What's The Most Reliable 3 Series BMW? (Find Out Here) 

please do on 5 series too!

My e30 was dead reliable and very cheap to upkeep. The original clutch slave cylinder from 1987 did go out back in 2015 but the oe sachs replacement only costed my $11 on Rock Auto. Other than that the engine was never touched except for routine maintenance. I did change the timing belt as a precaution since I did get it used. Loved that car. Never left me stranded the entire 14 years I owned it.

BMW Reliability after 2020 has picked up a lot!! Now they are really doing good on consumer reports

I love the channel. I still miss having not my '07 328i E92. It was very enjoyable to drive. The only problem I had with it was that the starter went out on it. Luckily it was covered my the dealer warranty. I would still like to have another one, because I so enjoyed driving it.

I have 2015 328i with 171000 miles. Regular maintenance being done on that so far good. Although did change rotators, break pads , belt about year ago. Running like a tank i put about 22k miles every year.

Just got a 2024 M340i rwd in black sapphire and is my 1st time owning a BMW. It’s got the shadowline trim which is absolutely beautiful! It’s got the mild hybrid drivetrain coupled with the 8 speed transmission. Love this car!

Shout out for the E46 M3! I’m still loving my 02 convertible, I’m second owner since 08. 6spd manual still with original clutch ❤️

2011 bmw 328i e92 n51 coupe - now 165k. Its was a disaster to maintain and crazy expensive. Had to do most repairs myself to reduce expenses. But beautiful car great ride!

I have a ‘22 330i xdrive. My first BMW. Happy with its performance so far.

I own a 2002 e46 M3 and up to this day I can’t seem to find a suitable replacement for it. Parked right next to my m3 is my Honda s2000. They don’t make ‘em like they used to! Keeping them both for life 👍🏻

Can do a video about the best bmw X5 model to buy.

Great videos you put out so ✔️ I’m subscribed. What’s your opinion or experience on the 2018 330i?

What a great community you've created, on all your channels...i don't need to relive my X1 story in this comment, still feels like a got a two piece, one to the chin and one in the gut...lol ✌️💚

The M54B30 might be the most overlooked BMW engine ever. It is quite a shame too. With 228-235hp and roughly 220ft-lb of torque, it is a sweet little motor. I have a 2001 Z3 3.0i with the M54 motor and after over 100,000 miles the car doesn’t ask me for anything but an oil change every couple thousand miles.

Maybe I’m just lucky, but my 2011 E90 inline 6 bought new has been the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. Replaced the battery once and the ignition coils; but mainly just glues, rubber window trim and a rear light wire giving out with age. Easy and cheap to fix.

My 2018 320i has 100k miles. Most mechanically reliable car Iv’e ever owned. Can’t sat that about my Honda CRV before it. Lots of little problems every year.

Currently shopping for a new car and hopping in between the Germans while noticing the best build quality over at BMW's side. Is the base model 318i also reliable and the chassy for 10+ years?

I would like you to say something about the S58 engine.

I absolutely love my 2006 BMW 325i.

Looking at a 2007/8 328i. Is it any good?

So many things wrong he said, E36 M3s never had an M5x engine, the M3s had either an S50 or S52 , all M5x engines were non M engines. In the USA all E36s after 96 were OBD II, all Euro E36s are OBD1. In the USA a 6MT was NEVER offered for the E36 chassis only a 5MT.

I had a 1988 325is was the best car I’ve ever owned. I drove it for 18 years and went 250,000 miles.

i have a 328 xdrive 2009 its say Ulev under the hood they say its better than the Sulev engine thats thrue ? ?

Is a 2019 320i part of the G20 series? Is this particular model recommended if looking for a reliable car? Thanks for any feedback

Nice video

Had a 2017 330xi. Still sad to date i sold it. Hoping to get a 2021 soon

Are xdrive's vs rwd reliable?

I’ve had BMWs for over 25 years which encompasses two E30s 325i E28 three E46s E34 E39 E31 850i F20 and my current E89 and in all this time I’ve only suffered one worn out power steering pump (E46) top end rebuild E30, water pump E34 apart from that regular servicing, not bad for over 25 years and idiots on the web keep complaining about BMW reliability. I usually always go for the 6 cylinder power plants, my next will be something with the B58 or a M car or maybe change altogether and switch over to Porsche! Note in this time I’ve also had Japanese cars too and they have not been without fault either, auto gearbox issues, blown head gaskets, big end bearings etc.

Can you please do a video on newer Mercedes(18-2023) mainly interested in the S,E and c class.

I have a 2016 x4 m40i i like your opinion on it please.

Which cars have b58 since Supra has this engine , bmw cars with same engine must be reliable . What are thoughts on newer m2 and m4 ( last 5 years)

What a about the F30? Did you forget that model or did you skip it on purpose?

Have you done a video like this for the five series?

Would you recommend the BMW F30 340i in line or long road reliability because I | Toyota owner I want to change to a BMW F30 3401. Is it as reliable as a Toyota or not? This means that it can withstand daily driving without turbo, electrical, or transmission malfunctions. What is your advice regarding the reliability of the car? Because my hobby is that I researched and they said that Lexus is for permanent purchase and BMW is for rent, and many complained and said that it cannot handle travel or long distances, and if it drives more than 200,000 miles, it will die. What is your advice regarding the reliability of the car?

