Why I Bought The Most Unreliable V8 BMW Ever.

[@davidog4]

I miss my e92 M3. Sold it during the Pandemic after 11yrs of ownership. Not as capable as the s58 but its fast enough and the sound is mesmerizing!

[@CarswithMiles]

An F80 M3 would've been my choice if I wasn't focused on speed. This car just has so much more soul IMO

[@mindlos3960]

E92 sound makes it a no brainer in choosing between it and F80

[@sugarhog1938]

I want a e92 m3 wrapped in Miami blue as a project car. But my fiancée didn’t allow cuz I js got a cayenne gts 2024 upgraded from a 24 cayenne s e, my parents paid the difference for taht one, then now I need a replacement in 2025 for my 2022 m5 comp cuz it’s going up in value and tech issues are getting common. So I probably have to wait for a year to drop 10k

[@davidog4]

@@sugarhog1938 I missed my e92 m3 so much I now own a G87 M2 with the S58 engine. Hopefully interest rates go down, so you get more bang for your buck. Loving my new M2. Its faster than a Mustang dark horse. S58 is a beast, and I actually like how it looks lol!!

[@sugarhog1938]

@@davidog4 Ik, im fine with a lot of g series cars, even the m5. I’m just not liking the x3 and the ix, it’s ruining the brand. And I’ve owned 4 BMWs now I want to try something new, like amg or RS. (I used to have a 2019 x2 in alpine white (crashed totaled), not too long after I got a m240i as a little sports car. then I got a 2021 x3 m40 cuz I saw how affordable it was for a 6 cyl. The m40 wasn’t enough space so I gave it to my sister who js turned 16 back in 2022 so I gave her the x3. Then in February of 2023, the 240 started tweaking and having problems with the headlights not working, key fob not opening the vehicle, and I’ve put 50k km on it. I always wanted a gran coupe, so I looked for an m8. But back then I don’t know if it was Covid but it took me 4 months to get an m8 gran coupe, all they had in stock were 2 convertibles and 7 coupes not even in frozen black which was the colour I wanted. Then I saw the m5 comp, matte black, every package other than the ultimate package. Fell in love with it and got it. Don’t have any regrets but now like all BMWs, the sunroof not working, key fob not working and the ac. Plus the new m5 really increased the value of the f90, so I think I’m going to keep my f90 until early 2025 or late 2024 and get a used rs5 or 2025 e63

[@SicSemperBeats]

This is so far from the most unreliable BMW V8 as possible. That's the N62, S62, N63 pre-TU update and high mileage s63.

[@Sha-Ayo]

So basically avoid BMW V8s?

[@SicSemperBeats]

@@Sha-Ayo yes if they’re not under warranty. As far as 2000’s v8’s the s65 once rod bearings and throttle actuators are done, its the most reliable one from bmw lol. Video is extremely mistitled.

[@CarswithMiles]

They'll all be bad if you're not on top of maintenance. But the title is mostly satire

[@SicSemperBeats]

@@CarswithMiles i agree in a general sense, though i do fault the early n63 for keeping that troubled injector design and that coolant hose not being metal that’s along the hot vee.

[@MingeShagger]

I have owned my e60 550i V8 since 2017, which has the n62 engine (189k miles on it), I'm the second owner and never really had any issue besides dynamic drive hydraulic line bursting. I always change the oil every 5k to 7k miles max. For me, it has been the most reliable car i ever owned and will drive it till it falls apart. They seem to never age, most people still think it is from the 2017-18s.

[@dl6860]

Dude Miles, your videos are fantastic. Your attitude is fresh and grounded in reality. You don't pander to corporates, you don't love the brands, you love the products, and it shows. Here's a shout out from a fan that wants you to be you - as you are and as you grow. Keep it up mate.

[@CarswithMiles]

I really appreciate that!

[@Kingjay814]

I’m not the biggest BMW guy. I do prefer them to Mercedes. But the E92 has always been a car I’ve absolutely loved. One day I’d like to own one

[@CarswithMiles]

Buy the right one and you won't regret it

[@R2-DTu]

Asking what word J Cole uses and dropping grippy is CRAZY 😂

[@CarswithMiles]

💀💀

[@MrCarSounds]

Yes. Welcome to the club :) Don't worry so much about reliability, I've put 55k miles on mine in 4 years and it's been amazing. TA's are also a non catastrophic item, just swap em out and you're golden.

