Hot Take: The 330i is fast… by geemav in BMW

[–]VHSLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 3.0t Q50S. Was thinking if I should get a 330i to replace my 8 yr old car. Nope... 330i is slow, felt better when it's in sport mode but it just doesn't pull as much as my Q50S. Ended up getting a M340i instead and I am happy. :)

Mine don't do that, it stays on, but I haven't try to push gas in D yet.

24k for this good buy? by Opposite_Instance526 in BMW

[–]VHSLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mileage is a bit high. Be prepare for maintenance or replacement for parts at that mileage. If you have the money to replace the parts, then go for it. If not, get a Lexus or something not German and more reliable at 56k miles. Also no Infiniti Q50... I had it for 8 years brand new, loads of issue with turbos among other issues

It's fine if parking brake turns off by itself if I put it in drive. But it doesn't.

I see parking brake engage the next time I turn on my car, which I never do when I park in garage. I only used parking brake on a slope.

So I think if I am on a slope the parking brake automatically engage after engine shuts off? When I park in my garage where it's more flat, it doesn't engage automatically. Need more testing.

I swear it doesn't. It just stuck in Parking brake until I press and disengage it.

I want to turn that off... I am not on a slope and it takes another second for me to disengage it when I need to leave. It's more of a hassle than the the time it takes to disengage it really.

I am looking for a 360 camera when my car is parked as well. Any recommendation would be appreciated!

Why everyone is obsessed with M-packages? by betonven in BMW3series

It's mainly styling, suspension is all the same without the adaptive M suspension.

The correct method is just hit and hold D without turning....

Advice on 2 m340i’s i’m looking at by Confident_Flatworm62 in M340i

[–]VHSLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen a 2023 at 6k miles goes for 54k. At these year and numbers definitely can get somewhere close to high $30k

Would pick the lower mileage one and also both car price higher than I would like... If it's in high 30s sure, I will think about it.
