recent. Just over £2,000.00 including labour to change all 6 at a BMW specialist. There are issues but.... when it works it's a great car.
It's definitely a headache at times, but in my opinion it's all worth it at the end of the day
@@VehicleVirals - I have had a few things done to the car stage 1 remap etc and should have changed the injectors at the same time. I think I have expected it lol.
I would get one but the turbo failure scares the hell out of me.
me too, same
Me too
Guys get the 330i. No turbos and its almost the same thing.
@@rassanelasso9558 thanks for the info
@@rassanelasso9558 The n53?
Thanks man. I am considering a 335i convertible this or next year. I am currently looking at some 07, 08 models. Good to know the common issues. I might want to buy one with a one year warranty from the Garage to be on the safe side
Best of luck man. You'll love the car!
Hans Hartenmoser get a 2009 the 2008 are plagued with issues.
Everything you mention happened on my ‘07 335xi: HPFP and lowPFP failure, water pump, turbo failure (both), and electrical issues (power door locks, sunroof, passenger rear view mirror).
After the red light flashed for 4x4, I gave up and traded it.
Sorry to hear that :(
ACDC, How many miles did it have when you sold the BMW?
x drive is shit
Very nice
Appreciate it Hung
My 335i 2010 coupe is 72k miles, only things bads the abs , speed sensors and top engine gasket , trother pipe nothing else and i did the job everything in one day
I had all these same issues with my 08 335xi too. So I sold it and bought a 435i! Lol
this video is blessed cuz im about to buy my first car...and yes its a 335i (N54)
Glad I could provide some insight
jesus newbie drivers buying 335s...
Don't buy it lol
U ghey
The what gate?? Lol very informative video for someone who isn’t a mechanic tho
Wastegate lol. I mispernounce words all the time
Vehicle Virals I’m just poking fun man it was a good video lots of info I used to work on these years I’d say you touched on the major issues there’s a few here n there that pop up in addition but Def very informative non the less
Appreciate it man. That was my first car reveiw and off the top with no script, I tried lol. Thanks for watching Jeremy :)
Good video but there’s no doubt from 2004 up to 2008 bmw is notorious for having issues, the 2009 up to 2014 is far better reliability.
Fully agreed
2014 be like f30 with n55s
Very rewarding car as long as you accept it's a MONEY PIT!!! EVERYTHING IS FREAKING EXPENSIVE!!! You buy one for $5k-$10k and have to spend $6k-$8k to fix it........not only 1x, but several times throughout its life time. It's a sexy looking ride, but It's cheaper LS SWAP!
I traded mine for a 09 g35s sedan manual.
But I kinda miss it....
Thanks for the breakdown and for the cost of thing it seems the 335 is a money pit. I was interested in buying an M6 convertible do you know any common issues with them. I owned a 2007 E350 4matic sedan for 10 years now never have does type of issues "knock on wood" . Although the BMW looks classy in a convertible seems like the E350 Cabriolet might be the one to purchase. Just doing my research now, thanks in advance, stay safe.
Is the engine mechanical friendly? I’m in the market for one. I’ve owned Audi’s all my life and worked on them
Bankrupt Me Weekly. I made that up myself.
Have owned many BMW's, including 3 E39 models and various 3 series including a E92 M3 and recently a 2011 335 sport package. My 335 had 155,000 miles on it and, after spending a small fortune replacing gaskets, etc. I had the infamous rod bearing failure that made the car, at 8+ years old and with that many miles pretty much not worth anything for a slug like me who is not mechanical. I am friends with the service manager at our local BMW dealership, and he told me a few years ago that BMW has serially been cheapening its drive train parts with each new model in an effort to cut costs.
I NEVER EVER red lined any of my BMW's and am not really a GM fan, but we had a 2002 Escalade that sat outside for 17 years and had almost 300,000 miles on it when I sold it, and my last few BMW's have had 10X the mechanical issues with a lot less strain and better care. Also own a 2014 C7 Corvette that now has 30,000 miles on it and it has been flawless. I don't think I will ever own another BMW sadly.
Hey I’m looking at a 08 bmw 335xi with 105000 miles I’m taking it to get inspected before purchase but if everything comes back clean would it be smart to own one if I have a warranty?
You forgot to mention another very common problem...fuel injector issues
Well in my case that was tied in to the high pressure fuel pump recall. One lead to another. But yes there are updated ones available now
Vehicle Virals yeah I've got a bad injector now so getting ready to replace all of them...got index 8s in now so obviously been replaced before. Mine is a 2008 as well but sedan with sport package
Ah ok. I'll tell you this, make sure your injectors are actually bad and not just misfiring from bad spark plugs and coils. They tried to rip me off once at the BMW dealer by trying to charge me around 4K for brand new injectors because 3 misfired. I changed the plugs and coils for around $100 and problem solved, no more missfires.
Good advice. I'm going to do it myself. Ordered a k+dcan cable and installing INPA so I can go through my codes. I know number 3 is misfiring so I can swap the coil pack from one that's not and see if the misfire follows. That's def cheaper if it's coils and plugs for sure.
