BMW E90 years of release. Owners' reviews about BMW E90

A distinctive feature All cars bMW brands is their reliability. Even for modern technically complex modifications, stuffed with electronics, durability and wear resistance are characteristic. However, this does not mean that the Bavarian cars are absolutely immacular. There are both weaknesses, and there are a lot of these. Consider typical problems BMW On an example of a third E90 series sedan, produced from 2005 to 2012.

Exterior sedana BMW. 3 E90 is characterized by elegance and moderate aggressiveness.

As for the appearance of these cars, you can confidently say that their design will not endure long enough. At the same time, thanks to the "correct" metal, which is highly resistant to corrosion, the body will live without any problems until the moment as appearance Auto will come out of fashion. It is important to note the thick layer of durable paint, which long retains the shine and does not grind during the mile.

The BMW 3 E90 sedan was designed on the same platform as 1 series cars.

The main disadvantage of the appearance of dorestayling machines released from 2005 to 2008 can be considered the headlights. Without visible reasons Their glasses are cracked, and this problem is characteristic even for headlights equipped with low-temperature xenon lamps. Meanwhile, the price of one headlight in complete configuration It is 700 euros. Of the cheaper deficiencies, such examples can be given such as the washer hose (12 euros), which has a tendency to burst into the most inopportune moment, and the telescopic drive of the nozzles (50 euros).

"Patient" place BMW. 3 E90 - headlights prone to cracking.

Universal use of B. winter Chemical reagents often leads to the failure of the electrician electricians. For example, in large cities, cases were repeatedly recorded when in just 2-3 years he completely cleared the plus wire of the fuse block. At the same time, it should be said that for the "cure" auto replacement only the wires can not do - it is required to change the entire block of JUNCTIONBOX, and this is not a little bit - 400 euros. Also, corrosion becomes the cause of "zaksania" of moving elements of the wipers mechanism (300 euros).

After six-eight years of operation, it is often necessary to fit the bearings of the heater motor. The need for this is very easy to determine - when working on dry, they make an unpleasant spaceing sound. But it is Polwy. Much worse, if on machines with a two-zone climate control on the side of the passenger chair begins to blow only cold air. The reason for this is the refusal of the heater valves or an additional water pump. Their replacement will cost 300 and 170 euros, respectively.

Salon BMW 3 E90 looks great even in a few years of operation.

Heated heated chairs? The cost of repair depends on the type of seat. Heating elements for ordinary seats are quite budgetary - 18 euros for pillow and 60 for the back. Worse, if sports seats are installed in the cabin, as they heating elements Mounted in the upholstery and change only complete with it, and this is already completely different money - from 600 to 1000 euros depending on the type of seating material.

In general, the electrician at BMW 3 is distinguished by stable work, although it was not without a spoon of the tar who became servomotor (220 euros) of the unprecedented Valvetronic system, rotating an eccentric shaft, regulating inlet valves. As practice shows, it is enough for no more than 50 thousand km. As for other components, the replacement ahead of the deadline may require except the ignition coil (42 euros). The generators successfully "live" more than 200 thousand km. And by this time the repair often requires already engines.

Under the hood of BMW 3 E90, there is nowhere to fall apple.

The appearance of "treshki" was marked by the cessation of the production of the famous "Plate" - M-fifty-step engines that rightfully deserve the title best Motor Among all the Bavarian power units. New cars are equipped with a N52 engine with a bimetallic cylinder block. The inner part of the BC is made of aluminum alloy, external - from magnesium. This was done to reduce the weight of the engine and the car as a whole, with an increase in its power and efficiency, which was achieved. However, the reliability of the N-series engines leaves much to be desired. It is worth noting that it is carried out in a set of STR serving Bavarian cars.

BMW 3 E90 BMW 3 BMW Motor does not differ high reliability.

First of all, it is worth noting the increased oil consumption. And especially distinguished on this indicator of a 2.5 liter power unit. His oil consumption can be 1 liter per 1000 km. The main reason for this consists in excessive thin rings and an unsuccessful form of pistons, which ultimately leads to the wear of the cylindrophone group and repair, which by the most modest calculations will cost in 2000 euros. By the way, it will not be noted that the engine of 2.5 liters is equipped with about a quarter of all cars produced in the series.

