I finally bought a 320si. It has been fitted with an updated new short engine at BMW (improved bore liners) It needed a complete engine as the head was also damaged.
I get the following consumption as calculated from use on last 4 full tanks of fuel - not from the trip computer reading. Driving is all mainly B roads driving of which 70% time smooth and then more throttle on some nice sections 30% time 12.28L/100km 9.811L/100km 10.40L/100km 11.13L/100km If I drive very smooth most of the time I get 8.56L/100km. Engine has now done 3000 miles |

Has anybody replaced the engine in a 320Si or had a cylinder liner repair done? Mine has suffered the dreaded fault and I'm either looking at getting it repaired or selling on as a project but I'm having difficulty finding any decent information.

Hi guys
Has anyone owned SW56VDL I'm looking into buying it, it has 83000 miles on the clock, has had timing chain tensioner replaced, exhaust manifold, DTC control module and ignition coils replaced. Has had one owner from new. I have been reading about the engine problems these have had and it's made me very wary about buying it. Thanks in advance Andrew |

8,5 L / 100 ??? wtf..... here i have more or less 13l/100 mostly driving into town i havent seen 8,5 anywhere... not even driving with 100KM/h in the motorway where is stays around 10/100 i have times to times the problem with oxygen sensor but the diagnosis has shown not faulty oxygen sensor but bad catalytic convertor! i guess this could be also caused from an oxygen sensor though... |

Kata: when it comes to fuel, I would not recommend using no more than 98 octane, for e.g. nitro 100+ from shell is dry and produces a high temperature in the cylinders, can be even 95 but good quality ... I think Not possible is 8.5 l/100 in town in traffic, maybe if you're Eco Driver(6th gear/50km/h), but normal driving ... 10 / 100 town or more if you push harder, next time on car check ask Bmw specialist to adjust computer to real measurements, or You can check in secret menu cobalt: When You change CAT, use better oil and change like not more then 10.000km... |

the problem is that i knew one other person also that had the numbers that Kata mentions... i wish i had these numbers also... i have NEVER seen 8, 9, 10 or even 11/100 i wonder if the ''handmade'' of the engine is responsible for such a difeerence between the cars... in my next service im thinking just as precaution to replase the following part number: 11 61 7 511 383 actuator http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E9...nifold_system/ part in image 18 |

IN poland, guy had a problem with high combustion of gasoline per 100 km but 15/17l , it was pneumothorax oil and lambda probe fault, do not know whether I wrote the English (GoogleTranslate) look for this post and part of the realoem.com because I do not want you to mislead found: the problem of the leaking chamber vent valve, its on the carbon-fiber plastic housing (part 1 - complete head cover) http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...40&hg=11&fg=15 Vent draws so. "left" air in the other side throws a little bit of oil, and computer changes the fuel mixture ratio which translates to higher combustion my comp: Last edited by kri35; 11-09-2013 at 12:12 PM.. |
