Hey guys. Welcome back it's Mark with Exotic Car Play Place. Today we are going
to go and do some shopping for the most unreliable 3-series BMW because I am
looking at a new daily driver, and we'll go take a look down at some of the
dealers and see if we can find one of the cars that's right for me. let's go.
now I am down at the dealer and I've actually found two of the favourite cars,
two cars that I'm considering buying as the most unreliable 3-series BMW is
available today. now you're probably gonna ask yourself
why would you want to buy the most unreliable 3-series BMW? well it's mainly
because that particular BMW happens to be the most tunable car, and there's no
surprise that you know based on my channel, I like exotic cars, supercars,
fast cars in general. why wouldn't I want to go fast? so I want a car that's
tunable but I don't want to start with a hundred and fifty thousand dollar car.
I'm gonna start with something that most people can afford, and I'm gonna guide
you through this, if I decide to buy a car like this, then I'm gonna share with
you the experience. so let's look at this. I basically got two choices here now.
what I'm talking about is the 335 BMW. now why is the 335 my best choice? well
mainly because the 335 has turbochargers, and typically anything with
turbochargers is very, very tunable, and you can usually extract a lot of
horsepower out of a turbocharged car. so that's why I've narrowed my search down
to the 335. now there's a few selections in the 335s, some of them you can get up
to 2010 they come with the infamous n 54 motor that is notoriously unreliable
with the twin turbos, and then if you look at a 2011 and newer, then you're
basically dealing with cars that have been slightly improved, although they're
not perfect either because again anything turbocharged typically has
additional heat and stress and therefore reliability goes down the hole. so we're
gonna start with this one. here is a 335. now I found one, so there's two other
choices so aside from going with you know the n54 or the N55 engine, which is
newer. there's other choices like we have here the sedan, so this is the four-door
sedan, obviously this is pretty generic looking, pretty standard, they own the
marketplace for sports sedans in my opinion, and so here is a 335. let's take
a look around. this is a sedan, this one has the X Drive, so there's some options
you can go with the all-wheel drive, which I'm probably going to go with
because I live in northern climate. of course lots of snow where I live.
this one unfortunately has some kind of the small wheels so you probably want to
have that upgraded, but you'll notice the 335 has the dual exhaust in the back, but
looking at the taillights, that's one distinct difference, so just
the way it happens, we actually have a coupe here as well to compare this with.
so I'm considering the sedan or the coupe. I'm not sure like there's
angles of both that I really like, and you'll notice of course you know the
headlights are mainly the same. let's take a look at some of the exterior
features. obviously it's X Drive, you know, we've got this style, a mirror here, what
else do we have in these, in the sedan?
well this particular sedan here has the wood grain interior, it's very nicely
equipped here as well standard seats, power seats of course, lots of nice
finishing in these cars. now we go to the back now, the beauty part with the sedan
is it actually gives you, you'll notice one, two, three seats, and you get all the
foot space in here. so if you have three you know two adults and maybe a
child or three smaller adults, you can fit three people in here. so this is
actually a five seater and then we move over here, so we're gonna look at a coupe
now. that most people would agree that coupes are more beautiful
look overall. the style is much more attractive. this one here is the M
package, this car is particularly attractive, you know you've got the M
spoiler. on the front it definitely looks a lot more aggressive. now the wheels are
prettier here as well, the upscale wheels on here, you'll notice
the mirrors, it's a different style of mirror as well on the coupe, the overall
look is different for sure, maybe you've got to stretch body lines on the coupe
you've got this nice crease that runs along so this is a different different
piece and of course since we talked about the taillights this of course is
at 335 but the taillights are sleeker and notice they're kind of a skinnier
type of taillight on here as well here you've got the dual exhaust dual exhaust
on this guy as well so it's a very very pretty car now this one here happens to
have some junk in the trunk this guy here's got some spare tires
looks like some winter rubber in the back of the seat here so I can't show
you that in this case the downside with this coupe here that we're looking at is
yes it's prettier yes its overall a much more attractive car and this one's
actually got better upscale you know finishing versus the other sedan that
being said you can do that as well with the sedans you can find a better
equipped sedan but this one actually only has two seats in the back and I
can't show you that because of the tires in the back but the coupes only have two
seats as well this car only has two wheel drive rear wheel drive only I've
