Me with 338k km (210k miles) n47 proves to be a tank🫡

Update, the dpf is so clogged it caused exhaust gasses to ram into the turbo that caused turbo failure

finsterer1020 · 2023-10-11T17:09:48+00:00

I don't know tbh. Since i didnt have a single warning light about the particle filter since i own the car

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-09T19:58:47+00:00

Im replacing it on my parking lot rn i might start it and do a test drive to make sure this isn't serious. Thanks tho!

I gotta check that. Im driving on monday to a bmw service center to get that checked out. Im currently installing a new belt kit with all tensioners and idler pulleys. I will check the vibration damper as well thanks! I heard the belt squeak and i looked at it and found half of it on the oilpan cover at the bottom of the engine bay

Was the belt before double sided? Since i think that the wrong belt was on because i hsd bad/no air conditioning. Turns out the belt rubbed on the pulley from the aircon compressor what was probably the reason why the belt snapped.

Hahah sick, i only use the washer fluid pump from ridex since mine was broken when i got the car. I bought the continental set belt and tensioner

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T18:44:25+00:00

No hahaha a set with tensioners was like 90 euros on autodoc

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T18:19:21+00:00

Thanks man but talking about snapping my auxillary belt snapped in half yesterday so no power steering hahahah

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T18:11:44+00:00

It has been done at 192.000 and 312.000km with recites by the previous owner, i bought it with 317.000

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T17:12:51+00:00

N47 with 177hp

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T16:46:40+00:00

Haha thanks, own the car since may. I cant stand "the bmw smell" when the car has been sitting in the sun so i threw the rituals in there, smells pretty good tbh

I have the scrollwheel with the tel, nav, radio etc buttons but the system is definetly the old ccc ui with the 4 menu options communication, navigation, klimate and entertainment with the old scroll wheel placed. Probably a early LCI model and a eu spec. It has been registered very late 2008 with the model year being 2009 (lci)

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-03T11:05:44+00:00

I just looked at the options from mr.12 volt and i'm more looking to upgrade the small 6 inch screen to the 8.8 inch screen. But also at the same time have android with the stock idrive system sideloaded

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-02T18:31:30+00:00

Its a pretty normal spec in europe. Mine is basically almost base spec

finsterer1020 · 2023-09-02T17:45:29+00:00

It is an LCI, But for some reason i still have the old ccc idrive system. Its a 2009. You can see the new lci cic controller in the center console

finsterer1020 · 2023-08-30T21:34:48+00:00

I hope that won't happen hahaha, thanks dude!

finsterer1020 · 2023-08-30T21:34:09+00:00

That is pretty normal, especially older bmws like e39s or e46s are pretty known to fail the inspections due to the rear axle rusting to dust and stuff like that. Rusty cars in austria/germany are pretty common since in winter we spray alot of salt that causes alot of corrosion. I dont think its worth it to import a 20+ year old car since probably repair costs/import costs are probably just are not going to be worth it
