Here's the document that goes into greater detail on the SULEV warranty: www.kiesmotors...
-----
Hey Everyone,
In today's video, we're answering a huge question... what happened to the cheapest F30 in the country?!?! Well, as you may remember in our first video ( • WE BOUGHT THE CHEAPEST... , we bought a BMW F30 328i (n26) with the timing chain failure. We initially thought that we would do a cool motor swap on it, BUT we talked to our local dealer to see if they had any input on any quick fixes and found out about the SULEV warranty that got us a new engine, turbo, and radiator!
Keep in mind that the SULEV is EXTREMELY limited on what it covers and where you live, so this will not apply to everyone, but if you live in this area, you should certainly talk to your dealer about possible coverage for your car!
Here's the part number for the timing chain that typically fails: Build Date Up to 01/2015 - 11317584084
This timing chain is normally okay: Build Date After 01/2015 - 11318648732
If you're New Jersey, I highly recommend getting dealer work done by these guys: www.bmwofturne...

Not sure how you got so lucky Brian. My 2013 328i with 109K N26 engine just had the exact same thing happened. Vehicle is registered in Vermont so definitely has SULEV coverage. Towed it into dealer and BMW is denying coverage under SULEV because Oil Pump, Oil pump chain, Timing chain, timing chain guides are not among the parts listed, which makes since to me. I think maybe they hooked you up because you go there a lot or they wanted some free publicity on your RU-vid channel. For those of you who after watching this video are banking on keeping your N26 till the engine grenades from a timing chain related failure DON'T DO IT because you are going to be out of luck. Sell the car immediately if it is still running and count your blessings you dodged the bullet.

Great to know... but BMW should have helped out all N20 owners... they knew it was a problem, made an anemic gesture to extend the warranty to 70K or 8 years and many of us are left with a $3500 repair bill. It cost BMW my future business.

@armoblood7291 Год назад

If your bmw has a check engine light caused for whatever reason, bmw has to fix the root problem, at least in california. Check engine light is an automatic smog test failure, and sulev has a clause stating that they will make any repairs necessary to pass smog test. Thats why despite the timing chain not being on the parts list, it was fixed anyway

I have a problem with my chain. I found out that if you have a problem with your timing chain, BMW is still required to inspect it (one time) and repair it if it is within 100,000 miles, or within the year from the day the settlement was reached (February 2021). The settlement was reached in 2021 - so hurry if you have a problem. Read the final settlement terms, and don't let the customer service person turn you away without them fully understanding the extended warranty. Definitely mention the SULEV warranty. Thank you Brian!

@richardwhite2607 2 года назад

CJ, I just reviewed and watched your awesome comments on this free motor. I must thank you big time as I just came from my dealer and had to walk out with just the diagnostic fee because I simply can’t afford the cost of replacing the turbo which BMW told me the failure was. At a cost of 6K geez I thought that would be an engine, but just the turbo. Let me tell you I got a quick education. So I started researching to make this a diy project and save the labor cost. I’m not new to BMW by any means but with sever arthritis at age 64 it’s all I can do just to spin a wrench. . That cost at the dealer for replacing just the turbo alone is 6K. I hope I’m I taking in your info correctly when I assume they will replace the turbo only seeing that was listed in the warranty paperwork you scrolled through in this video. So in regards to those warranty paperwork notes, how do I download the information paperwork that you scrolled though and I must stress the emphasis on my turbo which was is my issue. I believe I meet all of the requirements. I’m in Connecticut and this state covers and rollbacks to 2007 as noted in your video of that paperwork And I do have the ultra low emissions ULEV. I hope to hear from you soon. Please and thank you.

Yes! If you have aftermarket parts, or alter the vehicles performance in any way, you void any manufacturer warranties. However, if you restore your vehicles configurations to OEM before you take the vehicle for servicing on any warranty it should be valid. Just don't take it to the dealer with the aftermarket adjustments.. 😁😉

What about if u have after market intake inlet are they still cover it?

@maciejstalmach 4 года назад

Bryan, can you just order whips like this in from other states and go to a Jersey dealer or does it have to have been originally sold in Jersey to be covered?

For those of us with N20s, what can we do to monitor for or prevent timing chain failure?

@FlexRogers 4 года назад

Change your timing chain tensioner - it will keep the chain tight - slack can often cause the gears to skip a tooth. Otherwise, it's really a matter of when, not if, for when the plastic in the guides will break down. The tensioner may keep it running for a long time but the only true fix is to replace the chain and guides with revised parts

@FallenAngel3746 4 года назад

Change your oil frequently, don’t redline a cold engine, turn off auto start/stop.

Flex Rogers how many miles should I swap the tensioner at? I just found the part for $7. Every 20-30k?

@CastroJordan 4 года назад

$75*

Check for the death whine. If you've got the whine then have it towed to the dealer ASAP. There have been a few cases of people having no warning at all. It's one of those things where ya just gotta hope and pray.

What if I have a used 2016 SULEV 328i xDrive which I believe came from NJ, but I live in a state that is not a California Emission State? Do I still under that coverage or not? Thanks!

@raulmartinez3484 4 года назад

That is determined on what state the car is currently registered.

@sdubu22 4 года назад

I spent around 3500 at dealer last year replacing timing chain, guides, etc. Due to whining noise in my n26 around 72k. Should of just kept driving and let it happen

I am dumbfounded by how poorly this has been handled by BMW. Clearly they have not taken responsibility and have worked hard to deter having to compensate their customers. I qualify and have been dealing with trying to get reimbursed for over 6 months. I have followed all the directions to a T. In addition when I called to ask if there was a recall they simply said no and conveniently failed to mention that there was a class action settlement. I had to research and find it on my own. Everyone in my family drives BMW and I have personally owned 4. I will never buy another one because of this experience. I have spent nearly 20k on a repair that was due to a faulty factor part. Totally Ridiculous. #BMW #BMWTimingChainModuleSettlement #dontbuybmw #bmwofnorthamerica

Question: If you take the car to a dealership in say Cali, but are from Colorado, would they still be forced to cover a defect?

@Pkmnrocks08 4 года назад

Mines build date is 5/19/16. N26 engine. So the bet is it's got plenty of spunk left! Only ~53k miles so far. Not in one of those states though unfortunately... I would love more videos regarding the N26 engine and insight if any on the newer ones like my '16. Most of the the timing issues and other issues the N20 had were "fixed" is what I find in forums but they are never verified or talked about much...
