I love Diesel, i shud have gone with the big D

Read thru rumours of F30 that,

high end models will be fuel like 328 and 335

While lower range consist of the now famous 320ds

But i love fuel more than diesel although diesels model got more torques

doesnt matter

That might be true for the Malaysian market. However, I am quite certain 3.0 liter six pot diesels will be available as well particularly in Europe as diesel engines are getting very favored here.

I'm driving a 330xD and am very satisfied with the fuel economy + cost.

Checked for 320d at mudah. Cant afford yet lah.

Maybe wait till next year

Polished my car yesterday, took roughly around 3-4 hours, after completing it i was barely able to stand

Had to polish the hood twice cause the first time, the engine was warm and wax didn't get applied properly




next task is to clean the rims and brakes

Never polish a car when its not properly dry or if its too warm.

yeah i learned my lesson

Guys i'm looking for a BMW z4 cabriolet or a e46 cabriolet.

Looking for one in white, budget below rm170k

if anyone of you are selling or know someone please inform me

6 pot diesel will not be available in Malaysia anytime soon because they need better diesel grade. Our fuel standard is Euro 2M and Euro 4 will only be implemented in 2014 so it is definitely not anytime soon.

actually, if biodiesel takes off on a larger scale and in more % then just B5 (5%), then our diesel will be much improved as biodiesel has almost zero sulphur in it..

never heard much prob with the turbo in 335i. or maybe you knew more, i'm not sure.

it's very rare to see a 330i e90 in malaysia. you either go 325i, or if you have more budget, you skip to 335i. same roadtax 330i, but way faster. higher price of course. sedan version of 335i is even rarer.

Added on November 19, 2011, 3:57 amare you swapping it with your e60? you mileage is quite high at 200k, but it's way better than those conmen in the 2nd hand dealers tweaking the mileage

Z4? cool. maybe can get a 2005-2006. which engine? my uncle just got one. previous model z4. he also has e90 325i, e90 320i LCi, mk5gti, mini cooper S.

the engine in the 335i in its initial stage had lots of problems with the high pressure fuel pump, many cars equipped with the 3litre turbo had to be recalled but i'm sure BMW has fixed all of em now la... hopefully

yeah 330i and 530i's are pretty rare, guess most malaysians don't like to pay 2.3k for their roadtax

and no la not swapping it. my e60 mileage is all highway miles

bmw z4 either with the 2.5engine or the 3litre.

I'm not sure but that statement is from BMW Malaysia They have no plans to bring in diesel engines with higher cc because of the fuel quality limitations for now.

Now 335I engine issue had been rectified(High Pressure Fuel Pump,Oil Cooler)
330I is not here nor there mar
Pay the roadtax but don't get 335I performance
Besides,335I can easily do 300hp++

Its actually a matter of taste

For me i'm a NA lover and Turbo's are

don't get me wrong Turbo's are great but i don't know i just like the feel of NA. The smoothness etc

the standard 3 litre engine can be tuned to make 280+ or in some cases even more with just a few mods

the 335i can easily do 380hp if im not mistaken just by upping the boost

Yeap,335I easily modded into higher hp
3L can do 280hp???
I know 3.2L M3 S54 stock is already 343hp
If want NA,ultimate stop will be E46 M3 or E92 M3 or E60 M5

the n53 in the 530i produced 272hp stock just imagine when tuned
