I run a dual duty 135i in the pnw, but haven't had enough time with it to totally understand the heat issues (or not). My first track day was marred with limp mode issues. But, I learned that BMW puts the car in limp mode after hard acceleration and braking events to about overheating the brakes.

2023年8月9日 · BMW tech here, in your situation I would choose the 128. Better reliability, will still handle well on backroads, and will be a bit easier to work on considering you’re still learning. Would be a much better introduction to the headaches of owning a BMW lol.

2023年7月23日 · Bmw 135i reliability Looking into purchasing a 135i dct auto and wanted to know what is maintenance and repairs look like on these vehicles. My two former vehicles was a 07 350z stick & 12 maxima (for reference).

2015年2月6日 · 135i, and dont touch it. Its perfect off of the get go. Forget about the mentality of "modding" your car for performance, you will not beat the performance of a brand new BMW for the price difference. Basically you are saying, ohh,,, take this german engineers, i …

2018年10月7日 · Depends. I currently own a 2011 135i with over 100,000 miles and the only issue I had was Footwell module went out but was covered by extended warranty. Depending on the year of the 135i, reliability differs. 2008-2010 had the n54 engine while 2011- had the n55 engine. I would say that the n55's are more reliable because of the single-scroll turbo.

So I have been wondering about this build. I have a Bmw 135i n55 DCT with some mods (PPK1, Whiteline RSFB, Calico coated king rod bearings, m3 control arms, EBC yellowstuff brake bads, slotted rotors, and some good tires).

they're amazing cars. this one has the N54, which is BMW's first foray into mass production turbo. it has its issues but those usually don't start happening until the 100k - at this point you may start to researching who can or how to rebuild the turbos. this used to be a massive service as it was a replacement instead of rebuild - but the rebuild kits have made it significantly less expensive ...

2020年4月6日 · I have a 2011 BMW 135i (convertible, if it makes a difference). No comfort access and only have 1 key fob unfortunately. With the COVID-19 going around, I haven't driven it in about over a month (I have another car) so the car was completely dead when I went to start it …

2021年7月8日 · Yeah, the most controversial changes from the 135i to M235i/M240i (really all BMWs from the late 90/00s switching to new platforms in the 10s) was switching from hydraulic steering to electronic-assisted steering. Otherwise, the 135i and M235i are very similar cars, different platform but similar size, same power train, etc.