[@willjam465]

I have had a number of "fun" cars over the years including a Mustang GT w/ performance pack, a GT350, a couple E36 M3s, and also an E90 M3 with the manual. Out of all of them, I miss the E90 by far the most. It is just a superb vehicle (engine issues notwithstanding).

[@CarswithMiles]

There's not many cars like it out there today

[@AmosDohms]

How was the GT350?

[@willjam465]

@@AmosDohms it was fun. Great exhaust note, people loved it as it was right after they came out. It was just not as refined as the E90 M3. Felt larger on the road too. With such wide front tires, the tramlining was a problem on many of the roads around here. I didn’t drive it much as it was a second car for me, so it just sat. Was a lot of money just to sit in the garage, so I sold it. While the GT350 is usually more popular at the cars and coffee, the M3 just wins at the end of the day to me.

[@AmosDohms]

@@willjam465 The GT350, especially the R, seem fairly track focused to me, though definitely great for sporty road driving too. If I remember correctly, they're a fair bit quicker then the M3, but I totally get that they'd be less refined.

[@AbandonedRaven]

Even though it’s not my favorite M3 (that in particular being the E36 for my specific tastes), I’ve always thought E92s were so clean and sounded so good. Congrats on the new ride! 👍🏾

[@CarswithMiles]

Can't go wrong with any M3!

[@GianniMartira]

Just bought a 2017 C43 coupe last month and this just sparked the flame for getting more mods, love taking an already great car and just making it your own. Dope car and even better vid! Best of luck with it man it's truly timeless!

[@MrMetsfan67]

For anybody watching this, I'd also look at the Mr12volt unit for these cars, especially if you have the individual audio package. The Mr12volt hooks in using the fiber optic line on the CD player and has significantly better audio quality vs. the aux port. It functions identically to the bimmertech unit as well.

[@clinttube]

I'm planning on doing that with my E64 M6 for audio quality purposes like you say, but if your BMW didn't have the CD changer option from new you do need to get that feature programmed on so the factory head unit recognizes the fiber optic input.

[@Peanutdenver]

First off congrats and I'll add I've had several M cars over the years starting with a 2013 E92 M3, my first mod was a Akrvpovic exhaust and 2nd was a Brembo big brake upgrade after 2 years of ownership . I do miss the steering and revving the V8 out to redline, it'll give you a smile just getting on the freeway. I actually liked it better than my old F82 M4. I now have a G82 M4C and it is the best performing M car to date, for me. You're right about soul and the E92 had it in spades. You'll love it and you've educated yourself about the throttle actuators and rod bearings already. Doing it for piece of mind for any new E92 owner is my advice and then you can drive the wheels off it. One of the best M cars BMW produced....enjoy. One more thing mod wise...if you want more intake noise look at Eventuri carbon intakes, they make a great product for the E9* BMW.

[@JoiceVaderd]

Clip at the very end looks like he's doing just that. Seen someone do that on the E60 M5 and the induction noise was beautiful. This video makes me wanna get an E9X M3. I really want an E46 M3, but test driving an E93 M3 brought me to a crossroads. I don't know what to get.

[@NoChaserNoChaser504]

The E92 is never a wrong choice, congrats 🍾

[@danielp8655]

We’ve had an 09 convertible with the dct for 10 years now. 55k miles. Yearly service and oil analysis and we’ve had ZERO issues. Compared to older bmw’s we had over the years this is the most reliable we’ve owned by far

[@LifeWithZach]

Congratulations bro! I’m looking at picking up an F10 M5 or F06 M6. V8 all the way

[@CarswithMiles]

F06 M6 is criminally underrated

[@kingjay8913]

i Have the gran coupe version try to get the ones after 15 with the eu6 injectors instead of eu5 there more reliable

[@Sickwitit18]

That MMI Pro is clutch! I've wanted one of these E92s or a C63 from like 2012/2016 or so but the infotainment systems have been a concern for me since ive gotten so used to using my car and phone so integratedly. This is a must for an E92, maybe even an F82 which IMO is one of the best looking cars on the road.

