I have a 2015 328i that I’m currently using because my 2017 430i is leaking coolant. The 328i was my late fathers, I blew the transmission on it, my sister has involved the car in multiple accidents. I want to restore the car to its original potential so it can be used by my mom or myself. Looking at videos so I can get ideas.

@@AudriakasIt was just something the engineer had on his phone. It wasnt on youtube. But you can take a BMW in for a health check at a dealership, it doesnt cost much if not free. They will make a video and send it to you of the recommendations and condition of the vehicle. You can also test the play in the chain yourself. Although personally I would avoid listening to them on brakes and tires and trivial things like that. They will charge you an arm and a leg for work and theres nothing unique about what they do. In fact im not a fan of the Bridgestone tires they recommend. I prefer the cheaper continentals from Les Schwab.

My foreman said no. Generally, the European will buy a new BMW 3 series and use them for 5 years only. That's the reason why many spare part including the engine part are made of hard plastic. With a such powerful turbo engine, the hard plastic part will be spoiled easily. In my opinion, this is not worth as you pay so much of money for hard plastic.

If a car brand boasting luxury performance and lavishness gets issues with broken hoses, bad turbos, weak seals, then it's not built right, plastic parts in a warm environment under the hood, The brand in that sense is making profit because people just simply buy it for the name, logo, style and cult. That brand is hardly concerned about making a reliable machine. They know people's emotions very well

This is a good car if you're going to be on top of the maintenance. Consistently taking it in every 5k miles and able to afford $500-1000+ maintenance fees when ever you have to replace something. This is the car i have 2013 328i (Sport Package.) Had it for 7 years. Took it in for maintenance every 5k, oil/filters. Up to 162k i had to replace spark plugs, coils, gas tank, transmission service, and computer. After 162k timing chain/guides, spark plugs, valve cover, tank fuel pump and fuel pump control unit. All in the same month. Set me back about $6k in repairs. Put money aside if you plan on getting one.
