And why do BMW cramp their engines with plastic stuff

Just buy Lexus guys

I actually replaced my cooler at the stealership for free 2 months ago, and it hasn't lost coolant since then, but up to until then it was losing around 0.1l every month... f30 318d lci

Which years models are the most reliable ones for engine and electrical parts?

My f30 320d ed 2014 already has 340k km, only clutch, egr recall, intake manifold cleaning and valve cover gasked was changed. No chain rattle, still sturdy when i checked while fixing VC gasket. I perform 15k km oil changes - oil and filters from official bmw dealer (bmw ones) since 200k km. Maybe a turbo a bit whiney when its cold

I like the way you do your reviews,kindly do a review on the Mitsubishi fuso canter 6th generation

I have a BMW F11 520d xDrive with the B47 engine. I replaced the timing chain preventively at around 230.000km , it was still good, and replaced the EGR cooler at the BMW dealership for free as a part lf the recall. The car is doing great, done about 30.000km with it, mostly highway (it is a big car) and with regular maintenance (10.000km) it should be going strong. If you take care of your car, it will take care of you.

Basically it’s best to buy a Bike Can you do a video for the engines jn w212 and w205

Seems like a great and trusty car to buy 😂

Which is the most reliable cars?

Could you make a video on the VW Passat B8? Thanks

please bro do toyotas and lexus

ohhh boy I have been waiting for this! I am more waiting for Volvo 5 cylinder engines in P3 platform. Ideally the diesel 136kw all the way to 158kw and of course petrol T6 6cylinder engine

So much information packed in one video! Your channel deserves more attention! Thank you so much!

Been driving the N57 engine since 3 years and added 80k km, no problems so far

Wow you actually did it. Thank you so much for this video

💪💪👍👍

I'm glad I bought a 2.0 CRTDI passat instead

A Giulia video would be nice (939 Alfas too, of course). And Maserati videos as well.

Wow, thanks so much for this information. Your videos are always detailed, informative and produced to a very high standard. Any chance that you can make a used car buying guide for first time car buyers? I am wondering if there are some car brands and models you would recommend to buy used

Can you make and for F10 Diesel models ? Thank you

I own BMW 320d f30 N47 and your video is very helpful Thank you and love you from India

Damn I was thinking of buying an b47 as a first car not anymore

As an addition to these issues, a lot of B47 engines have suffered turbo failures due to ice forming in the intake pipes and getting sucked into the turbo. This is only a problem in colder climates. Some have tried to solve the issue by fitting an N47 intake pipe into their B47, which doesn't have as many places where ice can form.

full review almost done - coming very soooon article on the website with more details still not ready yet - that coming soon as well

Hey man you are a wonder! Can I share your videos by translating them into Turkish language, you are very informative, even if your answer is no, thank you, great content. 👏

Found out after my purchase, but 4:40 the facelifted was only partially done for 2014 in North America. Rather it got the updated rear 3 bench seat instead of 2, and the exterior/infotainment has stayed the same until 2016 when the refresh came through.

Your English is terrible 😔

Slap a downpipe on a 1KZ and your car will pull harder than any KD

What about m550d? The 3.0 liter tri-turbo 381hp… Is it reliable?

Dziękuję za bardzo obszerny i rzeczowy opis tego samochodu! 👍👌🤌

Straight to the point 💯

I have 1.6dti Jetta 2014 it has reach 4k without opening a engine and it still reliable

Contemplating getting it preowned ....good video thanks for the review

Second hand money pit

I already have the water pulley issue at 50k miles. This engine is nothing but head aches. You didn't tell them about the actuator flaps in the ac tho. Gotta rip the whole dashboard out to fix it 😢

Both of those engines are Mercedes’ most common engines! If you don’t recommend either of them, maybe you should be presenting a Toyota instead! My experience, from watching/reading a lot of reviews, is that the 350 V6 is very reliable, but it is also true, replace the timing chain at the given service interval, or risk a BAD failure, that will destroy the engine.

does anyone make aluminum or billet parts to replace all the plastic crap on these engines?

Ive got a 2004 avant c5 1.9 tdi Its 20 yrs old Engine is bulletproof Only cosmetic issues from age Only issue is the last owner had a transmissom transfer oil pipe fitted in 2021 and twisted it on wrong causing it to have a kink in the pipe and not cool the transmisson oil properly and overtime burning thru the pipe and cracking it causing an oil leak - causing the auto transmission to slip the "gears". Currently getting this fixed but other than that it woukd be working fine if they fitted it correctly.

I’m about to buy one and go look at it today, thank you this was a very helpful video 🎉

Thanks to German cars 🤭 because everything made of plastic 😅

Does this apply the the Audi A7 3.0 TDI V6 286bhp?

the plastic chain tensioner shoes can be purchased on a few sites, and just those changed. The plastic becomes brittle with age and heat cycles - then they crack/shatter and then you can have 40 valves bending on the pistons. can remove tensioner and pop off old shoes and pry on new shoes. Need a stubby torex 30 bit to crack loose the cam caps. the HARDER thing is re-sealing the valve covers to prevent leaks - overdo it with RTV on ends and bottom edges of cover.. also RTV the bolt rubber bushings -- this leak goes on to the exhaust manifold so you get to breathe the smoke- not good for your lungs.

Muitos mecânicos comenta que os motores 2.7L diesel só presta dos anos 2005/6 ,que são mais confiáveis do 2007 a diante começa a aparecer os problemas citado no vídeo é só vai piorando quando passa para o 3.0L

tenho uma Lr3 2005 azul v6 4.0L a gasolina pra mim é o melhor motor sem muitas coisas para se preocupar , remodelei ela igual a Lr4 no 6:01 e 8:01. Tem que comprar uma com uma boa manutenção dependendo do que estiver ruim numa compra mau feita pode ter levar a falência

Is the sunroof drain problem also on models without a sunroof. not sure if ALL lexus RX models came with a sunroof.

Add to the oil leaks, upper oil pan! A major job, bigger than timing kit. Car has 311.000km and the leak is obvious, under tray all oily, plus some traces under the back of the car from wind while driving. Customer says car does not use oil so is reluctant to fix the leak.

Does the 2020 SQ5 TDI with Evo897 gen2/DEWB engine has any problems with reliability? It’s basically the 286 hp version with a remap from Audi. Have you heard for any issues with that engine? When should i change the engine oil(interval) for this engine?

Hi guys , anyone can help me with w212 e500 what should I look in total , from beginning to end.

The best and most complete Prado Diesel issues I have seen...
