Loved the show. I still own a 2017 bmw m240 and drive 10k per year. I change the oil twice a year, change the coolant every 2 or 3 years and keep it half full always. No issues whatsoever great car

[@ECPP]

Great point! And that’s the thing a little maintenance goes a long way.

[@bobstarr]

Same car, same year, no problems. A question though, mine came with a four year service package and they only replaced the oil once a year because it's synthetic, do you change the oil twice a year just to be extra cautious?

Same with me. Maintain it and it’s perfect.

[@stephenlozano2816]

I’ve owned my 2015 M235i for the last 8 years. 61k miles with zero issues. I did replace the coolant expansion hose at 45k (preventative maintenance) because these hoses will crack. I’ll replace the oil filter housing gaskets at 65k. I also replaced the stock plastic charge pipe with an aftermarket aluminum one for added reliability.

Sounds good and those cars are a lot of fun. It does sound like parts replacement t time though once you get near the 60000 mile range

I have a 2020 230l convertible with the rare M package. The only major repair was the right rear blinker/tail light malfunctioned while under warranty. That part alone was $600. Also sometimes the driver side mirror tilts down after going from reverse then into drive. BMW dealer couldn’t troubleshoot the problem. Crazy fun to drive.

Looks like a 2022 G42. I have a 2024 so, a lot of buttons and shifter are gone. It does have paddle shifters which is nice. Had an E88 with no leaks. 80k miles trade in. We also had a 1996, 328iC, E36 (convertible addiction), no leaks. Old legends never die. Likewise, no major failures in any 3 cars. But I did much preventative maintenance, so we were never stranded on a road trip. It's a BMW. But it doesn't burn cash like a Porsche. We don't drive like a track GT3 car and break things. We enjoy the hill country in Texas or canyons in Colorado, etc.

I own a 2023 230i, have to say I love this car, I have the rear wheel drive b48 variant and it is quick, and nimble, a blast to drive, rated at 255 HP and 295 LBS of toque, but BMW is notice for rating HP low. A lot of people dynoing these and getting 270 HP. Comfortable cock pit with good amenities but not overboard by any means, Pricing is fair and would highly recommend this car for people who want a low cost entry level sports car that is fun to drive, gets great mileage and is comfortable.

The Irony.. they teamed up with Toyota to make the Supra and suddenly reliability is right behind toyota/lexus in the rankings.. the power of ZEN..great video as always Mark!!

[@germanengineering204]

Happened before Toyota ever came into the picture lol! B58 engine in Supra came out 5 years earlier!!😄

[@motorcycleartist]

@@germanengineering204 Yes Sir iam aware that the engine came out in 2015 while the Supra came out in 2019.the reason I said the power of Zen is bc toyota is the master when it comes to refinement..Bmw reliability in 2016 out of the 30 major manufacturers was 14th ..in 2018 it was 8th.. now it's 3. I never took anything away from them bc I'm a huge fan of BMW for over 30 years.. they are heading in a good direction and Toyota did play a part in that.. Its much easier to take a good engine and make it even better rather than develop a new one and spend billions on research n development..its a win/win for us..the consumer.. cheers 🥂

[@bobstarr]

@@motorcycleartist the rumor is that Toyota took a couple of new b58s and tested them and worked with BMW before it went into the supra, so it definitely is teamwork and a win win.

[@irvnegrin2211]

Have both a 335i N54 and an M240i B58, night and day. Purchased a 2007 335i E93 6mt as a CPO in 2011 with 35k. Here's my list, radio head unit under warranty, rebuilt dsc/abs motor, filter housing gaskets, water pump, serpentine belt, pulley and tensioner fouled by oil leaks, vanos solenoids, and hpfp. Carbon walnut blasting at 75k. Need to do valve cover and oil pan gaskets and rear main seal. AT205 is keeping leaks under control for now. Oh, and two rear cracked rims, warranty refused. At 125k, compression is over 190psi in all cylinders, and oil analysis is good. Purchased 2018 M240i F23 8sp auto in 2021 with 22k. So far, parking brake cable bracket under warranty, glad that I have one!! That's it. Now at 45k, time will tell. I love driving both cars, however they completely different. 335i is heavy but corners like its on rails, M240 is light and agile. Both are stock.

[@ECPP]

Thanks a lot for the comparison and my experience with the n54 in my E92 was similar plus wastegate rattle, T-stat and a variety of leaking coolant hoses on the plastic ends, an O3 sensor and lord knows theirs probably more

[@irvnegrin2211]

@ECPP The dsc was intriguing, I got it rebuilt by module master for $250 + shipping, 5 year warranty. A new one from BMW was $2500 + coding, 1 year warranty. I got the abs trifecta when it failed.

(I’m a 54 year old female…and I hate buying cars…and I really hate repairing cars…in search of a reliable fun car to drive) Thanks!

[@lilnapkin462]

Most of the things he mentioned are issues with the earlier 2 series that has the N20 motor. Stick to 2017+ for the B48 or B58 and it will treat you well. Parts are more than a Japanese car. Maintenance is more often. But it's also something very unique. The only thing comparable is an Evo X or STI. While those are Japanese cars, I feel like reliability may be a toss up between the BMW or Evo. The Evo is a much cheaper interior but you may not mind once you drive it.

[@markday5797]

I like the 2 series with the 4 zylinder turbo. Will be checking one out.

