Big Question Mark on BMW quality and services

1.5 years after purchase, my transmission gone bad and the dealer replaced it. The dealer replaced a couple of spark plugs in 2~3 years. The dealer didn't tell me about the replacement of spark plugs. Soon after the factory warranty expired, the intake valve was loose and the dealer needed to re-tighten it. Even well before the warranty expiration, the problem (jerking and shaking) associated with the loose intake valve started. Another BMW? No way!!! Buy American or Korean.

Just purchased a 2014 328i with the 4 cyl turbo. After 5000 miles, engine malfunction comes up on the display. After some research, looks like this is a common issue with these newer f30 3series. Usually a transmission failure or VANOS failure. [HTML removed]

Recently, we leased a new 2014 328 I sedan, from Braman. The engine is smooth and no lag or jerkiness when the turbo kicks in. The 8 gears makes it so. The three driving modes, Eco Pro, Comfort, and Sport will appeal to all variety of driving tastes. The interior is spacious and the seats are very comfortable, which was not the case in the past. The control monitor is easy to use and read. It has multiple functions, which make it a pleasure to us. Having driven an IS 250 previously, this is a huge improvement. Take a test drive, you will love this vehicle. Lease is up soon, so planning on leasing a 2017 330i.

Great car for the price

I was able to snag my luxury line 328i with 98k miles in 2024 for 9k and it has been great so far I’ve put 11k miles on it in a little under a year and it has been perfect and the aftermarket support is massive. I’ve added in apple car play and it really modernizes the car a lot but the thermostat is known to fail but I’ve not had this issue and also the n20 motor this car has is infamous for the timing chain issue that I also have not had so far but other than that it’s been an amazing daily driver