For gasoline engines It is characterized by relatively short-term service life of the oil-circulation caps, which does not add any economy in oil consumption. It is worth noting the rather strange decision of the Bavarian designers to abandon the usual mechanical probes. Now oil control is carried out only with electronic sensorWithdrawal on on-board computer. It should be noted that it does not suffer excessive accuracy, and the data update is not enough quickly.

Oil level information is displayed on an on-board computer.

After 60-70 thousand km, the mileage often fails the crankcase ventilation system. As a rule, the reason for this becomes a climbing of plastic pipelines (100 euros), as well as a breakdown of the oil separator membrane (90 euros). If you do not in order to service in a timely manner, the result is the failure of the valve hydrophopore. They are quite affordable (only 10 euros per unit), but it should be borne in mind that they are 24 pieces.

By itself, the vacuum pump is quite reliable and often serves to 200 thousand km. However, after 110-120 thousand km of mileage, it is worth looking attentively, whether there are no oil drips around. If so, then it's time to change the gasket.

No less carefully treat the cooling system, especially when it comes to long row "six", which are very sensitive to elevated temperatures. It is prophylactically at least once every two years cleaned the gap between radiators. At the same time, you need to know that they themselves, thanks to small hundreds, prone to clogging. Prevention requires an expansion tank, cover (15 euro) which it is worth changing 1 time by 50-60 thousand km. However, there are positive points: for example, the problems with a fan characteristic of the M-series disappeared, since it was not too reliable design with a thermoft was replaced by electric. In addition, in gasoline engines, the timing chain can be considered eternal. But in diesel modifications it is it that represents a lot of problems.

For example, it should be noted that this is true not for all diesel engines, but only for the notorious four-cylinder engine of the N47 series. After 80-120 thousand km of the mileage, his chain may be so loosening that or breaking, or throws out one or two teeth of the drive asterisk. Located the gas distribution mechanism is extremely unsuccessful - in the rear of the block, which makes it difficult visual control. Nevertheless, it is still necessary to control the state of the chain, since in the case of its retelling the repair will pull 1500-2000 euros, and the rupture of the chain is "treated" only to a complete replacement power aggregateAnd this is the amount of at least 10,000 euros.

But Transmission B. bMW cars 3 almost perfect. All-wheel drive XDRIVE does not cause any questions at all. The six-speed "mechanics" is also very reliable, the maximum may need to replace the clutch (300-400 euros) after 200 thousand km of run.

Reducer connection rear bridge with a cardan shaft.

But the six-speed zf automaton, although the common but not the most the best decision. At about 120-150 thousand km, the box may require the replacement of gaskets and glands, which will cost 250-300 euros. If the mileage is greater, then the risk group should include an electron-hydraulic control unit, friction, torque converter. And then the repair will turn into a round sum - from 1500 to 3000 euros.

Not yourself strong side BMW 3 is the suspension. On powerful versions of the car it is worth controlling the rear axle. If with intensive overclocks, light clicks are heard, urgently in the service! Need to change the nut flange cardanian Vala. Otherwise, cardan may fall off with intensive acceleration. As for other problems, it is worth noting the racks of stabilizers that require replacement every 30-40 thousand km. And the first versions of the car released to restyling 2008, it is necessary to change not only the racks, but also their sleeves. In addition, after 100 thousand km, the mileage is often required to replace the front and rear shock absorbers (200-250 euro, respectively) and front suspension levers (120 euros per piece). Levers rear suspension Stay a little longer - 120-140 thousand km.

It is noteworthy that the X-versions of the "Treshka" suspension has a smaller resource of the work than that of the rear-wheel drive modifications. Meanwhile, the car in previous versions Body, for example, E46, all-wheel drive options were stronger. It is explained by the fact that the sake of weight reduction of the machine steel levers were replaced by aluminum. In general, E90 even the front wheeled bearings, changing with the hub (210 euros), with rear-wheel drive, are up to 200 thousand km of run, and with a full one about two times less.

