Hey man ! Big fan on RU-vid . Just wanted to run something by you For my MK5 Supra. I swapped the factory turbo for a pure 800 and a light lit up saying “engine oil status unknown please make appointment for dealer” , is that normal? or would I need to take in the car again to get it checked out? I reviewed the oil levels on the car and it is saying that they are good so I’m just trying to get your opinion/take on it since you have way more experience with the engine than I do. Thank you in advance!

One question I always had was what effect switching back and forth between sport and comfort can do to the car? Especially with mppsk, sport mode and all the burbles and unburnt fuel, especially if you switch back and forth a lot on a drive, is that bad for the car? Or even letting off gas with high revs and burbles?

@andrewb229 Год назад
I had a Q50 before unfortunately totaling it and moving on to a F30 340i. BMW hands down wins in driving experience, interior, and overall quality. However I cannot speak on reliability. My Q50 was totaled at 38k due to metal shards mixed in the oil. It was my fault as I hit a curb and broke the oil pan, which caused metal to go into the cylinders and turbos. Other than that mine had a faulty AC compressor from factory, something about it being misaligned on 2016/2017 models from factory. Needed replacement at 32k.

@kern417 This comment is in regards to your "A/C Blowing Warm in your 340i/Supra? Check this First! - B58 Common Issues" Video Great video and much appreciated! I actually discovered this on my own after tinkering under the hood after a mechanic told me my compressor needs to be replaced... (not spending 2500 without being certain that was the issue). Found out the small res was bone dry, filled it, and ac started blowing icicles again. Fast forward a year and my ac is blowing hot air again... at some point during the winter the res went bone dry again (dont know how long i was driving with it like that). I topped it off with coolant and unfortunately this did not fix the problem. I brought the car to a mechanic and explained everything i know. They insist the compressor is bad but again i want to be certain before i spend the money. Any ideas what the issue could be and where/ what i can check to diagnose?

I currently have a gen 1, and for someone who is always worried and checking up on the car everyday it’s a nightmare past 60k miles. In the past month alone I have found many small problems that needed to be addressed. Though like I said I take fixing my cars to an extreme and purposely look for small problems. Also do a lot of preventative maintenance. If you’re an average owner and just take the car to the d(st)ealership you would love both generations- With warranty of course.. Gen 2 seems more reliable from what I have seen though.

@@neilquinn Entire suspension pretty much needs a overhaul at 69k miles, did the front control arms at 65k. There is a small thrust bushing on the steering rack that plagues all F series cars. It causes a knock sound near the right wheel whenever you hit bumps. My belt and tensioner went out prematurely/earlier than expected. My rear differential seals somehow failed at 55k, leaked a lot of fluid. Parking brake clips broke, also something that while small plagues every F series car. Waterpump went out twice on the car (once for previous owner, once for me.) Verified that with carfax report. Now apparently I have a open circuit in my fuel system/fuel rail pressure modules. And from what I have heard online I will most likely be changing my injectors before 90-100k if I even keep the car till that point. First year of ownership was great, 0 problems and the car ran amazing. Once the first problem arose, it’s been nothing but more problems one after the other, and in quick succession. Might I add that my outside temperature sensor has also just failed. I could have included the PCV membrane failing as well, but thats extremely common on gen 1’s.

Sounds like copium to be honest; Toyota guys who can't accept that BMW just made the Supra engine flat-out. So the Supra B58 is better, of course, because Toyota engineers installed the rod bearings and torqued down the cylinder heads.