1k just for Injectors so not cheap either
All of this, is routine maintenance. And easy to fix.
That's oil temp not water 😂
Replaced everything but the Turbos also guys UPPER HOSE COOLANT MICKEY MOUSE FLANGE THAT RUNS COOLANT BACK AND FORTH TO THE ENGINE BUY THE PIECE IN ALUMINUM FOR LIFE LONG QUALITY!!! She runs like a BEAST now💯
Im looking to buy a 335i 2007 manual for price of 16,900 it has had both turbos replaced last year for a cost of 6,000 so that is covered. 120,000 miles Good deal?
Can you please recommend the turbos you mentioned, aftermarket, if they go?
There are many available for purchase. What I would suggest is to search in the BMW forums to see what others there reccomend.
Hi bro, considering a 2008 335 coupe with 110k on it and a 2009 4dr with 60k on it. They have similar price around 8K. The coupe have some replacements listed here:
Jun 2015: 6 fuel injectors replaced, Brake replacement
Dec 2017: Replaced engine valve cover gasket, oil filter housing gasket, coolant hoses
Nov 2018: Battery replacement, brake flush, water pump & thermostat repair
July 2019: Blower Motor recall
Sep 2019: Coolant expansion tank
while the 4dr barely change anything.
Nedd your help on the selection
Thanks man.
it's seems the repair of the coupe makes it more solid ?
So should i buy a 09 335xi sedan twin turbos? Im looking to customize it in the future
My car gives a warning engine malfunction reduced power is it the turbo´s or bad stage 1 mapping ?
What kind of turbo would you put ?
I would personally go with hexon rr550/rr600s. They run about the same as oem turbos with much more performance. Plus they have a very good track record within the BMW community.
So if the fuel pump wasn't fixed under the recall then they will still take care of it right recalls are for the life of the vehicle correct?
The HPFP's are going for $700 now on FCP euro... Mine is definitely going out. It starts up okay on cold starts but it struggles to start up on warm start ups. Long cranks, almost like it wants to stall.
I got a used one from an engine swap for $150. It's been working great for years now.
@@TheFrenchPug The car's long gone and in betterish hands. I never got down to the start problem. Wire harness checked out to be fine
That's called BAD engineering.The problems offsett the fun
what should i check in the engine before buying a 335i from 2007 or 2009?
Mr Mimeitor WASTEGATE RATTLE
Yo bro, love your vids. Would these still apply to the 2011 Z4 35i since it has the N54 engine?
Yes applies to all N54 engines. The N55 is the updated one but with slightly less tuning potential.
My 2011 pump went at 85,000, it’s a 335, but was under class action lawsuit, 3 years ago .
Will just do it all myself and save a bunch of money 😂
Can everyone bring their car to you then Trayz 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 for future problems.
Nice vid, i have a 535 2008 ordered from factory got it around 2007 nov. Just reached 100k miles was chipped first 50k miles . Im trying to figure out why my car goes in to reduced power only after 3-4k rpm or sometimes 5k and higher so i cant ever get on it and want to do ecu flash again, had vishnu v1-3 and jb1 jbh+ good ol days lol .. what do you think makes it go into limp after 3k wot ? I spent 5k on maintenance so it has to be something small maybe fuel pump it was replaced at 20k which was long ago
What did this ever end up being?
What was the issue?
2008 535i, 110k miles, replaced lpfp sensor and coil after a misfire at cyclinder 3, few months ago, problem went away after. And then recently been having long crank issues cold/warm starts, and slight rough idle/vibrations at stop light, no codes, went to Indy and dealers for checkup, and they all said it’s fine... is HPFP or leaky injectors the problem now? Will I get stuck on the roadway one day when some of these things fail? Thanks!
I had the same with long crank starts and vibrations with limited power. I was told by BMW that 3 injectors were miss firing and that I had to replace all 6 because the older ones were no longer sold. Instead of listening to them I changed the coils and the spark plugs and all the issues went away. I also added fuel injection cleaner to a tank of gas and it's been nearly 2 years without any issues.
I just changed my valve cover gasket and it stopped the oil leak
None of these issues in my N52 engine, 6cyl normally aspirated port injection. Gives me 272hp in the E92 330I.
No HPFP, no turbo, no injectors, no heat, no problems. I value reliability over sheer power.
I love the tuning potential of the N54. I'll take my chances :)
@@VehicleVirals I like it too until the engine blows up, melts down, heats up, you name it.
Nexus Achiles Plenty of friends that are pushing 600+ WHP in their N54s. We all DIY so we save a bunch. Add the FCP EURO lifetime warranty. Why the heck not 👌😜😜😜
so you enjoy getting gapped m8
@@marcmaceira9937 better gapped than stranded with my kids at the back
But if you get upgraded turbos you also need to get it custom tuned, so you can add an extra ~1000$ to that
Most pro tunes are around 350-500 I’ve never seen it go above that
@@griffin_kith6214 ....I agree!!! ...Some shady shops try and get over though, especially if the customer looks like he has money to burn lol
Same problems like all I am afraid all ready, the car is epic when you drive it is like some girl blow you but I took it on 210 000 for one year I give 5K for fuel and 3K for rapiers and now my mechanic told me car is very tired , he told me to expect injection , fuel pomp , and some another problems , i replace water pomp front suspension , and gear fail to be true , great fun when drive but expect yellow or red light every-time when drive it
so if you get a new high pressure fuel pump you get an upgraded part? or just the same "new" part ?
