Bmw B47 Reliability 2019......It Makes The Power But Will It Break The Chain ?? F36 420D Gran Coupe 

445,000km??!

James H yes, use it as a taxi

@@04087140 I understand by 445k km you would have done some repairs and maintenance. But what was your biggest and unexpected repair?

James H it hasent had any big expensies, i have change egr valve, but that was guarantijob

Pulvis Hansen original turbo?

So even in b47.the chain can still fails?

are you happy with the engine im about to get a 425d

b47 520D needs to change the timing chain ??!

did you change the chain?

@Scot Bratley How often do you change your oil? No oil leaks, no cleaning of intake manifold due to carbon buildup, no major issues? Still running strong after one year? How much mileage do you have at the moment? Do you have B47?

Hi I just got a 2016 F10. Bmw 520d for taxi as well do you know when timing chain should be changed and have you changed it yet and what mileage thanks

@@wusaf250 I use a b47 as a taxi , and there isnt really any problems with timing chains snapping on these , that's an old b47 problem , so dont need to get it changed, just regular oil changes and it should last life of car imo

Keep doing this andengine will probably last 300k

Sry, what do you mean "have to..."? Is that some tuning thing and i have to do this by myself or it has to be done by garantijob?

@@Sst886 No from BMW they Called Back all the Models with this Problem Here in Germany. Maybe Worldwide. Check it in next BMW Shop.

@@Delikanli67k thanks!

Merhaba. BMW şubesini benim mi arayıp randevu almam gerekiyor acaba? Aracım 2017 F48 18d. Bilginiz var mı? Selamlar

Problems on these cars are going to be all electronic related nothing else believe me on that mine already has electric issues and it’s brand new

BMW Doctor What electric issues? :(

Forgot to mention it is a tourer estate

Is this the same b47 engine?

@@fangus44 yes

Good 👍

how do you pass the emission test by deleting dpf ??

I’ve got same car as you and was thinking to do same thing as you. I have already the EGR kit to delete it completely and wanted to run as well straight exhaust with 4 tips then custom map. How is yours doing with stage 2 ? Running well or it bit different?

Are you trying to comfort yourself, mate? I suppose you have chaned your mind after a year, hahahaa

@@thetruthwillsetyoufree4781 Why would I do that, I don't have one?.. No skin in the game here 😂 Just look at the rest of the comments confirming how well built they are... Think you're on your own there matey, sorry!

the auto is even better on fuel than the manual, maybe yours has a different problem

@@eminem2not really. On N47 manual I had 5.2l. On B47 automatic, it says 6.0l

Hi, can you please tell me if you had any problems with it because I found a 420D 2016 with 64k company car with full bmw service. Thanks

Marian Nistor I have 175k km on mine. Also B47; was thinking changing the chain the next two months, now i don't really know if i should right now. Sounds and runs awesome. Great car.

when u drive the 420d slow in a parking lot area, and release the gas just before it shifts to gear 2 or a little after it is in second gear, does the car engine break alot. Do you get the sensation of the car slowing down more than you want it to?

lol trust me

yes mate these cars are great and thrilling and I wouldnt expect it any less typical problem that has always had bmws the ego cooler because there making them so strict on emissions the EGR cant handle it

The DPFs last for a very long time on these modern BMWs, on the 1.5 I3, 2.0 I4 (This engine shown here and the engine in your 520d) and the 3.0 I6. The AdBlue system, which BMW calls 'BluePerformance' is also very reliable. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to the DPF (and the AdBlue system if it is equipped with it) on these beautiful engines.

do you change timing chain?