My BMW 330d E91 2010 Touring is Ok. I hope that the engine will last for some mor years. It’s a little bit old car now. But I like it.

E46 is a simple car and well build, 325, 328 & 330 loved the front and the wheels, my favorite was the E30 but that’s me am a ‘Old School’ These cars show as how making a simple cars will last a long time, not these new one that are full of technology that when they break down it cost you a ‘Arm & a Leg’ to fix and to much plastic.

I love the E30 best, classic shape, and nice simple, reliable mechanics.

So baaically any 328i or 330xi is good but the 335 i need to stay away from because i still wanna be quick but not chasing problems

I have a plan. Please tell me if it's good or bad. Buy an E90 N54 for roughly $5-10k. Reserve another $10k to make it reliable (by swapping old plastic parts with robust aluminum aftermarket parts), make it cool lookin (wheels, paint, etc), and increase performance (400 hp, nothing crazy). So spend $15-20k total, which is still waaaaay cheaper than anything 5yrs old or younger. What do you think? P.S. I would do this with an N52, but you can't get any significant power gains unless you install a turbo or super charger, which costs $5-7k and would jeopardize its reliability, so you may as well have just gotten an N54 instead.

My BMW 2020 330i is very reliable almost 50k miles ❤

no hellcats or coyotes .. like your videos 👍

Is a 2006 325i e90 reliable, and good

Cool i have a 328i with the inline 6

I’m based in South Africa and have been using 320d for Uber now I’m thinking of buying M340 2022 model for Uber. Is this advisable?

That G20 is a masterpiece ♥️

The 128 and z3 and 4 are great engines

Are the N51 engines any good?

my M340i is the best car I ever bought. No regrets.

planning for e92 for my first car

The E46 3 Series did have one scary problem and that's the rear subframe cracking. Before you buy any E46 3 Series make sure the rear subframe is not cracked. Aside from the rear subframe cracking and the weak air conditioning the E46 3 Series car overall is pretty solid.

The e90 Clean

I want to know about 2007 325i coup e92 naturally aspirated automatic

Buy a 2011-2012 E90 NA or turbod and live happily

What about the 2013 bmw. 3 series 328i ? Is it a good car?

Are 2017 330i’s reliable?

I think that the most reliable BMW is the E36 from 1992 to 1999, because the newer ones are just problematic. Thanks.

The 340i has been surprisingly RELIABLE for me.

G20 owner love it ❤

What do you thanks of the F30 2017 with b48 engine?? In about to buy it

what about my n55 e90 😢

I have a 2003 Z4 M54B30 over 200,000 miles on it. Its my daily. Love that thing but parts are very $$$$$$$$$.

what happen to the f30 ?

2.0 TDI engine in the 3 series has been the most reliable powerplant, better than any of the gas engines.

Yeah nah. F-Series onward do feel quite dead on the steering. thus no ultimate driving machine. i have a 335d e92 that never had any big issues. big factor on reliability is how you treat those vehicles. if you push them when still cold, they will drain your pocket. doesn‘t matter if its a M57 or B58.

I adore my E92, sweet sweet N52 straight six.

so the n20 is trash ?

E46 automatic transmission problems.

A reasonable maintained e36 will absolutely outlast ANY bmw made after 2000. Puposedfully made to breakdown in order to support the business model of ridiculously priced maintenance as the majority of their profits.

NFSMW BMW M3 is the best

The most reliable BMW is the rental one. When it breaks it's not on you

bmw 328 i hybrdd need bew hybed bateries sîkñ

I babied my e46 back in the day. It was still the least reliable car I ever owned.

No F30? It probably is better than the E90.

What a disgraceful E46 was chosen for this vid !

dad bmw m 3 m 6 5 sieed stick very relbel

I thought this video was about the best

81000 mupes 11 years

I had a 2004 325i sooooo uncomfortable. It was in 2006 and I was 18 I thought I was doing something 🤣.

Just b58. Anything that ends with 40i. No need to watch anymore lol

The 2019 is the most reliable

bmw

Just take a Bimmer, any Bimmer, including the Mini for a wheel alignment.ooops, cant do it on a regular Alignment Machine. You MUST get it done at a BMW Service Center (aka: the Rip-Off zone). So, even reliable versions will suck your wallet dry. Been there, done that.

The most reliable 3 Series is a 230i

save us $275 of gas

Calling any E90 a reliable car is the biggest lie ever told in automotive history

honestly, if I were to buy a luxury vehicle such as a BMW, I'd just lease them. Putting BMW and reliable in the same sentence is a joke.

3³5 54⁰

E90 reliable 😂

The most reliable 3 series BMW, or any BMW for that matter, which will cost you nothing in service and repairs, is the BMW you leave in the showroom or on the pre-owned lot..... and buy a Toyota instead. Same with Mercedes and any German abortion on wheels. Leave them where you find them.