Front design bMW suspension 3 E90 identical to the air suspension of the first series.

Another problem of the E90 sedan can be considered strongly loaded brakes. They are used not only in their primary purpose, but also as a component of the ESP system. As a result brake discs It is often erasing not after the usual 70-80 thousand km, but by 50 thousand km. Regardless of the version of the car, it is necessary to carefully follow the calipers - because of work in high temperature mode they are often covered with a baked dirt crust, resulting in brake pads Start eating. At the same time, the flanges of the hubs are quickly oxidized from high temperatures, after which it is quite difficult to remove the wheels.

It is worth noting the relatively high reliability of the steering rack, both both the usual (1400 euros) and ActiveStering (2000 euro). So if after 100 thousand km of mileage appeared backlash, do not hurry to change steering rack - It is quite possible that the problem is solved by replacing the steering shaft crosses, which is much cheaper (210 euros). But the waterproof pump (450 euros) requires close attention after 150-160 thousand km. If during the non-replacement of the node, the chips will split over the system, and this will necessarily replace the rail.

BMW E90. - car platformon which the fifth generation of 3rd bMW series. The beginning of the release of the sedan E90 - 2005. Universal (E91), coupe (E92) and convertible (E93) were launched into production at the end of 2006. The release lasted in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. During this time, the car passed some restyling. We present general information About Fuses BMW E90 for higher models listed.

On the different modelsThe list of fuses may differ slightly, we present the schemes of the most common bMW modifications 3-Series.

Manual for maintenance and operation

Want to know more information about BMW E90, read the instruction manuals: ""

Previous generations of triples from BMW were distinguished by reliability and "unhappy". Since the distant 1982, the Bavarian Concern of the Third Series was produced in the E30, E36, E46 bodies, and they all served a long time and did not create problems with their owners, despite a rather complicated technical design.

And now we will analyze in detail the penultimate generation in the Body E90, which was produced from 2005 to 2012, such cars on secondary market Now there is still a huge amount.

Externally, the car looks stylish and modern, despite his age, and in the future exterior design BMW cars will not endure. The quality of the body is also very high, corrosion does not take such a body. Layer paint coating Thick and strong, so the car remains for a long time as a new one, it does not rub on sinks, it will not flex with time, and if scratches appear, then due to the quality metal they are not visible.

In 2008, there was a restyling that some childhood diseases corrected. And in dorestayling versions there are some flaws, the cracking glasses of headlights are especially noticeable, even with xenon, the headlight can be cracked without any reasons. BUT new headlight With xenon assembled by 700 euros.

In models released after 2008, glass on the headlights are no longer burst. You can distinguish the postpartum 3rd series by updated bumpers, other nostrils, muscular hood and lED Farram Rear.

The harsh Russian winters are not very suitable for electrician BMW, especially in dorestayling models in the JunctionBox fuse block may be damaged by the plus wireThere were cases that he simply disjected after 3 years. To correct this problem, you need to change the wire, and if it does not help, then replace the block itself, which costs 400 euros.

If the rust gets to the mechanism of janitors, they will scatter their joints, which the motor will overheat and fail in the future. As for the outer mirrors, their folding mechanism if it is embedded, then it can be stirred and lubricated, then the outer mirrors will be able to automatically develop. It is better to make such simple things to buy a new janitor mechanism and a folding mechanism that cost 300 and 160 euros, respectively.

Also need to follow the heater motor bearings and lubricate them, especially in cars with age more than 6 years bearings dry out And they create a particularly pleasant whistle. There are more complex situations when there are 2 zone climates-control in the car, and only cold air from the passenger side blows. It is so easy to not solve the problem - it is necessary to change the heater valves, and this is not suiced - 300 euros. They are near the shield motor compartmentAnd also need to change the water pump, which costs about 170 euros.