[@n2productions]

"Lube that tube up...pause..." had me flying xD

[@AutomotiveGrowthOperator]

I absolutely loved my E90 335d. I had to sell it when my eldest son was two, because we needed a larger car with our daughter on the way. My son must have loved that car, too, as he literally cried when the new owner drove it away, I must admit I welled up with him! 😭 I still look at them, and if I were in a position to buy again, I would go with the E90 M3. Fantastic video! Keep up the great work, and continue nurturing a strong community. 👍🏽

[@jovaneghtesadi1494]

Not one issue in the years I’ve had my E9x M3. I’d argue it’s actually more reliable than most other engines once the RB/TA is taken care of. The biggest issue is that it guzzles gas like no tomorrow!

[@CJKnowsTECH]

Nice ride, bro! I've been big fan of BMW's and most German whips. But that thing sounds mean. Naturally aspirated too. Nice pick bro.

[@1haitian1]

The snap for the wheels was funny as hell. Alright, I’m sold. I’m certainly a fan now 😂

[@GlennsCarCollection]

Congrats, I had an E90 M3 sedan manual, single hump, slicktop in Interlagos Blue for six years which is a long time for me. I couldn’t find a better car for the money. Enjoy!

[@owyobo]

I'm so happy to see the e92 M3 with you. That is one of the coolest looking cars. Super iconic just like the e46. I'd recommend to watch m539's videos on his e92 m3. Because of him I bought the e92 335i and what a car. If people can't afford the M3 variant (in EU they are very expensive) and want a lot of power and upgrade potential get yourself and n54 e92. They are so much fun. Just do your maintenance.

[@Bigtigerr4774]

Word of precaution/advice Miles, if you want to enjoy the s65 for as long as possible, do not just do the preventative maintenance that everybody talks about: Rod bearing as throttle actuators. Yes, they are important maintenance items, and should not be ignored, but there is another maintenance item which is arguably even more important on these engines. > Main bearings < Sreten from m539 explains the reason in very precise detail, as well as the guys from FCPeuro (tldr: since its a double-link timing chain, the tension exerted on the crank and main bearings under load often leads to these engines going through catastrophic failures caused by too tight tolerances between the main bearings and crank.) Some quality main bearings that provide more clearance will make sure the risk of a spun main bearing (or worst case a "bluetooth" crankshaft, iykyk) is reduced significantly and improve the life expectancy of the mighty s65 exponentially.

[@christopherdunye2876]

I have done steering wheels on the e9x too many times to count and that moment of relief at 30:05 is ALWAYS THE CASE.

[@averyhammonds9348]

That's a really nice e92, hope it's good to you! love my e93. On reliability, IDK, 111k miles, had fresh throttle body actuators on it when I got it at 80k, and I havent't done anything major. I did replace the motor mounts, and the fuel sending unit over the last 5 years. Evolve did bearings on a 160k e92 with original bearings on their channel, maybe it's hit or miss but well maintained s65's can last. Mine has been better than I expected. I really like the idea of mapping my DCT, but it's pretty responsive in the right stock mode, and great to shift. It's light on torque but really great to drive above 4k rpm. It's also a comfortable daily if you can forget about the gas milage.

[@gr330zhp]

I owned my E92 M3 ZCP for 10 years. Daily drove it for two of those years (including Maine’s harsh winters) and had ZERO issues in that time. Even replaced the rod bearings preventively at 64k miles and they had virtually zero wear. Sold it a year ago and I miss it very much. 😢

[@amcheung10]

Hell yeah! I currently have manual F87 M2 Comp and I'm coming up on 5 years of ownership, and I am still in love with it. An E90 330i is my daily driver though which is also a great car. My dad currently has an E46 M3 and that high-revving S54 is truly intoxicating, so I can only imagine how amazing the S65 is. The E9X M3 is actually the one M3 that I have little to no experience with, so I'm curious to see your videos on it!

[@yass123]

Best looking M3 ever. Can't believe the E9x is almost 20 years old 😅.

