⚙️ Engines — what to expect
BMW/PSA petrol turbo — N13
Known issues
- Similar chain tensioner issues to N47 though less severe. Listen for rattling. (~1 200–2 500 € repair)
- Wastegate develops play, causing rattling noise under boost. (~400–1 000 € repair)
BMW B-series 3-cylinder petrol — B38
Known issues
- 3-cylinder engines have inherent vibration — this is normal, not a defect. Engine mounts wear faster compensating for imbalance. (~0–300 € repair)
- Chain tensioner can lose pressure after cold soak, causing brief rattle on startup. Usually harmless but should be monitored. (~500–1 200 € repair)
- Plastic expansion tank can develop hairline cracks. Slow coolant loss without visible external leak. (~100–250 € repair)
BMW B-series petrol — B48
Known issues
- Some early units consume oil above normal. Check oil level regularly. (~100–2 000 € repair)
- Direct injection causes carbon deposits on intake valves. Walnut blasting may be needed. (~250–600 € repair)
- Coolant reservoir or thermostat housing can develop micro-cracks. (~200–600 € repair)
- HPFP can wear over time, causing rough running or hard starts. (~500–1 200 € repair)
🚨 What to check before buying
Overall risk score: 6/10
Serious risks
- Timing chain stretch: Similar chain tensioner issues to N47 though less severe. Listen for rattling.
- Turbo wastegate rattle: Wastegate develops play, causing rattling noise under boost.
- Car is 9 years old — some age-related maintenance expected (seals, suspension components)