If the heated seats stopped working, then there will be no serious costs if you have standard seats, elements of heating elements inexpensive - 18 and 60 euros for pillows and backs, respectively. And if the car has sports chairs, they will have to make a replacement together with the trim, the price will be much more expensive, depending on the material used, the cost varies from 600 to 1000 euros.

Car with gasoline engines electrician is quite reliable and rarely delivers the owners. The only thing that can entail costs - server Motomotor Valvetronic System. The price of the servomotor is 220 euros, it rotates an eccentric shaft that regulates the inlet valves. Usually, this servomotor does not stand more than 50,000 km. Even earlier, the term may cause individual ignition coils, their price is 42 euros per each. Generators are easily held by 200,000 km. But by this time the engine itself may require repair.

Motors in BMW E90

In this generation of the 3rd series BMW, the best Bavarian motors in the form of a plate - M54 were no longer installed. Instead of these reliable and durable motors, new N52 engines began to install, which are less weighing, less consume fuel, possess greater power. But but these motors are not so durable as the "stove". In the new engines, a bimetallic block of cylinders is used - an outdoor honor is made of light magnesium alloy, and internal - pour out of aluminum alloy.

Even the oil consumption of M-series motors was significantly less: the more you go to increased turns - The greater the oil consumption. And on the new Motors of the N-series you need to add oil, regardless of where the tachometer arrow is. Most of all consumes the oils of a 2.5-liter engine, which is installed on 25% of cars - about 1 liter per 1000 km. The reason for this great expense Thin rings are used in the design, and their form is not the most successful, so the cylinder-piston group is very quickly, which entails the cheap repair - about 2,000 euros.

All gasoline motors are famous for valve stem seals Nothing is not suitable for 100,000 km. mileage and oil falls inside cylinders where burns fuel mixture. The set of data of the cap will cost 50 euros.

The 4-cylinder Motors N46 are quite popular in the third series of BMW, machines with such motors more than 25%. The most senior cars of this generation have a lot of their problems - hydraulus chain has a weak sealing ringas well as, after 50 thousand km. There appears through the gasket valve cover, the replacement of which will cost 80 euros.

In these new engines, there is not even a probe to check the oil level. But there is a sensor tracking the oil level, it gives these readings on the board-computer display, but these data are not accurate enough, and also updated with the delay, so you should not trust.

Even the ventilation of the oil crank can create problems, after 6,000,000 km, it happens that it does not fulfill its functions. Here the fact is that the oil separator membrane failsAnd also there is a chance that plastic tubes have been hit by sediments. The replacement of the membrane will cost 90 euros, and the pipeline kit is 100 euros. If it does not make the repair of the ventilation of the crankcase, then the valve hydrophopores may fail due to oil starvation. Each hydropopor costs 10 euros, and there are only 24 pcs. If you take a 6-cylinder motor.

Also follow the vacuum pump especially after 120 thousand km. If there are drinkers, it means to replace the gasket in it. In general, the vacuum pump here is reliable, costs 300 euros and calmly serves at least 200 thousand km.

The cooling system also requires attention, especially in 6-cylinder engines that are poorly worried about overheating, they have little space under the hood, and the temperature of the refrigerant is not displayed on the instrument panel. In order for the cooling system to work properly, it is necessary to be removed between the radiators of the gap, as well as to clean the cells of radiators once every 2 years, and after 70 thousand km. Can be clogged. Prevention recommended every 60,000 km. to replace the covers expansion tank which is inexpensive - only 15 euros. The valve of this cover can imperceptibly jammed, because of this, the radiator will deteriorate, the water pump and the thermostat, which will be much more expensive than the lid of the expansion tank. There are also positive changes, now there are fewer problems with the fan, the M-series engines used the structure with a thermoft, and a fully electrical structure was introduced in new motors.

Valve train chain It is very reliable here, you can say eternal, it is advisable for prevention to change the hydraulic fighter times in 100,000 km, it costs only 40 euros. As for the chain on some diesel engines, then the opposite is here - it lives little.