[@CarswithMiles]

She's getting up there! 👵🏾

[@alfyer5]

I wouldn’t say it’s unreliable. I own one of these and it’s had no issues at all. Mainly just maintenance and taking care of issues before they happen. With that said I’ve personally done most of the work. It’s been a pleasure to work with. Some of the maintenance items I’ve done: Rod bearings (done by a shop) and everything that could be done while in there. So motor mounts, gaskets etc. Valve cover gaskets and vanos caps (slon) Fuel injectors Spark plugs Oil filter housing gasket All fluids Brakes all around Mods I’ve done: Carbon plenum M spoiler Carbon mirror caps M splitters Carbon diffuser dinan xpipe Alcantara wheel Magnetic paddles Red start and m button Mr12volt unit Gts tune for the dct I had it wrapped but I just peeled it off Changed from 219 wheels to 359 Prob more things but I would probably have to think about it Overall this car checks all my boxes it’s so fun to drive and sometimes when you’ve had a bad day it’s just so nice to get behind the wheels and getaway

[@YazAMG]

Just seen an E90 M3 and I was in love with it again 😍. The E92 is the icing on the cake. Definitely a keeper.

[@ReworkArcade]

I’ve owned 3 e9x bmws and they just drive so well and like you said the heavier steering makes you feel so much more involved

I always drove Japanese platform cars, but I remember driving my older bro 335i coupe and I fell in love instantaneously.... I'm lookin to get my 1st bmw soon

[@joshhdtx]

The E9x M3s are extremely well balanced in all categories, from handling, to speed, to even reliability, given it's a low-torque motor you're not really stressing the drivetrain. I love that I can use every ounce on my car's capability while maintaining control and engaging with it's responsiveness. Newer BMWs just feel too artificial to me, and having multiple N54 and N55 cars eventually bored me since you can't truly use all of the car without spinning tires, breaking axles, and prematurely wearing motor mounts. Even with M3 control arms, koni struts, and LSD conversion, my E90 335i still was unpredictable.

[@SL9SH]

I finally got my unicorn this week! 08’ Schwarz 2 on fox red interiors, competition pack 6MT needs a little love but I’m used to the hard life with my N54 lol, man even on this state is amazing, they always said never meet your heroes but this time it was greater than I thought, I’m so in love, god has been good to me 🥲

[@TD-zc4zi]

I miss my E92. I like all your changes except for the grill and paint matched side markers. I did these changes too, but felt like it changed the overall vibe of my car from OEM plus to cheap. Eventually I swapped it back.

[@CarswithMiles]

I'm not not a fan of the chrome look on this car. So the black grilles are a better fit for me. But to each their own!

[@TD-zc4zi]

@@CarswithMiles Yeah I know where you’re coming from. It’s been interesting to see the evolution of trim on premium cars over the past couple decades. Going from black plastic to painted, chrome, satin chrome, black polished, eventually evolving to matte carbon fibre which just looks like the plastic we started with haha.

[@pervy_ODG]

2 years ago I had the choice between a F80 or e92. I went with the e92 m3 & it was the best decision I made. Coupe with a v8 accompanied by a DCT transmission rev up to 8300. It’s not a fast car but you have a lot of fun from the cold start to just listening to the gears shift on your commute. When you speed up a bit to overtake someone. It’s just everything you do you get rewarded with glorious engine sound. I’ve been daily driving it for the past 2 year and I promise you the N/A v8 is more reliable than any BMW with a turbo other than the b58/b48 obviously. Mine is coming up on 80k miles but recently been seeing people with having 200k+ & still going strong. As long you do your maintenance you will be alright

[@moeelmasry2331]

The insurance on that car was ridiculous in 2017 when I was thinking about buying one. I have a GREAT record, they wanted almost 400 a month for full coverage. A 911 or a Corvette, a 370z were all under 125 per month. Good luck 🍀🤞

[@AmoDiaLZ]

Honestly my dream car. I do love my e92 335i, but that e92 m3 has always called my name since I was young and saw the YT video of it drag racing a Bugatti. You can still make an e9/x m3 fast for less than people actually realize (I want to twin turbo an e92 m3 when I get it one day)

[@nickt5978]

found it funny when you said reliable if you drive them everyday. Mine has 170k miles and i’ve been daily driving it for some time now! it’s been my most reliable car yet

[@josephkelly4893]

18:15 should have dropped the back seats. I have fit 4 32 inch 4wd tyres and 4 17 inch alloys in the back (and front) of my e92 before.

