I wouldn't go lower than 335i as I could keep my E46 330i which has about the same power as a E90 330i. The one problem with the G20 BMW 3 Series that BMW needs to fix. There is no doubt that about the BMW’s superior dynamics, which is far ahead of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and the Audi A4. We absolutely love the way it drives and sounds, even in the four-cylinder 330i. In terms of evolution of character, the G20 BMW 3 Series is closer to the n8s 330xi. 573 posts · Joined 2007. #7 · Jan 22, 2008 (Edited) My '01 330xi has been very reliable. I have done a few things, such as FSU, Cam position sensor, and rebuilt axles. The 2 sensors ran me about $50 each, and took maybe 30 mins to do. Very easy and cheap. In this BMW E90 Suspension Guide, our BMW Catalog Manager, Gareth Foley, educates us about the common issues associated with the E90 chassis. This specific BMW may have deactivated this feature. You will NOT have these common E46 problems: window regulator failures, fragile sunshade clips, Climate Control (Final Stage Resistor), Cam Sensor. If you have sport pkg you might want to upsize tire height by 5% 225/40 --> 225/45, 255/35 --> 255/40. 3 posts · Joined 2014. #3 · May 15, 2014 (Edited) Thanks for the reply. The battery is good. We also hooked up a battery charger this morning to completely rule it out and provide extra amperage. I watched him try to connect again this morning. Was just getting fault errors. The only after market device I have on my vehicle is a lidar jamming Engine problems aren't the E46's biggest issues, but the problems are worth considering whether you're bent on giving this model a bear hug or touching it with a 10-foot pole. They first came with 1.6- to 2.0-liter BMW M43, N42, and N46 inline-4 petrol engines, with available 2.0- to 3.2-liter BMW M52, M54, and S54 straight-six petrol engines. Leaking oil filter housing gaskets are the most common issue with all E90 engines, and you will hardly find an engine that hasn’t had this problem at some time. There are two gaskets — one between the oil filter housing and engine block, and the other between the housing and oil cooler. App Vay Tiền.
