Anyone with a 325i near Orpington Kent??

E92Jenks · 05-02-2012, 01:33 PM

Hello guys I am having a large dispute with BMW. Over approved used car. It sounds like a tractor and has been with them for 2 days, I picked it up today and I am being told that it's meant to be making this noise. Was wondering if I could listen to another persons car just to see if they aren't pulling my leg.
My chris a e92 325i with 30k 2008

And help would be appreciated

Id gladly do the b road thrash up north to orpington, but I believe yours will be the 3 litre 325, mines a 2.5?

Injectors do make a noise at idle on the 3 litre N53 direct fuel injection engine.

Hello guys yeah I think it's just the injectors but it didn't sound that bad when I bought it last week, I'm not very impressed with the after sales either. Im not sure I want to put up with it! I sound louder at the lights than a series 1 land rover haha

After sales are never what you expect, they have your money... do they care?
There are rare cases i know but not often!
The injectors are noisey but shouldn't be as bad as what your making out, ask to test another model?
