I cannot get more then 32mpg per tank no matter the idrive says

I have sold my 335d now so it is not my problem anymore, but I have to say I was disappointed with the throttle response and mpg I achieved.
These might be related, but BMW were unable to resolve this so I'm left with a slightly jaded opinion of my 335d

I know it's a diesel, but my petrol 335i suffered the same symptoms - and as far as I'm aware, the diesel's can also suffer as well, as it too is a direct injection system.

Looks like a few hours work.

Great write up btw

From memory, I think TWG charged circa £250

^^^^^ You do realise that thread is from 2017? I suspect the problem is fixed or the car is scrapped by now

Lol, an old thread indeed but still worth reiterating how crumbly and shit that PCV pipe is. Also affects the 330d.

Yes, one of the lowest quality components I've ever seen.