In 2007, a 4-cylinder diesel engine N47 with a volume of 2 liters appeared. Power is from 115 to 184 liters. from. It uses an aluminum block of cylinders, and the chain is already about 100,000 km. It may stretch so much and jump through a few teeth of the star of the drive, and maybe in general. In both cases - very expensive repair of the engine. Therefore, starting from 80,000 km. It is better to immediately change it in order not to risk the engine.

BMW has been fighting for a long time with this problem for a long time, various tensioners are installed, the motors completely change under warranty. But the owners of these machines are not particularly easier, you have to listen when you are going if the unusual sounds from under the hood appeared. It is also unpleasant that the timing of the timing is in the back of the block, so it is difficult to follow in what state it is difficult to change the chains - you need to completely remove the motor.

Wait for the vibration and sound, as if something washes at the top of the engine and the power of the car will decrease - it is not worth it, especially on those cars where there is no warranty. Of course, to change the drive GRM need to spend more than 2,000 euros, but if a chain will break, you will have to fully change the engine, and this is already other expenses - a new such motor costs 10,000 euros. Paying such money is inappropriate, because the 3rd series BMW car in the E90 body with mileage costs about 15,000 euros. So, those owners who have had such a situation calmly install a used motor who bought on disassembly. Excellent cars are suitable for such purposes.

Here in the old turbo diesel engines M47 and M57, the problems poured out of cast iron are significantly less, but you can not be called perfect engines. For example, after 15,000,000 km. Run, if the smell of Painted rubber appeared, then this means that it has come time to replace the crankshaft pulley along with the spinner of the vibrations. It will cost about 300 euros.

And the 3-liter diesel engine M57 can crack the exhaust manifold made of steel. The new one costs about 400 euros. When the mileage comes to 200,000 km., We must carefully follow intake manifold So that there are no traces of the oil near the valves of the vortex channels. If there is oil, then the damper failed, which collapsed the axis, it can get straight into the cylinder. Therefore, it is necessary to go to a hundred faster and correct the situation.

Transmission at BMW 3rd Series

BMW transmission is reliable, especially the full system xDrive drive. Mechanical box On the 6th Steps of GetRag works for a long time and does not create any problems, except, the clutch must be changed every 200,000 km. Replacing the clutch will cost about 400 euros.

As for the 6HP automatic transmission from ZF, this box is not particularly reliable. Despite its prevalence, it requires some costs: after 120 thousand km. It will be necessary to change the glands if they drown, as well as gaskets. All this pulls 300 euros.
And when the mileage is translated for 200,000 km., There is a risk that the friction facilities will fail, a hydrotransformer and an electron-hydraulic control unit. Such serious repairs to replace all these elements will pull about 2000-3000 euros.

On modifications with greater power, you need to follow the back bridge - if there is a slight tapping with a sharp start from the spot, then it is necessary to make a replacement of a weakened nut of the cardan flange as soon as possible, which is allowed to main Transmission. If the Nut is completely promoted, the cardan shaft will fall off on the road.

Suspension

In BMW, the third series in the body of E90 suspension does not live for a long time, especially if the car rides russian roads. Already after 40 thousand km. We need change stabilizer and sleeve racks For them, in versions until restyling, the bushings were out of order very quickly, but the sleeve of post-track models began to produce from a stronger material, which had a positive effect on their durability. Already after 100 thousand km. It will be necessary to change the shock absorbers, the front is 200 euros, and the rear - at 250. They will also require substitutions and levers on the front suspension, each of which costs 120 euros, but the rear suspension levers can hold out to 14,000,000 km.

On a full-wheel drive models, the suspension begins to damage faster than on rear-wheel drive models. If we take for an example BMW x3 in the body of the E46, then he has levers from steel, and not from aluminum, which already makes the suspension more durable. In addition, in Treshka E90, the front bearings do not live for a long time and it is necessary to change them simultaneously with the hub, and the x3 have bearings that are calmly withstands 200 thousand km.

Diesel engines of BMW N (2006-N.V.)

