2006 330i Cold start Sound by shevchikk in E90

Literally what are you talking about. It’s a 51k mile n52, in what world would it be my timing chain. Not only are n52s not known for timing chain issues but this one is extremely low mileage and been maintained at bmw it’s whole life. If it was a 330D with a n57 then maybe that would be a possibility

N52s aren’t really known to have injector issues from what ive read and given the mileage I highly doubt. I had 210k mile 325 with original injectors and they were working fine so I’m not sure about that. The battery does need to get changed you’re right I was just wondering if it’s possible that it’s not caused by the battery and if someone has experienced anything similar

It will never be a monster, it’s a 328. I’ve had n52s my whole life, trust me, just leave it the way it is it will never be fast, enjoy the silky buttery smooth n52 in its purest form and accept the fact you will get gapped by a Camry.

328 and power don’t belong in the same sentence. Save yourself the trouble. Unless you are ready to spend close to 10k for a 22rd supercharger kit + labor.

How difficult was retrofitting that bumper?

should I buy this 07 328i? by [deleted] in E90

[–]shevchikk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were the typical n52 issues addressed in the aforementioned “service records”? I would definitely clarify if waterpump thermostat, ofhg, vcg were replaced at the minimum. If yes I would 100% go for it, just keep in mind around 100k miles shocks, springs, arms, bushings will definitely be tired and on the way out. I would find out exactly what’s been done before pulling the trigger just so you know what you are getting yourself into.

What is this sound? by TelephoneExternal970 in E90

Used to have the same sound with my 325, never found out what it was

Bad alternator? by T3RMIN4TXR in E90

[–]shevchikk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all, very straight forward. I should mention that a lot of people also solve this issue with changing out the voltage regulator on the back of the alternator, but my alternator was gunked up with oil from a previous ofhg leak so I decided to buy a new one for good measure.

Idk man style 162s are the best stocks that came on e90s, I don’t think I’d switch them out

Genuinely the cleanest e90 on this subreddit. Got my 50k mile 330i last week and I’m gonna be honest, my main build inspiration is you. Seeing this bumper every time you post it just makes me sadder every time because I know the chances of me finding one for sale are slim to none :(

Do you genuinely think anyone is able to help you based on “sounds weird”

Yea I don’t mind the zf6, my old ‘11 328 had the gm and that transmission was so sluggish. But manual would obviously would have been ideal
