Why The BMW B58 Is So Good
Рет қаралды 378,850
Күн бұрынThere are nice engines and there are terrible engines by BMW. This B58 is a fine one and although its long-term reliability is to be shown in the future, we are starting to get the picture of what the B58 is capable of. There is a bunch of models powered by the B58 and people have been tuning them everywhere. Let's find out how good it is and why.

I’ve owned my 2018 340i Xdrive since 2018 & it’s had 0 issues and is at 87K original miles and counting. If y’all are needing proof of this, I have it. I’ve kept it in its stock form & I assure anyone doubting this engine can put all those doubts to rest. The only thing I’ve done is general maintenance & a coolant flush. It’s been bullet proof. Even went through 3 wrecks, got it fixed each time & still has not a single mechanical issue. At first I thought it was a piece of shit, and now over time has proven to me maybe it was the car for me all along & I doubted it too much. Obviously after hitting 100K + we’ll see truly how great this motor either is or not. I’ll keep you all posted. Have thought about posting high mileage b58 content for some time especially since I’ve tried to take great care of my 340 in the 4 years I’ve owned it.

A car that only goes fast in a straight line is a US specialty. Even now several of their really fast cars are only any good on straight roads (Hellcat etc) Anyone can build a car like that, the trouble comes with tight bends and corners familiar to European drivers. That is why Europeans have no interest in the majority of US designed and built cars (that and the terrible build quality!)

Going B58 after 15 yrs of unboosted V8's, it takes some time to get used to driving with a sea of torque in low RPMs. I still don't like it ocmpared to naturally aspirated engines, but it makes for a pleasant flexible engine with - indeed - excellent MPG for its HP output. I essentially went from 18.8-23.5 mpg with the N62 V8 (4.4l) to 23.5-30 mpg with the B58 (not the TU1). Not the V8 sound I was used to but in sport modus it makes a decent soundtrack. *torque *enough horse power *decent mpg If durabilty also checks out, it's a winner.

Besides the shortcomings of the location of the cam timing and oil pump chains, the plastic parts breaking down with time, and no port injection to maintain clean intake ports, the B58 is an engine with very high tuning potential. Regular oil changes will greatly reduce chances of VANOS and Valvetronic failure, and a catchcan will mitigate intake port carbon buildup.
@JoseRivera-ym3wj 2 жыл бұрын
@Automobile Addict, there are far more worse European engines. No engine is perfect. Objectively, many engines from many manufacturer come close to perfect. Which has their fans. Even those considered "unreliable" by many are seen as challenges to improve them by many. Take the Subaru boxer and Mazda Wankel, for example. But even the LS engine isn't bulletproof if you neglect its maintenance or push it beyond what the parts are capable of handling.
@Supremxcyxi 2 жыл бұрын
Like I said in a previous comment, these engines don’t have carbon build up due to the way their PCV system works. High mileage B58s have been opened up to find zero carbon build up on the valves. Also given that it’s an inline-6 you should never have to service the timing chain or guides for the life of the car.

Glad to see you cover this engine! It's an absolute gem, even when paired to a 6-speed like my 240 Quick thing to be noted: the original build B58 had the 6-exhaust port head (I could literally take a picture of my engine bay to prove this.) TŪ1 brought the headers-in-block arrangement, for efficiency. The engine warms up quicker when the exhaust gasses are heating up the head, improving cold-start emissions. ~The compression ratio is unchanged as well, still 11.0:1. 10.2:1 is the N55 ratio.~ EDIT: I was half-wrong about compression ratio; B58B30M1 (335hp TÜ, as found in 540i, 740i etc) remain 11.0:1, while B58B30O1 (382hp TÜ found in M340i, M440i etc.) have dropped down to 10.2:1.

