Easily.

Way more pop and bang for a stock exhaust compare to the m140

jack webster ye

In the video 135 is in sport mode, whereas the 140 is in comfort. If you were to ask how did I understand, check the smoke coming out of the exhaust pipes and you will understand.

@@KaanAkkrtl THIS ^ Also, not everyone thinks louder is better, some of us drive M140i's with stock exhausts because they don't want the attention. Like me.

Joe Achilles if you ever find yourself Manchester way you're more than welcome to try my manual m240i

Yeah I agree, had head phones on an it blew my ears!

I DONT THINK THE SAME ABOUT THAT DIFFERENCE IS HUGE

juan masel it is huge ..... b58 can smoke the standard m2 easily

Difference is night and day the b58 is different gravy

Anything to help those "waiting for my new car blues" Joe Achilles helped me when my 135 was on order. Yes! the video was shot around the Reading Area, A4 Dual Carriageway etc... you local then? 440 on order from Coopers in Reading?

Blues for sure! I swear time is getting slower and slower!!!!! Ah yes very local then. Im just outside of Twyford. However I ordered from Sytner Maidenhead as I work just around the corner from them at Volkswagen (slight irony there). I'll have to keep at eye out for you.

+Benjay1975 Thanks :) great cars! Do it... you won't regret. Lots of options to look into.

Quick question if your still alive as it’s been years 🤣 do the auto with the lddles need fluid change, are they dsg or? Or are they fine like normal gearbox they are made to last? Are the 2016 reliable for both of these?

Hi there, still alive! Haha. I have to say I'm not too sure. I know the autos on these are amazing and reliable. Not a dsg. However, I'd suggest creating an account on the babybmw forum and asking there. Amazing site for knowledge.

@@Picklescarchannel ahahah, ok man thanks for the reply :)

That was the engine grinding as its cold the oil never circulated through the engine

Great minds think alike! - M140i ZF8 Vs M135i ZF8 on our channel... 🤐🤫

Ke

Never heard of an 128i

Thanks! Well from what i have seen, the M135 tunes well (as you know) the EWG more so than the PWG, but the B58 in the M140's is even more susceptible to a tune, figures from standard are underestimated with some haveing around 370bhp from stock. 400+ is entirely possible with a Tuning box etc, some even recorded as high as 420/430 with downpipe, decat, tune. Join BabyBMW (forum) and there are plenty of discussions on there about this :)

Yeah, very happy with the choice! not for everyone, but i think it really lifts the interior :)

Hi Henri, Short answer... You'll be fine :) I've had a number of "powerful" cars before, never quite this quick though. This is my first RWD car of any variety, so I was concerned too... And to this point (touch wood) had no real sketchy issues in 2.5 years of, summer, winter, rain, leaves snow etc... Basically... Don't be a D**k and you will be ok, take it easy, learn to drive the car well and safely and just enjoy! :)

*Say, not day (sorry)

Hi Simon, Lucky you! i want to get the same on an M3, but no such luck as of yet ;) I think the confusion may be over manual vs/ Automatic, it actually makes a difference in the emissions. However, if you are buying new, then the issue for you is that the tax rules changed. This means that if the Car is below £40,000 you will pay £500 for the first year (auto) and £800 for the first year (manual) then £140 per year thereafter (for both)... If however with options, the car's value tops over £40,000, then you have to pay an additional £310 every year! www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables

Pickles Hey there, once again! Well, as direct result of your insights, with a healthy helping of joe achilles), I've finally done it and traded in my 118i for a brand new M140i 😁. It's mineral grey with red leather (I wonder where that idea developed?), with the lovely auto gearbox. Only thing now is the 1200mile running in period! Damn, that's gonna be loooong! Thank you for being so helpful and inspiring. Hope to see more of your videos very soon!

Hey simon! only just saw this message. sounds perfect! great choice on the colour combo, must have been a great influencer ;) when are you picking the car up? or do you already have it? 1200 miles goes pretty quickly, you will be happy with the power up to 4-5k rpm during running in anyway! will be night and day from the 118i :) Thanks for your support. looking to get back into the video making in the next few months (house purchase has put everything on hold) Pickles

Pickles Hey hey! Well, I picked the beast up on the 21st, and what a beauty it is! No tyre temperature gauge, unlike many others and I have the old iDrive, but who cares? I've got an m140i! So far I love it more than life itself, you'll be pleased to hear, even considering I'm taking it very easily. looking forward to your return to KZfaq, your content is missed!

