BMW 135I N55 COMMON PROBLEMS!

[@thru9873]

great video need way more recognition

[@RandomGuy-ej9gr]

7 year old car with a cracked engine block? Reliability at its finest.

[@Stanley88845]

Because the water pump failed and the engine overheated. Water pumps failing after 7 years isn’t exactly uncommon and overheating is due down to the owner not stopping and getting it towed.

Top man for sharing this thank you

[@gavinlawrencewebuildcoache5714]

Really an awesome video waiting for next one .

[@itsimty]

Thank you for watching

[@ArranD1]

I needed a new rad fan and new rad fan wiring loom, also had a misfire on cylinder 5 that was down to a faulty coil, only able to find out the cylinder with bm main dealer software

[@bobbyv369]

How much was the fix?

[@HibbahHussain-l2y]

What a great video life saver

[@t.c904]

i think the n55 is a good engine. much more reliable then the n54. the fails (waterpump, OFHG ...) are not very expensive.

[@arks6048]

N54 still winner 🏆

[@shaneevans774]

Can you give me some advice, I'm getting vibration at idle in my m135i. Can feel through the gearbox, which the car is a manual. No fault codes stored at all. I would appreciate any help, to far me to come to Derby unfortunately. My car as been to 3 different garages, none of them can fix it 😒

[@isa270991]

Exhaust?

[@shaneevans774]

@@isa270991 Thanks for the reply, the vibration happens when the engine goes down to 600 rpm, at 700 rpm the vibtration is better but I can still feel slight shakes.

[@chrisg4rr377]

@@shaneevans774 is the bottom pulley damper not vibrating?

[@shaneevans774]

@@chrisg4rr377 I can't see any wobble on the crankpulley but I will get it checked. Thanks for the reply 👍

[@isa270991]

@@shaneevans774 my e60 does this. When I’m racing around and then pull up. Vibrates at idle I’m not 100% certain what it is but I just thought it was the exhaust system

[@ChrisJohnson-cz8pb]

Hello G-tech! Just out of curiosity what happened to this motor? Did the previous owner have a new engine fitted and is it currently on the road? Would love to know!

[@itsimty]

The engine was replaced and the customer sold it shortly after.

[@ItZFlipz]

as he should there fucking shit I just brought one for 5k smashed back end once its repaired I won't even start the car straight sale fuck these cars

[@wingmanlmg]

Late reply, but do you guys know what caused this issue? Was it serviced and maintained properly? Did the owner track the car?

[@itsimty]

Yes a failed water pump caused the engine to overheat then the block cracked

[@masitraproductions977]

Is this a common faults video or a video about this specific car, sure looks like the latter.

[@itsimty]

We have seen these faults on several cars of the same model, being a specialist garage. This is why we highlighted these faults that COULD occur.

[@TherymasterWidnes]

Hiya mate, im looking at getting a 64 plate with 100k on it for £11k, FBMWSH, any thoughts?

[@AyroZz]

Hi Bro, I am still waiting for the bmw 123d to be modified 🤩 Did you cancel the project, or is it still in progress ? Thank you

[@itsimty]

Still working onit, more videos of the 123d coming soon

[@itsimty]

[@itsimty]

Thank you for watching

[@liamgodfrey2735]

Nice R32 that at start

[@Zerofightervi]

The drivers.....

[@mrlionrocks]

So basically avoid this car? 😕

[@itsimty]

No not at all, this video is just advising of the common faults that COULD occur on a N55 135i.

[@mrlionrocks]

@@itsimty is the m140i better? Been looking at these cars Thanks x

[@itsimty]

Yes hands down the m140i is fitted with the newer B58 engine, I would go for that, very easy to Tune aswell

[@isa270991]

So it’s basically a shit car? Breaks all the time?

[@callumg_0147]

No they don't break all the time. ALL cars have common faults. Look after it and it will be fine.

[@ScottPC]

No1 problem with these are B58's...

[@RobLast-vh7dl]

Absolute guarantee to fail , oil starvation spun bearings hey presto kiss good bye 👋

[@Manuqtix.Manuqtix]
