Question 1

Which BMW 3 Series diesels have the N47 timing-chain problem?

Accepted Answer

The 2.0 N47, in E90 cars from 2007 and F30 cars until about 2015, can stretch its rear-mounted timing chain: listen for a rattle at idle. Cars with the B47 that replaced it are not known for it.

Question 2

How much road tax does a diesel BMW 3 Series pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Its CO₂ figure × 0.9 × a band factor, so half as much again as a petrol 3 Series with the same CO₂. A diesel at 150 g/km pays €148.50 a year.

Question 3

Is a used BMW 3 Series diesel still worth buying in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

For high mileage, such as a daily commute across the border, yes: the 320d and 330d are frugal on motorways. On short trips the particulate filter struggles to regenerate, and a petrol or a 330e suits better.

Question 4

Which diesel engines does the new BMW 3 Series have?

Accepted Answer

The 150 PS 318d, the 190 PS 320d with or without xDrive, the 286 PS 330d xDrive and the 340 PS M340d xDrive, all automatic and offered as both saloon and Touring.