[@efradiesel]

My S50B32 (Euro M3 E36 321hp) “exploded” with 157.000km (less than 100.000miles). A connecting rod cutted literally the block and the pan in two. I only could reuse or sell the valve train and keep some pistons and rods as souvenirs… not much more from the engine block. This problems with the Connecting rod bearings is something I never had to deal with any other high output engine of any brand I ever had in the last 20 years. My two Jaguars R (4.2 V8 supercharger) had been incredible reliable for more than 500.000km without having to open the engine for anything and changing oil every 16.000km. My Audi S8 (v8 360hp) is also 300.000km and 25 years old, and the engine is still as it came from the factory. Conclusion: BMW M and reliable, are not compatible words for my taste

[@dia9n0st1c]

This car and the rs6 avant are my dreams. good pick up

[@Boomsz123]

I have a m340i stage 2… nothing like an actual M. Straight line speed on public roads isn’t as fun as you’d think. I drive my abarth spider more than my bmw because I don’t want to get tickets it’s difficult to maintain speed limits. Also e92’s still look so good 🤤. I’m making the change soon.

It’s actually easier to release the airbag with a Philips head or a screwdriver with the tip cut off so it is essentially a rod with a handle.

new drinking game. take a shot every time miles says oem plus.

[@kharizmaaa]

Replaced my steering wheel last month. Start to finish you could theoretically do that in about 30-45 minutes. But that airbag situation alone took me an hour and a lot of tantrums before I figured out how to get it off consistently 😭 I felt that pain

Arguably the S63 in the F10 M5 is a hell of a lot more unreliable... but you can't go wrong with an E9X, great choice!

The whole rod bearing thing is just for peace mind. Not all e9x are time bombs. But the “actuators” is definitely a time bomb, even after changing them, you’re just resetting the clock 😅

American V8s are great for what they are. But I prefer the high-revving, more peaky nature of this motor. It's got a character that only a few American V8s have come close to

[@knighriderredux]

Congrats on the car, still have my E90 M3 after 15 years and still debating to part from it. I would have recommended the mr12volt over the MMI prime as it uses the fiber optic connection over having to run the Aux cable and the sound quality is amazing.

Just came to say that the S65 is far from being the most unreliable BMW V8 lol. That title goes to the N62, S62, N63 and S63. I absolutely love the E9X M3, I hope I can get it some day.

Miles, if it was between the transmission in your car or the manual for E92 M3? Personally for the E9X M cars i would choose to manual swap if i could.

[@CarswithMiles]

I think the DCT simply wakes the engine up more than the manual

[@leepicgaymer5464]

@@CarswithMiles I see, honestly I would own two if I could so that I could have both. 😅

I think you'd love a GT350, especially a GT350R. High revving (8250rpm) and a wonderful drivers car. Might be worth checking out with a review. Usually pleasantly surprises folks.

[@CarswithMiles]

I've heard nothing but good things. I'd definitely love to try one at some point.

My doppelgänger bought an e92! I also bought one and it’s been 2 months. It’s a frozen silver(1/40) comp package, DCT, and edc. My friends think we look alike 😂

[@CarswithMiles]

Congrats on your M3! And tell your friends we don't all look alike 🤝🏾

Question on the air freshener. Even with a well taken car of car the ac gets moldy? In my last few cars I’ve just kept them very clean and rather have no smell other than the oem new car smell. What are your thoughts on this?

[@CarswithMiles]

That isn't something I've really experienced in the past couple of E9X cars I've owned

[@Taino5.0]

@@CarswithMilesgotcha. Just always curious why some people do it even on a brand new car. I have a 16 Mustang GT and I’ve just thought about it when the AC has a moldy smell when you first start it. Other than that if it doesn’t have a smell I rather not add a smell.
