The car has the N47 engine which had chain issues but BMW claimed they were fixed by 2009 and only risk was of a noisy chain. Some people did have problems with later cars though. The B47 series new design came in about May-ish 2014 depending on model. I have had several N47 with no chain problems - the main issue is public perception of risk.

sadly the chain on my 2010 320D touring let go, was very tempted to have it fixed but the car was just a bit too small anyway. That said with 12000 mile oil changes it made it to 187000 miles despite a BMW remap. It was a cracking all rounder though. Had a new 330e touring as a hire car recently. Very nice, very competent, much bigger but has lost something.

I have an e90 with the N47 engine and I’m currently at 305,000km which I think is around 185-190k miles. I’ve owned it for a couple of years now and have put a huge amount of mileage on it, oil is changed every 8000km/ 5k miles and my car couldn’t be healthier. They’re great cars if you mind them. A lot of people neglect their cars and then whinge when they break down which just creates bad perceptions.

The older I get the more unimpressed I am with cars from the ownership perspective. They are all basically luxury car items with how expensive they are vs the real wages we make. I understand why so many people are going anti car as the days pass. They have lost touch. But then again people keep buying them and struggle to maintain and keep payments.

Matt I am on my 2nd version of this engine. That car is fitted with the N47 diesel engine which is notorious for dropping its timing chain . It was replaced in 2015 with a modified B47 engine. At 127000 it should have been done.The wheels on this car are Not SE spec alloys. It''s a base spec model with cloth seats and thankfully has the optional auto box . On the plus side they can rack up the miles . I have one opposite me same year , colour and its clocked up 187000 miles.

3mm on the tyres is plenty. More than the robbing Dick Turpin's at Lexus Stoke who wouldn't change the rear tyres on a £19k Mercedes that were totally bald. I withdrew from buying it and they kept my £1,000 deposit. I hope they choked on it.

Hi On a F30 BMW with a 2.0 D engine will have a N47 engine which are prone to timing chain issues when serviced in accordance with BMW service suggestions ie up to 19,000 mile intervals not a good idea !

I got one of those for my son. He loves it. The spec is surprisingly low for what would have been an expensive car. Worst thing about those cars is the timing chain, that will need to be done at some stage, is an engine out job.

At 140k they need the timing chain and guides changing. That's why so many of the 2.0d kaput

@mohitl1697 service might prolong it sure trouble is at that age nobody truly knows. I stay away from 2.0d when it's getting close to 140k. I see them daily through auction with engine failure. The issue is the guides fail and ruin the chain .

Mine is on 201k, original chain and tensioners. No noise, and still runs smooth, for a diesel anyway. Oil changed every 6-7000 miles. Owned from 29k. Most go kaput because they aren’t properly cared for.

@Mark-uw9kz don't get me wrong I've seem plenty on high miles. They are not the sort of car a dealer wants to get involved with at 130k miles just too much risk.

@Mark-uw9kz Ай бұрын
@@DaleSteel i agree, my thoughts are £1200 for the timing chain replacement vs the value of the vehicle vs the likelihood of other failures at this age/mileage. My intention is to keep it until it fails or becomes uneconomical to repair with a reserve in place already to replace when it happens not if it happens. 👍

Who ever buys that will be well P'd off if they think they're buying a full fat 320d and don't do their home work. The EfficientDynamics is a propper poverty spec aimed at fleet buyers with a detuned engine that makes only 160bhp to keep fuel consumption and CO2 emissions as low as possible so you don't get your pants pulled down on company car tax.

I've had odd tyres on the front in the past, the last time was when I'd caught a pothole in the middle of nowhere and split the tyre, the foam crap they supply these days didn't work so had to call the RAC who took me and the wheel to a nearby tyre stockist who only had my size in one obscure brand and only one in stock. Was either that or walking home. The tyre on the other side was nearly new so a waste of money to change to match.