Updated pump
My boi lives in the dp area we should meet up one day!
Oh snap! Small world
A mercedes ad before watching a bmw video is awkward
😂
Please help mine is now vibrating when am driving 60 to 80 km/h
How much to replace the turbo and how much for the labor? Just curious.
It's a year worth of mortgage 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Trying to decide between this or a 328i
My son inlaw left us one of these, the engine has had mods we don't know exactly, looks like a intercooler air filter and turbo's look aftermarket we can take pic's. It's been lowered with fancy wheels and tires. They set this up to drift and I would guess they melted several tires, Johnny only had this a couple of days, the mods look professional but I have no proof of that. If you want it leave me a comment please, we are in Missouri. This is my 2 year old granddaughter's car now, she needs a fair price. Thank you Michael
How much r u selling it for
@@stevetamburo7942 $3,000.00 It's sitting in the middle of Missouri
@@devilsbackmike6420 what's your phone number??
Is the more reliable engine in the 328i convertible? Not as much power or fun but less expenses?
Yes the N52 engine found on the 328i is more reliable
I got a 2007 bmw 335i, car was running great until i started idling, i had to replace my fuel injectors, spark plugs, o2 and fuel sensor bank 2.. 335i is a pain in the ass to fix no lie
A love hate relationship
How much did it cost to fix
I like how you don't tell us all the problems you've personally had with the car
I did in my review video. I had the electric water pump go bad, and two fuel injectors were misfiring which i fixed by replacing the spark plugs and the coils
u look mike a buff eden hazard mixed with a little depay
Dose BMW 2008 328i and 2007 335i looks the same ?
i was looking to get a 2009 BMW 3 Series
335i Convertible 2D
54K miles now this make me want to pick something else
It's risky business to say the least. Just get a mechanic to take a look at it. Once I got all my issues resolved it's been trouble free for over a year now
So main issues is water pump ,seal gasket, turbos , high pressure fuel pump?
Only issues I've had was the high pressure fuel pump which was fixed through recall, waterpump and windshield water pump. I also started getting misfires but after changing the coils and plugs it ran perfect. According other owner leaky seals and turbos going out but I've never experience that and my car is at 60K miles
@@VehicleVirals the car is a 2009 it has 54k miles on it. It's a convertible to. So it can be check out to see if that recall was fixed.

The gage you showed is the oil temp🤷🏻♂️
you're right
I’m looking at 2008 335i 6mt with 94k miles on it, it’s been serviced very well but what problems should I look out for and does it seem like a good purchase for 12k
Baught mine for 7k with 165k on it but its a show car and its ben main-tainted very very well highly recommend these cars
People will do anything to defend there purchase
Couldn't you just off fixed the fill pump yourself or is it too complicated?
Mine was replaced under the recall
Turbo issues
Replacement hpfp go bad
Various Electronic issues
Oil filter housing leaks
Ignition coils
Injectors
Heavy carbon buildup
We can keep going
Valve cover leak
Oil pan gasket leak
Boost solenoids
Charge pipe cracking
Wondering do you have a 328i vs 335 comparison?
I don't sadly
Interesting how no one talks about the x-drive system. Hardly hear about mechanical issues or repairs.
Great... You make me worried with the new Toyota Supra.....
The new supra has a b58. And if TOYOTA chose bmw, there must be a very good reason, since Toyota is known for reliability. Also some newer bmw are very reliable. And not to mention every car has its issues. I’ve heard the Lexus rcf have lots of issues.
Coolant system is a easy repair, I do this in my sleep.
I got so lucky purchasing my 2007 e90 335i. Bought it at 110K miles March 2020 and within the last 20K miles, the high pressure fuel pump was already replaced, water pump and thermostat, valve cover and gasket, starter, battery, and spark plugs. Got it for $5,500 and the interior/exterior is in excellent shape. All it needs now is oil pan gasket($650) oil filter housing gasket ($200), new tires, brakes and rotors. I guess this is when the previous owner decided to give up lol. Just don’t understand why give up when you’ve already done so much work so recent. But taken he was from Orange County Ca he probably upgraded to a newer car😏. HUGE shoutout to the previous owner as I plan to upgrade and tune the hell outta this stock 335i 😝
how many miles do you recommend buying a bmw below 50K?
So many factors that go into it. Like how hard the miles were driven or how well the car was maintained. Just make sure you know as much about the car's history before purchasing one.
As long as it’s under 120k your good tho
Hopefully I get my 08 e93 335i in 2 weeks
Best of luck! 🤞🏼
@@VehicleVirals Thanks bro