Felt the same way as you did so I decided to get an answer - M140i ZF8 Vs M135i ZF8 on our channel... 🤐🤫

Totally agree the m140i sounds better once warmed up.

yes ，m240i is the same situation . I got my two resonator deleted recently ，it sounds amazing.

Brilliant sounding cars from the factory, I have the mperformance exhaust fitted and it sounds amazing! 😍😍

Hey, hope I can help you out here. I ordered my M140i 2 weeks ago after an extensive testdrive. The adaptive suspension is definitely worth it, in fact, the ride without it really is quite firm and I found that for longer cruises or everyday use it really is quite nice to have the "comfort mode". Besides, I had the "Audi Magnetic Ride" option in my S3 Sedan, and I was often very glad I was able to switch modes. (Comfort for everyday use, Dynamic for fast cornering / high speed autobahn) Concerning the Harmann/Kardon, good sound is a must for me, and I did quite a bit of reading on this particular audio system. Apparently, not every Harmann/Kardon system is worth it, but I read that the system built in the M135/M140 is really good, and I can say that I had the same impression testing it during my test drive. Although with that 6cylinder beauty under the bonnet with such a gorgeous sound, you'll spend a lot of time with the sound system turned off ;-) Navigation - I went for the professional one, but that's mainly because I'm a sucker for that nice big screen ;-) Also the fact that with the professional nav it'll work together with your automatic gearbox for optimal shifts (for example, it knows when there's an intersection ahead and will adjust gear shifts accordingly) and also your LED headlights, adjusting the lighting for different roads. I hope this helps, and good luck with your decision!

certainly does. hopefully will be able to do a manual comparison soon :)

I tend to agree :)

Was the exhaust valve open the m140i when comparing the two exhaust notes?

@@John-fo9jy unlike the m135i the m140i doesnt have an exhaust valve

@@EnergicLP the m140i does have a valve but only on the standard exhaust.

@@John-fo9jy Yes. It opens in sport mode.

Thanks :) Yeah that's a tricky one! I'd say head down to BMW for a test drive! That'll put your mind right. I think the speed difference is mainly the auto vs. manual argument. Either way you will be happy!

M140i B58 sounds better to my ears, the M135i is too farty / raspy it's not deep enough.

You've got the nail on the head and summed up my thoughts - M140i ZF8 Vs M135i ZF8 on our channel... 🤐🤫

@@CarNittythe m140i obliterates the 135i in terms of performance the b58 has way more torque and horsepower also lots more tuning potential.

yeah that's it, awesome garage is coopers. the new Audi Reading is nice too. i went there when it was the old one, the service was so, so shocking that i walked away from S3 negotiations and went back to BMW. Give yourself a few years and it will be better :) haha, yeah, that's right. The Shell garage by aldermaston is my local petrol station ;)

Haha, i wouldn't worry. The M140 will free up a lot with miles on it. You could always just get an exhaust too... MPE (warranty safe) or a BCS powervalve :)

Just do resonator delete , 140 will be super loud

You'd be right there. They are exactly the same really. The M140 is just the evolution of the M135. Same shape, same chassis etc, just a different engine and a few other bits under the hood :)

Yes they were. Interesting isn't it!

midi it because of mileage :)!

Yours got M performance exhaust?

Hi There, I believe it was a Maxton splitter. it was a while back so you will have to forgive me if that's wrong ;)

Yeah, that's right, same basic engine as the M2 (non comp)

@@Picklescarchannel hello agen its ok i have just got my 65 plate m135i and am looking at mods and want to make sure the n55 was right engine

Haha, you are asking on the wrong video mate ;) Blowsy has been busy with his personal life etc, he is a busy man. How did you enjoy this video?

they certainly do. Blowsy's car does look a bit more "aggressive"

You aren't the first to say this. But I can guarantee you, both in sports plus after being warmed up. B58 is a better, more modern engine sure... But the N55 sounds better :)

+Paul Lynch hey Paul, both cars were in sport+ for the comparisons :)

You are right you know. similar effect to those Go Faster Stripes you can get! ;) Blowsy wouldn't believe me though...

Thanks Chris, i was actually looking at that thread last night. Bot something that i will be changing any time soon, but nice to know it is possible! Keep an eye out over the next few weeks, will finally be back with some hopefully exciting new content :)

Haha, thanks Adam. It's because you have to use certain copyright free music and it is very difficult to find good stuff! The levels on this were terrible. But we live and learn

You are right Juan, it is still just a 1 series, i'm aware of that and don't claim anything else. God forbid anyone were actually proud of a car they had lesser than a Porsche. I hope you enjoyed my video about something you don't care about. What car do you have out of interest? Be sure to subscribe for more 1 series content! :)