General BMW Engine Diseases

With the advent of BMW E90 were removed from the production of reliable and time-tested engines M54. A new generation of N52 engines came to replace them with a cylinder block made of two alloys. The inner part of the block is made of aluminum, while the outer magnesium is outdoor. Engines became easier, more powerful, more economical, but reliability deteriorated noticeably.

To 100 tons. Km in gasoline engines contribute increased flow Oil worn oiling caps.

The cooling system in the car is made without any safety reserve: the close layout of the boost space, the lack of a pointer of the coolant temperature on the dashboard. Special dear consequences When overheating 6 cylinder engines.

A slit between radiators is clogged, which must be cleaned at least once every 2 years. Radiators themselves with small cells can firmly score with mud already to 70 tons. Km. Every 50-60 tons. Km It is necessary to change the lid of the expansion tank ($ 20), the valve that is inclined to the enclation. If the valve is still embedded, it will lead to the destruction of the radiator pressure, the thermostat or water pump.

But there are advantages. A reliable engine cooling fan electric motor appeared instead of unsuccessful thermoft.

Transmission

System full drive XDrive is quite reliable. MCPP6 getrag requires a clutch replacement every 180-200 tons. Km (400-550 $).

But the ACAP6 series of 6HP from the company ZF to 120-150 tons. Km can disturb the flow of the glands and gaskets (400-500 $). For large runs Can deny the torque converter, friction, electronically hydraulic control unit, which will cost $ 1800-4000.

On cars S. powerful engines Clicks may appear in the area of \u200b\u200bthe rear axle with intensive acceleration. The reason in the weakened nut of the cardan shaft flange, docked to the main transmission, which must be changed with the tab of a special lubricant. Otherwise, the cardan can fall off on the go.

Chassis

By 30-40 t. Km The racks of stabilizers and sleeves are wearing (on dorestayling cars).

To 100 t. Km The shock absorbers are wearing (250-300 $ per piece), front suspension levers ($ 150). By 120-140 t. Km The rear suspension levers are extended.

On all-wheel drive versions, the suspension serves less than in the monotrifers, whereas the situation was reverse on the E46. For example, the front bearings of the hubs go on a monolarier 200 t. Km, and at full 2 \u200b\u200btimes less. Change with a hub for $ 280.

Control mechanisms

Brake discs ($ 200) with xDrive run 50 tons. Km instead of 70-80 t. Km rear drive due to the use of brakes not only eSP system, but also imitation locks.

On the brake calips Baked crust dirt due to high operating temperatures. For the same reason, the flanges of the hubs are oxidized, after which it is difficult to remove the wheels.

There are no complaints to raiks. To 100 t. Km A backlash can appear in the steering chalk cross ($ 250).

To 150-160 tons. Km can go to the gur pump. If you run, then the chips will fall into the steering rail and you will have to change the pump along with the rail.

Other

According to the results of the foregoing, it is possible to make a disappointing conclusion to reduce the reliability of the car compared with the previous generation. The same trends demonstrateMercedes-Benz C-Class and Volkswagen Passat B6..

In 2005, the audience saw a new generation of this family. In this case, it is BMW 3-Series E90, which has changed very much compared to the previous generation. In this form, the model was made until 2008, and after it was subjected to restyling and was produced before 2012.

The model has changed very much, almost in all parts. It all also has several body versions: sedan, wagon, coupe and convertible. In our country, of course, the sedan is more popular in our country.

Design

Traditionally, the car inspection begins with its appearance, which has undergone cardinal changes. The front part is distinguished by numerous reliefs on the capped lid, optical instruments have become narrower and aggressive. The middle part, as before, occupies a stylishly executed grid of the radiator coated with chrome. The bumper looks in its forms. It is interesting, in its lower part there are oars of air flows. There are also the fog of round forms.


Considering the BMW 3-series E90 on the side, we get the opportunity to admire it excellent sports form. Arched parts are bloated in moderation. The logging line on the door handle looks more pronounced. Even at the bottom of the skirt there is a step-down. The windows are decorated with chrome edge.

