These are all made of plastics and can crack over time. There's aluminium equivalents for these from china but most workshops dont recommend using them

Maybe a better solution is to use original plastic parts + reprogram the engine to run at lower temp ~90c+

really funny I tell you, when they say they wanna save the environment yada yada end up we spend more on some parts that supposed to last longer

just to name a few:
water pump with plastic impeller
plastic thermostat housing
radiator with plastic end tank
plastic clutch driven cooling fan


summore our weather is hotter than europe... sigh

2016 320i facelift, petrol model... using b48 engine. Maintenance wear/tear avg per year i standy by 5k just in case.

Services
Oil change/filter= rm500
Gearbox oil with filter =rm900 (This expensive but only need to change every 30-40k km)
Diff oil= rm300
Air filter/aircond filter= less than 200 because shopee cheap2..
Other than that so far ok. but i less use the car only weekend. But this model need to check ALL the cooling hose from engine to the radiator. If harden or u see the hoses turn brownish then better change all hoses to prevent coolant leak.
Diesel no comment. Anyway diesel model very less now in the market. If got also very high mileage.

Combination of plastic parts and high temperature engine at 110c....some mechanic say not recommended to tukar the parts to aluminum cause it retains heat and make things more worst.

So yes in short prepare 10-20k a year for the repair/maintenance fees.

But actually leak coolant or oil is easy to detect and if change/repair early then no problem one. Usually it's the few most common parts like valve cover gasket, thermostats, coolant pipes etc. Most problematic is some hidden valve/pipe/bush/parts that cracks and you can't see it easily...

I get it that plastic tend to harden and crack over time but in this time of age, no plastic that can withstand ?

The quality of Honda, BMW & Merc in my experience basically equal... Surprise surprise surprise.. (but clearly no surprise bcoz my father fan of conti since I was kid)...
I think I know all penyakit with that cars...
Obviously still below Toyota quality & reliability..

The only different why I suggest Honda Ketam (if budget limited to 60-70k for used car) is bcoz abundant spare part & OEMs..
For conti; alwayz prepare for double price (even if u buy used car)...
Dont waste yr time buy conti hybrid car...

Good question... hmm.gif maybe engineers haven't invented that yet...or they purposely make it easily crack to earn more for repair.
