I have a new M240 xdrive with 2000 miles and the oil is still near the max line.

@TMidnight Ай бұрын

That’s great! It’s new so that doesn’t surprise me. Did you get a break in oil change at around 1000 miles? Although I don’t know if it’s required, I heard it’s a good idea.

Hello: When you mentioned it burns a lot of oil, do you have to put oil periodically? I had a 2012 bmw x5 and it burns a lot of oil that i had to refill it every 4 weeks and it kind of a hassle. Thank you and hope to hear from you. Great review!

@TMidnight Ай бұрын

I would say it depends on how much you drive, for me I was adding some oil at least once every two months. It was annoying to keep checking but the car was so amazing, I didn’t mind. Thank you.

@phill4337 2 ай бұрын

B58 here, burned 1qt 3400 miles since purchase. Winter it kept oil fine, soon as weather turned boom 1qt over probably 1000 miles.

@TMidnight 2 ай бұрын

I guess the warmer weather helps burn the oil quicker then. Now that you mention it, I think I was adding oil more frequently in the summer.

Great video. Last week I did cross shop X3M and X3M40i and I bought 2024 X3M40i. I love it. It is a bit slower, but much cheaper to buy and cheaper to service, maintain and a better ride. You gave me hope that this model is a reliable BMW.

@TMidnight 3 ай бұрын

Glad my video helped you make your decision. I agree that the M40i is plenty of power and reliability. The X3M is great but I feel the B58 engine is the best overall engine out there today. Have fun!

@TMidnight also another thing. On the next one I won't get run flat tires again if I can avoid it. Too expensive and very few options atleast for 19 in rims I've experienced. And I think they are not supposed to be repaired. Hit a nail. Boom 1200-1400 spent just like that. Yeah, I'm not a fan of run flats. But I absolutely love the car. Probably worth it still. But. 😆

I gave serious consideration to getting a 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid. In my detailed investigation of the Accord I found a few deficiencies that changed my mind. The problems I find with the 2023 Honda Accord: 1. No All Wheel Drive is available 2. No heated steering Wheel is available 3. No spare tire is available 4. No XM Radio. If a 2023 or 2024 car missing all of these features is okay with you, then get one. Hopefully, by the time 2025 comes around these deficiencies will be resolved.

That’s true, that is a lot of missing features for a 2023 car. I’m surprised the Accord doesn’t at least offer AWD like the Camry does.

@vternova 2 ай бұрын

@@shadowsniper9513 Hi There, Well, I just passed 111,000 miles. My X3 M40i is still running like brand new car. With all the experience that I have about cars, I went through a terrible mistake that was about to cost me $20K. in other words a new engine. Since I passed the 100K. Miles I switched to using W5-30 Mobil oil to prolong life expectancy of the engine, it was fine for the summer, but we have faced a sudden drop in temperatures in Tennessee and it snowed heavily, temperatures went down to 18F, in the first day in this low temp, I got a message stating Low Oil Pressure, and its suggesting to stop driving the car, long story short I had to replace the oil back to the recommended W0-20, due to this fault I had to replace the Oil Pressure Pump, thank God it ended this way. Other than that the car is preforming well, I don't press on it hard any more like I used to when it was in its 50K.sh miles. I believe the X3 M40i can do 200K. miles if it's been taken care of regularly.

Thanks so much for the video, In the process of buying a 22 x3 M40i. Met with the finance guy to over the extended warranties (which they take away maintenance for the 2nd owner or $810 ). The cost of the extended warranties (any of them ) negated the cost of buying used. So your review being a owner I'm sure isn't light driving the engine has me comfortable still getting it. Question on brakes. one of the extended warranties coverered brakes/rotors and they were telling me because of the active rear suspension the rear brakes wear quickly. Did you have that issue and if so how much was the repair?

@TMidnight 9 ай бұрын

I don’t have the active suspension on my car. As for the brakes if the price there offering for the warranty is good, I’d take it. An independent shop will always be cheaper for brake pads and rotors. I took my my car to the dealer for front and rear pads and rotors and it cost around $2500, a painful mistake. 😂
