Insurance did that, however, still running like a top. Hope your n20 lasts.

Cheers.

Great to hear, I plan on keeping this car for a while.. At 7 years & 107k miles later it still looks brand new inside and out...

This car is crazy reliable over 77k not a single repair that's not been maintenance don't let the forums scare you this car is built.

Mine (2016 428i gc xdrive) has had transfer case replaced under warranty at 49,500 miles, but otherwise just brakes, venturi line, telematics battery. Did tranny fluid/pan and diffs fluid at 65k, Sitting at 91k miles, and runs great. Need suspension work soon but that's more or preference, it's not bad.

My last car, meticulously maintained 2010 Honda Accord had timing chain let loose at 100,000k, so those things can really happen to any vehicle.

Just keep up on fluids and get regular service and it should treat ya well.

Let's not jump to a conclusion and judge a fellow human being. Could be a typo, or some kind of strange transplanted engine combo. Hope he checks back and clarifies.

71k on my N20 (2014 328i). Normal maintenance. That's it. Zero problems. Great engine so far.

I’ve had explained many times on this forum. I got stuck in a flash flood in NMB and insurance replaced it with a N20 with about 8-10k miles more. Been about 16 months and so far so good. I guess for some people it’s very hard to comprehend.

2012 328i
Steering rack replaced at 75,000 mi/120,000km - $5,000 repair covered under a secret recall
Engine seized at 100,00 miles/160,000km due to broken timing chain guide. I loved that car but its just a pile of parts now.

What symptoms were you having before you had to replace the steering rack?

Currently at 109k and the motor finally gave out. Misfires and limp mode coming on nonstop with stutters at 2-3k rpm… I dumped $4k in repairs and still didn't fix the issue so I'm throwing in the towel and buying a C300 or a A4 Premium plus !

The steering felt "notchy" at first, then later it became harder to turn. This was during a cold winter period. It got better as the weather warmed.

This was my first and last BMW. They are great cars while still under warranty. After that, it just doesn't make sense as the reliability is bad and the cost of repairs unbelievably high.

With all due respect if it's your first BMW you can't really comment on reliability. I've had 12 different BMW's over the last 17 years and they've been some of the best cars I've ever owned if properly maintained. Every model has its common problems and if left ignored and let to fail that doesn't make the brand as a whole unreliable. I've never been left stranded by any model of BMW even with almost 280k miles.

I can understand not being aware of your previous posts on this topic and your unfortunate car. I was not aware and don't participate on this forum often enough to have noticed.

Nevertheless, it is most sad that many people will assume the worst of others and not bother to do a little asking or digging or conjecture as to why the apparent impossibility might, in fact, be possible. Sorry that you have been subjected to grade school level name-calling here.

Where are the apologies?