only got essentially the rear wheels drive in this car so less practical for
winter time less practical as well with the back seats because if you have kids
like I do then this is going to be a little bit more of a compromise of
course this is really more of a sports car than the sedan and so we look around
you'll notice that a traditional grille pretty standard fare there but overall
underneath is what really matters and that's why I'm looking at buying the 335
even though it's the most unreliable 3 Series it's because the tune ability of
the engine that's under that hood so let's maybe take a look and see have a
quick look so let's pop the hood of this sedan here
I'm gonna do the old that and there is the infamous n54 engine that we have
under the hood of this sedan now while it looks pretty stealthy this car is
extremely powerful and extremely tunable now they come standard with a 300
horsepower and 300 pound feet of torque unlike this very easy to access
that's BMWs always got that sort of stuff figured out now I'm down in there
there's some you know changing the serpentine belt can be a challenge and
some of the other things in here can be a challenge we all know that these cars
are notorious through high pressure fuel pumps are known to go injectors are
known to go this is of course a straight-6 so there's six injectors they
are known to fail as well you've got leaks from that valve cover
gaskets and look isn't this funny this everything looks very kind of moist in
here and so this is pretty typical to find wet top end on these cars not
uncommon at all of course turbos can go he's got cars also have the occasional
wastegate rattle coolant issues you've got leaks now the rad and everything is
tucked in behind here and there's your fan of course your rad is tucked down in
there neatly but of course that can be an issue as well as the water pump the
water pumps are also notorious for these things and that's going to be something
you can almost guarantee you'll be changing at some point so that is the N
for engine now the plus side now why would you buy an end 54 like this over
the end 55 which is the 2011 and newer why would you because these ones so far
have more tune ability and they definitely have
of in after-market support the end 55s are getting there but they're not quite
there yet so these are actually made to modify their their a better car for
tuning if you want to make the car go fast this is the engine that you want to
have the n54 this coupe this also has the m54
again more tunable then you get in the in the end 55 like the 2011 and newer
but again these cars are made to go fast and they are fun now the downside to
both of these particular cars is they're both automatics the downside here is
this car is actually an automatic I really want the manual gearbox this car
super clean otherwise holding up very well I'm not sure what the mileage is on
this car but again the fact that this is an auto I'm probably not even gonna
bother the salespeople about this because it's not really what I'm looking
for as well you've got that fancy the latest I drive in here pretty routine
stock steering wheel small and beefy and pretty typical for the BMW you'll notice
the wear and tear as well I've seen that on my x5 as well as m5 pretty standard
issues with these cars and that we're on that that material there so then the
question is again I know you've probably asked again and again if it's so
unreliable which it is why would you buy this car well mainly for the fact that I
want to go fast now that being said it is one of the most unreliable 3-series
BMW is available but so is an m3 of many of the generations and I've considered
shopping for one of them as well I'm really interested in possibly picking up
in m3 particularly the e90 series because I'm actually thinking about
considering strapping an ESS supercharger to an e 90 and make that
thing go really really fast so we'll see about that
but for now I'm looking at the 335 not because it's unreliable but because it's
tunable and the the problem here is these two
cars are automatic and for me I like driving a stick see why not remove one
more point of possible failure manual transmissions are generally inherently
more reliable while clutches do burn out it's generally not as big an issue as if
you have an automatic that burns out it's a much bigger repair so anyway I
would typically go with the manual and neither of these are manual
transmissions and therefore I think I'm gonna skip these two so I'm gonna keep
on looking so I really hope you enjoyed the video guys I just want to give you a
summary of some of the key differences between the coupes and the sedans and a
few of the different variations and why I would buy this car this in fact is the
car I'm starting to shop for the 335 with a manual gearbox and probably the
xDrive that's the car that I'm likely going to wind up with if I find the
right car so stick with me on the search everybody I want to share with you the
experiences along the way as I shop for these cars unfortunately these are not
the cars that I'm looking for here but we'll get to that so hope you everybody
liked the video you make sure you give me a thumbs up like subscribe and we'll
talk to you real soon thanks again guys buh-bye
