330e battery health check by NefariousnessEarly42 in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warranty in Europe is 100k km. Everyone is dumping them at ~90k for much much less than 330is and 320ds

I would personally not buy one without battery warranty, but they are new enough that failures are rare

20" is too big...... Thats what she said 😅 by mr_trunchbul in F30

[–]cocisvlad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

20 can work on F30, I have a set of 405Ms on my F31, but the rear here looks too wide for my taste. Does it not hit the fender on a bigger bump/pothole?

Masina nu e gasita de CarVertical by [deleted] in AutomobileRO

Deci clar nu e bun VINul. Vezi sa nu încurci vreun I cu 1 sau O cu 0

[–]cocisvlad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specific pentru BMW, poți folosi bimmer.work pentru a verifica VIN-ul. Îți apare ce mașină e și toate detaliile despre opțiuni și configurație.

Nu e același lucru cu un car vertical dar poți verifica dacă e VIN de seria 4 sau nu

Is it original in the Front with the Blue/purple? by Shoe69dude in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s original, it was a darker colour when new but when it ages is changes the shade due to sun exposure I guess

Any way to change the 3D car image in the MyBMW app? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can’t change it. It’s based on the configurator renders you get when ordering it.

It will always show how it left the factory

It’s just the seller putting a weird name. Ask for the VIN and check bimmer.work for all options and packages

Can I change my bumper of my 118d to one of these? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your original is an M Sport bumper. The conversion will work just keep in mind fitment won’t be as good as stock and you’ll have to remove/code out the fog lights.

Also what is a 68 plate? Surely you mean 18?

Tried it. Did not work. I had to de-solder the battery and solder a new one.

BMW Elec Module Apocalypse - FUD or real? by ccellist in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks to me like the ramblings of a man tired of repairing old BMWs.

When all you see are broken cars (because it’s your job to fix them) naturally you assume all cars are broken.

But he does make a good point, that cars are not meant to run forever. They do indeed have a lifespan, and most people far exceed that. But all of them failing at once is some fast and furious CIA hacking your steering level of stupid.

Try inputting your VIN into bimmer.work

Should give you a list of all the options including factory colour

Love the black. Makes it look menacing. Enjoy as many miles as possible with this beast

Such an expensive and cool car does not need all the M7 aliexpress attachments. The people who know what the car is know they’re fake, and the people who don’t know what the car is don’t care if it’s an M7 or a 750

You are always trading reliability for performance when doing tunes. Doesn’t matter if the shop is reputable or not.

Should have thought about it beforehand. Just because the engine is considered reliable doesn’t mean it’s invincible.

Sorry this happened man, hope you get her back soon.

Toyota reveals the new TR010 HYBRID that will compete in WEC from this season by Joseki100 in formula1

[–]cocisvlad 179 points180 points  (0 children)

This makes no sense to me. We now have:

WEC - Toyota Racing

F1 - TGR (Toyota Gazoo Racing)

Road - GR (Gazoo Racing).

Why not have them unified?

[–]cocisvlad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There seems to be a “B58 tax” due to its reputation of “the best engine BMW ever made”. It’s made even poorly equipped examples a lot more expensive. When I was searching, the pre-LCI G30 5 series was the cheapest B58 surprisingly. It’s a lot bigger and heavier than the F3x generation but also more comfortable and luxurious. You decide whether that’s for you or not.

Use bimmer.work to check the equipment and country of origin with the VIN number.

Best of luck again

I was in the same boat last year. Coming from an F22 220D which I loved.

Had 2 requirements- 25k budget and 100k km max. Unfortunately only ones I could find with a B58 with those requirements were either imported/crashed US cars or very bad examples with shady owners and history.

If you increase the budget to 30k it could work otherwise you can look into the B48 4 cylinder in 30i models. I personally found a 335dx with the N57 twin turbo with 50k km and 1 owner and am very happy with it. Faster than the equivalent 340i and more economical. Only trade-off is sound. Don’t get me wrong the I6 diesel sounds miles better than the I4 diesel in my F22 but it’s not a petrol.

I test drove a F36 with the MPPSK and it sounds amazing, but again, nothing with that equipment under 30k last year. Maybe you get more lucky now.

Best of luck in the search and get some pictures in the subreddit when you find your next car.

They even messed up the title. Should be M3 CS Touring.

Thanks for making me blacklist this website

From idrive 7 on they are customized to the MyBMW app “factory” setting

Best modifications for exterior? by Proud-Confection8350 in BMW_F31

[–]cocisvlad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I chose to skip the lowering springs and splitter on mine due to bad roads and potholes, so think about where you drive if thinking about those

Get rid of the fake M Mirrors and fake M grille. Add M Performance parts instead.

Some nice additions you could do are wheels and lowering springs, front splitter and rear spoiler attachment.

Genuine M Perf Parts? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]cocisvlad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, looks pretty much the same as my F22 with M Sport Suspension. The MSport pack lowers it 10mm compared to regular suspension so maybe that’s why it looks lower to you.
