There’s a 2015 x1 25i for about 3k more than the x3 35i we’re going to look at. I guess the b48 is still to new to reveal any secrets. Which is a good thing in my case haha.
-
A friend has one and has a good run. He mentioned the dealer he bought it from did the “blue” delete and got more “performance” iirc they’re basically a 40d with the adBlue emissions crap?

It’s mainly for wife but i’ll be using it a fair bit. We’re also considering the f48 x1 with the 25i b48 lump.

In the market for one. Leaning towards an N55 equipped model. Aside from usual maintenance and oil leaks are these generally pretty good?
-
Gave it a good clean and a coat of paint sealant.

bmw underbody rust inhibitors aka fluid leaks are pretty common. If you smell raw fuel that is not good and shouldn’t be driven. Best take it to a mechanic.

Ah that sucks! Does it look repairable?

AA’s classic cover is good. No kms restrictions.

Have to lean towards moronic. The e36 328i @The H. Behemoth sold to a friend @LemonHunter had one particularly interesting modification carried out. That was a VTA catch can spraying oil droplets over the front suspension brakes. The engine (which had low compression) also showed signs of "quality" workmanship too. -
Engine in German is Motor. Could be a proper one considering BMW production in China is massive ? Probably not though.

Iirc TC lockup that varied in % based on load, speed etc was introduced on the m54b30 flavour of 5hp19.

I think the last time i priced up a DMF delivered from Rockauto it was $1k nzd.

Yep, a spotlight on the cooling system time. Pressure test will help diagnose too.

Yeah in that gif at least one idiot got smashed by the bed of the ute as it rolled.

Friggin awesome thread! -
Have seen em parked on the shoulder before. And of all times, van gets nailed during lockdown when there’s sfa traffic…Bad luck!
-
Don’t think the van was parked where it goes from 3 to 2 lanes. Looks like it was parked on the 2 lane down hill section shoulder which is the best, but obviously not in this case, place to catch speeders on sh18. Maybe was parked initially under the bridge, or possibly before as the van took a big hit.

Have been using this outfit for about 6 years now. Great service.
-
maybe a skinnier tyre on the rear helps combat the wagons tendency to understeer more than the sedan ?
-
I think @E30 325i Rag-Top sorted this out for you now @M3AN