Did it turn out to be anything to do the EGR cooler?, I had a letter saying they are recalling these models to replace the EGR and to look out for loss of power, fumes and overheating

Louis Patroons watch out oil pressure blockage lead to my engine blowing up big end shattered

diff oil at 100k miles

I would buy a petrol mate trust me buying a diesel if you only do that will clog the DPF even tho the new diesels are a lot better these are mainly to be used on motorway and the stop start technology will only kill your engine and starter motor doing a lot of stop start take my word for your driving if you don’t do motorway much and mostly open roads and mostly city get a petrol and once you hit open roads you can really open up the petrol as there turbo charged and continue to make power throughout the whole Rev range where diesel doesn’t it makes the power low down and that’s it really diesel is for towing come top end the power isn’t there mate

Hi doc . I bought BMW F10 525D N47D20 automatic gearbox but the enigine is damaged I would like to change it by another one is B47 or N57D30 so which one is reliable N57 or B47? and the both don t need any change or modification durant the swap or putting the engine?

Does your dads car use oil every 1k miles at all

@@truckertom29 Not really no

Did it ever cause a problem?

Spoke too soon already faulty o2 sensor 😀😀

@@MrJackoable was it expensive ? wha do you think about the enigne now

Nah mate your the only person who’s asked for that video mate I would need at least 5k people asking me for it to be worth it and it’s only worth it for the EU people and Eu countries pay me nothing so it’s not worth it for me if it was USA people asking me now that would be different as in paid more for them Eu pays crap that’s why me stop do diesels no more diesels for my channel

@@BMWDoctor Asked by 5k people!? You can't get even 5k views!

Is that so I think you need to check out my other videos and just like idiots like you view this many others will come along and bring it to 5k if not over when these engines start going bang and having problems 😁

@@BMWDoctor best reply ever mate.

@@BMWDoctorI’m interested as well in removing egr and Dpf, egr been checked by dealer in Essex, all good, two weeks later blows and had coolant in my exhaust and the car was accelerating itself. Now has been replaced by another dealer under recall but I can hear the engine runs differently and not in a good way. So kinda yeah now I’m bit scared of another blow . And it warms up roughly in 10 miles but when is cold now it’s sounds like an old tractor… On Ista is all good and sound. Oh yeah, now I’ve got my exhaust tips black and bumper getting smoked, removed few bits of Dpf charcoal from exhaust because I’ve heard an rattling sound on it and did not know what it is😢

Any of you wondering about noise like I was, every since I bought the car @ 20,000 miles back in 2019. It’s been a noisy tappity motor.

@@PAINtballingxghillie original timing chain?

Its a bit of a tricky one really as BMW aren't going to make their intervals 'Too long' they are long for a reason, the oil is 'Long Life' but personally I would be changing it at half that mileage. It is a strangely long service interval compared to the usual 10-12k/1 year, I wonder what a master tech would say if you asked them about it.

It works with ethernet cable or something like that

Cheers mate

My understanding is that as of upgrade to the current version (B47TÜ1) these engines are now belt cam.

Yes, you are correct, the B37/B47/B57 will most likely be BMW's last line up of diesel engines. It's really sad considering that they are the definitely the best diesels on the market. The only other diesels that come even close to them is Mercedes' OM654 2.0 inline 4 diesel and the OM656 3.0 inline 6 which are immensely smooth diesels, just like the current BMW diesels. In 2017 they added an SCR catalyst with AdBlue, which BMW call BluePerformance. They also changed it from a single-turbo to a twin-turbo system. My 2017 320d M-Sport Plus has this updated engine, the B47TU1. The power figures remained the same but the torque band was stronger for the '20d' models (meaning that full torque, 400nm of which lasted for longer in the rev band, creating a nicer driving experience). We've had it from day one. Such an amazing car and a joy to drive. 66238mi now, still surprises me how we've put up that much mileage, I still remember it being on 17 miles. Probably will change it soon with a new 320d. Always used to have petrol 6 cylinder BMWs (and one V8 X5, 2005) but this amazing engine sold me over on diesel BMWs.

Any news on what fixed this fault as I have that same fault code 290B00??

Problems problems and more problems as I said yet people say I don’t know what I’m talking about

Is the car still under warranty to be claimed. Are u using a 520d 2016

there are different injectors and different turbo. 218d can be mapped safely to ~190hp

Take it out. Its a 10 min job clean it and dissmantle little motor clean inside there and use white spray lube from wurth. It has done the trick for me.
