I have owned a 2009 330i LCI sedan for 13 years and in this time I have had to replace: cylinder head cover and oil pan gaskets due to oil leaks 6 ignition coils, 12 ignition plugs, 9 fuel injectors, 1 NOx sensor due to engine misbehaving during idle or acceleration 2 new springs at front, all 4 shock absorbers due to one spring at front breaking 1 new battery due to original battery losing power. Original battery lasted from 2009 to 2024. Changing all 6 injectors cost 4100 euros. 1 NOx sensor cost 670 euros.

Heaviest sc400 was in the 98-2000 at 3,655 and the first generation 92 was 3,575 fully loaded. Build quality and features continue to out class many modern cars today. Regardless, this machine has unlimited potential when it comes to high performance. It's chassis is very rigid, excellent wheelbase, with strong axles and multi link suspension, not to mention the overbuilt, over square, 6 bolt main, race inspired 4 liter V8 with a front mid engine position. Nuf said... It's a diamond in the rough or for you light weights who know only what' your told and have little critical thinking skills, it's just an old outdated 4000 pound boat..yeah that's what it is!🤔

I recently bought a 1994 Lexus SC 400 with just over 60,000 miles on it, that's just 2,000 mi a year. I bought it from a Medical Doctor in Texas who bought it new. He had two other vehicles and said this was his "Hospital Car" the one he drove a couple miles to his Hospital. It is red with saddle leather interior and beautiful, in near showroom condition. I replaced the nearly ten year old tires, had the Timing Belt changed and had them replace Water Pump and Alternator (since they had the front of the V8 Engine off for the Timing Belt). I drove an LS 400 for 17 years and put 230,000 miles on it before I gave it to an office assistance who loved its Peal White color. So I know the SC 400 is a quality, solidly-built car.

There was a good mod someone once did where they took a sheet of thin, bendable metal and applied it under the power steering pump in order to divert and ATF drip coming from the power steering pump and/or connections in order to prevent the drip from landing onto the alternator. Does anyone have a reference to that, please?

For power steering fluid, I switched to using Valvoline MaxLife ATF in our '92 SC400 and it drastically reduced leaks right away. Drastically, as in going from having to add ATF every 500 miles or so to only needing to add it every few thousand miles. I doubt if the original specs for ATF use in Toyota power steering systems are as refined and as specific as the ATF specs needed in their transmissions.

The 325i came in two different versions, the 2.5-liter N52B25 with DISA, and the 3-liter N52B30 without DISA. Both made similar power and torque figures from factory. The former is the one Australia got, and the latter America. I had to settle with the 325i, as it was the only NA straight-six available in manual. We didn’t get a 330i in stick down here, and xDrive was unavailable in wrong-hand drive. The 335i was available in three pedals, but I stayed away from it due to being less reliable and would have preferred AWD if I were to make gobs of power.

I got my starter out in 5 hours. Not "easy" I did cut my arm trying to get behind the coolant passage/wiring harness when I dropped a wrench. But when you disconnect the starter completely and get that bit of the harness out of the way along with that unfortunately placed 12mm bolt, a ratchet with a deep socket can get both bolts fairly easily as long as you have a decently long handle. Main things to keep in mind is not to remove the double flare-nut for the fuel line, they're very easy to damage and will require the whole line taken out from tank to engine if you damage it, instead remove the fuel line directly from dampers and just replace the crush washers, there will still be a 10mm bolt holding the bridge between the fuel rails on with the vvti models with the ACIS manifold, but you lift it out you get fairly easy access to that and its a non-issue. Keep in mind, I had a large break in the middle of this searching for the ratchet that fell behind that coolant passage into the trans tunnel, this job could very easily be a 4 hour job if I did it enough. Also keep in mind since you are in there, if you have a VVTI ACIS manifold, replace the damn VSV on the bottom of the intake, it is incredibly common for those to go bad. The other big one you will probably notice when you do this job is that the valve seals leak on these engines, even under 100k you will see the carbon buildup and evidence for valve seal leaks and even under 100k you will have starter issues at the age of the car, consider when you're doing big jobs like this or the timing to get in there, reseal each valve with the cylinders pressurized and reshim your valves ontop of that. At this age its a small price to pay for futureproofing, those kinds of jobs could last you 30+ years as they already have from factory.

I really felt that the 325i was noticeably underpowered compared to the 328i and 330i, and if you can get the 330i at a similar price point then I would take it 10 times out of 10. 325 is still a lovely vehicle and if you find one at a deal, it's still worth it :)