[@michaelpadula2943]

Maybe a Canadian version? I just got a 2021 228i w the M package (factory lowered plus other things). I have paddle shifters, E brake , and full sun roof , etc. Bought my 1st BMW in 1980. I had 6 BMWs and 1 Mini Cooper. Its an absolute blast to drive (ok probably because its lowered) . Best car since my 2004 X5 w the 4.4.

[@markvallas1296]

Would you recommend purchasing a 2018-2019 740i xDrive or same year Audi s8? Which is more reliable or better overall car?

[@nrich5127]

BMW can be summed up in one phrase = "Bust My Wallet" . These cars are for young rich males who lease them for 3 years and them dump back to the dealers. Let someone else deal with the horrible engineering. They are not designed to last. German electronics ... what a joke.

[@ECPP]

That seems to have changed indeed . 25 years ago, the priorities were much different

[@YoPhocFays]

BMW = bring more worries (you get that massive repair bill, early and often) BMW = bring more water (over heating when those plastic parts on the Coolant systems cracks and leaks)

[@leiflillandt1488]

But, at least they are quite interesting as DIY cars.

[@joebloggs4191]

If you are truly rich you don't lease cars or buy them on those bubble finances that is for the poor!

[@elroz1675]

nice. But didn't they come out with the new, less attractive, more angular design for the newest 2-series coupe? It has 255 hp and 295 ft-lb of torque.

[@ECPP]

Yea on the gran coupe only and FWD

[@morphius6078]

The 2 series BMW is basically, an entry level BMW. If that Black 230i was built and designed at the same level as my 2016 M6, noone would buy the more expensive BMW's. For the price point, I feel you are still getting a very nice vehicle with many of the quality designs and looks, inside and out. And, again, the engine and drivetrain are, for the most part, only as good as you treat it. If people drove Toyotas like many drive BMW M series cars, you would probably see many highways littered with broken down Toyotas. And vise versa, you would probably see a lot less BMW's in the shop. I had to laugh my ass off when I found out that Toyota doesnt even have the cahoona's to put their own engine in their Supra (they put a BMW engine in there instead). The only time my M6 has ever been in the shop is for scheduled maintenance and oil changes and my BMW dealership is always more than happy to price match any other place as long as the level of service is the same. BTW, I baby my BMW and drive it better than most would. As always, especially as of late, I find your videos very informative, fair and fun to watch.

[@ECPP]

Nice

[@bghoody5665]

I've heard one of the main reasons for BMW's sudden improvement in reliability is their partnership with Toyota in the Z4/Supra projects - Toyota simple wouldn't accept BMW's products as they were and pretty much demanded BMW step up their quality to meet Toyota's standards. Kind of makes sense when you realize just when it was BMW's reliability started to improve.

[@ECPP]

One would think that could have helped but the B58 was already used well in advance of the collaboration with Toyota.

[@nato8701]

Great video I’m looking to buy a 6 series, can you recommend the best year/model/engine for reliability & longevity? TIA!!

It amazes me how the country with some of the finest engineers in the world can produce so many problematic cars. Unless a person want an M series BMW or a Hammer series Mercedes I can't understand why they wouldnt just buy a Lexus.

That’s fair. For the hardcore performance the M versions or the AMG Benz or RS Audi is the way. Everyday wagons, well, go with what works and does not break the bank

[@michaelsuzio4268]

Lexus looks pretty bland that's why I've never been into bmw or Lexus but Lexus looks bland bmw has a slightly better looking logo

[@leiflillandt1488]

Very few have problems before 100, -(to maybe)120,000 km. Basically the/these cars should be recycled after that! The least carmakers are concerned about are the nature and use of natural resources.

[@zsb707]

Few Lexus cars are truly exciting whereas a normal, non-M BMW can be alluring. I've owned my E63 6 Series coupé for 13 years and it keeps being a fun to drive machine. Sound, cornering prowess, gearbox, driving position ... everything is spot on. I'm not a BMW fan as I've owned 10 cars from nine different brands, but that's my experience with BMW.

[@bobstarr]

I own a 2017 240i and it has adaptive suspension. The steering is light in comfort mode (maybe too light with a little soft spot in the middle) and firms up in sport mode. In sport it is too heavy for a parking lot but better than comfort at high speeds.

Those are very different cars. Its up to you what you think is worth it. Also why X drive when the Camry is front wheel? Test drive a 230i rwd. Rwd has better steering, suspension and handling. Even better braking with less weight. If you can live with something less fun after driving it, don't buy it. It has to feel worth it to you. You could always get a TRD Camry with the v6.

@@japanwatchconnection bmw is literally the best when it comes to aggressive performance, nobody tops them on the streets especially the ///M engines these vehicles are just not for everybody, because they require immediate maintenance, and attention, when a bmw engine low oil light comes on, the average dummy thinks it’s the best idea to top off the oil level, and this is exactly how to damage the engine, because you absolutely cannot top off your oil levels without a dipstick, so bmw low oil light means, you need to do a complete oil change, topping off dirty oil that already peaked its viscosity is a recipe for timing chain failure, running old oil on a cheap budget, you get more friction, oil won’t lubricate or keep the engine cool during hot operation, and this is why bmw is not for broke folks, if you daily drive bmw, and cannot change your oil every two months, leave these machines alone, get a Kia 😆