BMW Inline 6s are the german 2JZ I see nobody else among the german brands making anything comparable. Update: So far nobody here has any serious issues with them. Ive seen one in the shop because a piston broke apart below the rings due to very bad knocking presumably. It looked like a typical failure you see with too much boost/very bad knocking. Car was tuned to 400hp so excessive boost wasn't the problem. Engine went back together only needing a piston everything else was in great condition. Techs said this engine was significantly beefier and has less wear than the N55 they usually have to patch up 😅

The only off putting thing for me is the fact that they put the timing chain on the back. Meaning changing it is an engine out job. And luckily the I6 timing chains aren’t usually a huge problem in BMW’s but if it DOES ever need to be replaced years down the road, good luck to you

I've noticed alot of famous high-power German engines use diesel engine blocks. The VW VR6 was originally meant to be a diesel engine so it has very thick cylinder liners which is why it can handle so much power and boost stock. B58 is the spiritual successor to the 2JZ and VR6 in my opinion

Time will tell on reliability of these. In the UK they are much rarer than the 4 cylinder petrol and Diesel BMW engines and they tend to cover less miles. What I will say though is that a few have had broken pistons, injector failures and scored bores. They seem reliable in most cases but may not be as bulletproof as many people think. The official long service intervals, single row timing chain and the fact it is mounted at the back of the engine are not a great combination either and that setup has caused issues in the past. Mine is on 53k and going strong but does have the occasional tick and rattles which come and go.

No the B58 is incredibly reliable, one of the only problems is the timing chain placement (not affecting reliability but is tricky to repair) and carbon build up over long periods of time, but there are many solutions to clean the engine. An example of an unreliable BMW is the N54. The N54 itself is a brilliant engine, but the auxiliary parts such as the high pressure fuel pump let it down. Replacing all these faulty parts will make an N54 very reliable. Other unreliable BMWs include the N47, early N20s, and the N62/N63. These are naturally unreliable engines.

@@VisioRacer Papadakis Racing has a full teardown video of the engine. The can wheels are at the back of the engine, which makes the simple task of changing camshafts very complicated requiring engine removal just to get better camshafts. The variable lift system is very complicated to remove. The intake manifold is PLASTIC. The oil filter housing is PLASTIC. The thermostat housing is PLASTIC and computer controlled for no reason, overcomplicating a proven system with electronic control. Also, if you desire to have a normal thermostat system, the computer in the car will not allow the far to function due to the computer controlled thermostat. The valve cover is PLASTIC. All that plastic around heat and pressure is asking for fatigue and deformation causing leaks and poor sealing, asking for low oil pressure, not something I want for a 80k dollar Supra. The internal exhaust manifold eliminated the possibility for exhaust porting for better power. The engine does not fit on a basic engine stand that can hold 99% of all engines making it a neusance to work on even outside of the car. Spark plug holes are very very small, making replacement another neusance. The connecting rod caps are cracked for a more exact fit on the crank, which in my opinion is less accurate than a simple ground or machined finish on the rod caps. The cylinder head has a very high part count in order to achieve the variable valve lift, much more complicated system than the 2JZ as well with a direct cam on shimmed bucket system instead of the finger follower system. When Papadakis rebuilt the B58 for high power, the intake manifold was changed to aluminum for better strength, so the argument of plastic used as stock for better weight holds no value. Let me know if you have any questions.

I own a 2020 supra 3.0 & I can confirm it does burn oil fast. A friend of mine also has the same problem with his supra. Many German performance engine loves to burn oil. Keep a quart or 2 of oil somewhere in the car so when the low engine oil warning comes on just top it off.

Trust me, the B58 will be about as effective as the B-58 bomber. Fast for a short time, but NOTHING BUT TROUBLE in the end~

@@derekj.tejeda267 There are quite a few independent foreign car shops that simply will not touch a BMW because they are so much trouble to work on, and customers invariably take out their aggravation on the shop, blaming the mechanics instead of the excessive complexity and poor engineering. Don't get me wrong, I like BMW's, but I would only lease one. I'd NEVER own a contemporary BMW.
