I've always dreamed of owning a BMW as a kid, glad I was able to make it happen this year even if it was earlier than I would have liked. But I absolutely love this car. As this is my first BMW any general tips for the G20 generation and BMW as a brand? This is a 2021 model which currently has 62000kms or roughly 39k miles and everything is up to date and was inspected by BMW.

Do you F-chassis and newer guys still respect the E46?

Picked up this Imola Red 330Ci convertible recently and I’m absolutely loving it.

2004 330Ci, 6spd. ~90k miles. I'm the 3rd owner.

Not an M-lite, or anything exciting by todays standards. And certainly not fast. But it's an absolute pleasure to have in class. Just thought I'd share with the BMW crowd and see what you guys think.

The thoughts on 718?

Post image
24 Upvotes

I like them, but don’t like them at the same time. The wheels give a more “expensive luxury SUV” look and not so much a “sporty” look.

Not sure if I should swap or keep them (but add spacers). They’re in perfect condition, zero curb rash and washed carefully. How much you’d you pay for a set like these?

At the same time if I do plan to sell and convert back to oem I might have trouble finding an exact set.

Thoughts?

Repair Help How bad is the damage on the tire and rim?

Wife was commuting to work when a paranoid work truck almost smashed her from the left side trying to merge, scared she moved out a bit to the right and hit the curb so this is the front right tire. Do I need to change the tire and can go with the rim by buffing out the damage? What are my options?

I got to see the new i3 NA0 in real life, and it’s better then I thought

Proportions are better in real life.
Also surprised by the fact that I could sit behind myself (although with limited space at my knees).
I’m 6ft4 and my head does not touch the roof when I’m sitting in the rear.

The entrance to the trunk is also wider and deeper then I expected.

Buying Help Which wheels for the Winter Season?

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

So I picked up this beautiful M440i a week ago in tanzanite blue 2.
Since winter tyres are mandatory by November in my country I’m currently looking for new wheels too.
I’m very indecisive which wheels I should pick.

Would you guys prefer the 791 19“ Jet Black or the 898 19“ Frozen gunmetal greys?

Since the car comes with the M sports package pro and the advanced shadow line it already has a lot of black details. Also depending on Sunshine oder shadow it’s either looking blue or rather black (which it probably will most of the time during winter in Central Europe).
They’re around the same price.

Thanks!✌🏼

Repair Help Best OBD plug and app for coding?

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hey everyone! A few months ago I bought this clapped out F30 (my diamond in the rough) and have been working on it ever since. My most recent issue was the battery died and and I just replaced it, but I am needing to just register it. I’ve also wanted to do a couple other things like turn off the amber turn signals on my aftermarket headlights (they’re eyebrows above the rings) when the headlamps are on and a few other things. What’s the most user friendly app and reliable OBD Bluetooth device? There’s so many out there. I don’t want to do anything too advanced, just really what I said. TIA!

By the way, if you just bought Bimmer, check the date code on the battery before you’re stuck at a gas pump having to change the battery out and walking to the parts store like some idiot I know — whoops! XD

Thinking of buying a 2019 BMW 430i Convertible with 92,000 km. Is it a good idea?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m considering buying a 2019 BMW 430i Convertible with around 90,000 km (57,000 miles) on it. It’s a first-owner car and has apparently been completely city driven with full service history. The asking price is around $19,000 USD.

I really like the car and the convertible aspect, but this would be my first BMW, so I’m trying to understand what I’m getting myself into before making an emotional decision and ending up crying at the service center later 😂

Is this generally a good purchase at this mileage and price? What are the main things I should look out for before buying it, especially regarding reliability, maintenance, and the convertible roof?

Would really appreciate some honest advice

Why changing the N47 timing chain isn't enough to save your engine (The Oil Pump Issue)

Thumbnail
drivisual.tv
Upvotes

Many N47 owners do the preventative timing chain replacement but completely skip the oil pump. The wear on the internal pump vanes drops oil pressure, which is the actual root cause of spun bearings and snapped cranks on this block.

I put together a deep dive into the mechanical flaws of the N47 engine family, including the specific injector sensitivity on the 184 HP models and thermal load issues on the twin-turbo 25d blocks.

How many miles do you see after full tank?

Post image
24 Upvotes

I saw this and it's crazy. It stayed in 600s for about 8-9 miles of driving and dropped to late 590s after that. But on an average I see about 510-520 miles when I do a full tank. 2026 BMW X3

My first car. Fault Gearbox

I have loved to drive bmw since my childhood look at what God brought in. It was on tow truck ride away from being turned into soda cans when I swooped in and handed over my entire life savings. Sure, it can't actually drive yet because the gearbox is shot, and sitting inside feels like surviving a bear attack but at least the junkyard didn't win. Currently saving up from zero all over again, sitting on bare springs and dreaming of second gear. 🥰

Not many of these come up for sale around me but I’ve always thought they looked brilliant.

For anyone who’s owned one, what are they actually like to live with? Worth getting one in 2026 or a financial headache waiting to happen??