The rear side, which is called feed, has changed significantly. But there were still signs that resemble the drivers about past generations. The forms of the luggage compartment are pleased with many, especially their spoiler intended to improve aerodynamics. Beautiful optics has an excellent stuffing - it looks cool. The lid of the luggage compartment is curved, rear bumper It is distinguished by the relief of forms, below there is a pair of pipes.

The manufacturer presented a large number of engines to the consumer. True, they are somewhat less than in previous generationNevertheless, the choice will be able to do anyone. The aggregates are available both for four and six valves.

  1. The basic motor is considered atmospheric enginegasoline operating, the volume of which is 2 liters. It is equal to 136 "horses". But the dynamics leaves much to be desired - the machine one hundred kilometer speed dials only in 10 seconds, the maximum speed mode is 210 kilometers. The car on the track consumes six liters of fuel, and in urban conditions - up to ten.
  2. The next version is highlighted with an increased capacity (by 20 hp). This made it possible to reduce the time of acceleration of the BMW 3-series E90 for a whole second and increase the speed regime for a dozen kilometers. But the fuel consumption in the city increased by a whole liter, and on the highway remained the same.
  3. The next motor also works on gasoline, but there are already six cylinders and a volume of 2.5 liters. He gives 218. horse power, gaining a chalkilometer speed in just 7.5 seconds. Cruising speed Equal to 242 kilometers per hour, consumption in the city - 13 liters. The track requires up to seven liters for every hundred kilometers.
  4. Continues the line of gasoline FROS three-liter unit capable of issuing 272 "horses" and maximum speedreaching up to two and a half hundred kilometers per hour. The speed of 100 km can be gained in six with a small second, consumption in the city is fourteen liters, and on the track it does not exceed seven.
  5. Completed series petrol engines three-liter engine equipped with a turbine. He gives 306 hp, the first hundred speed \u200b\u200bregime Dials in five and a half seconds. Naturally, consumption is increased - 15 liters on city streets, and seven - on the highway.

Should talk a little and pro diesel motors BMW 3-Series E90. These models are significantly less (only two), but many drivers prefer to exploit them.

  1. The ruler opens the engine with a turbine, two-liter. Over eight seconds, he gives a hundred kilometers per hour, spending seven liters of fuel in the city, and on the highway - up to five.
  2. Another option is a three-liter version for six cylinders. Consumption is small, just eight liters.

Gearboxes are not an abundance. The consumer is presented by two options - a mechanical version of six speeds or automatic transmission to the same amount. In most cases, the rear view drive, but there are all-wheel drive versions.

The suspension is excellent. Aluminum chassis ahead on two hinges, there are stabilizers transverse stability. Rear system It is more interesting, equipped with five levers on every wheel.

Salon E90.


Large changes occurred here. The BMW Salon of the 3-Series E90 continues to be quite modern, enjoys great popularity from drivers. Different options are offered as the upholstery, including natural skin. The quality of the assembly is at a high level.

The front armchairs are comfortable, equipped with low side-type support, electrical adjustments, heating system. Rear is located a comfortable sofa, on which three passengers are free. Not spacious, but there is plenty of space. There is a armrest for two cup holders, a ski transport hatch.


To control the driver, a rather thick steering wheel is isolated, which has the ability to adjust and in height, and by departure. It is covered with leather material, equipped with buttons to use the audio system. Stylish dashboard Presented by large analog sensors, edged with an impressive chrome trim. There are several displays that are considered a real on-board computer.

Round panel Torpedo equipped with a nine-seam display multimedia systemin which, to great chagrin there is no navigation system. The BMW 3-Series E90 air deflectors are somewhat lower in the amount of two, and the climatic control unit is located under them. It is simple, in the form of a small monitor, has several buttons and two spinning switch knobs, but it is quite simple to use it. At the bottom there is a slot for disks, buttons to use the radio station. And at the very bottom, the keys with which the heated seats is adjusted.


On the tunnel there is a small box, the gearbox selector is located. Next, the washer is inserted and a certain number of buttons with which you can control the multimedia equipment. Hand brake mechanical. The volume of the luggage compartment is 460 liters, which is also quite good.


Price 3rd E90
