  • Gem autos were gracious enough to lend me this 2013 bmw 528i. In the land of bmw the inline 6 3L engine is a legend. It is hard to replace it, but is the 2.0l turbo on par or better than the powerhouse?
    Hakman tests out the 528i to see if it really is or was a step in the right direction for bmw, and it's consumers.
    Check out Gem autos if you are looking for a Gem of a deal.

      Thank you for sharing your experience. German cars used to have a bad reputation of being unreliable, but it has changed alot in the last decade. Always good to see comments like yours since you had yours long term, and is running strong :)

    I own a 2013 528i RWD and it is my first car, i got it at around 70k miles n now it has 126k miles after 3 years of hard driving, honeslty love the car id highly recommend it, do ur research on the motor before purchasing one and def get a pre purchase inspection, timing chains are a big factor when buying these cars, but out of all the n20 motors ive seen in all my friends cars, havent seen em fail. Dumb things will go bad over time like the parking brake actuator, or the comfort access, but its never been a super expensive repair... id highly recommend it to people as a good daily. Drives so smooth n saves so much gas

    • @halfasskrew
      @halfasskrew  2 роки тому +1

      The interior debate has always been more of a personal preference when it came down to Audi, BMW, and Mercedes. They all have their pros and cons, but if you like one you might not like the other.

    I see the cup holder next to the shift. is the stick in the way to grab it? and most importantly what's in the tim's cup?
    its the little things.. eh

    • @halfasskrew
      @halfasskrew  2 роки тому +1

      I will answer your most important question first. It is liquid fuel aka coffee for my reviews from #timhortons
      The shifter doesn't really intervene when you go to grab the cup. Usually cup holders are the first thing i like to hate on when i sit in the car lol

    For sure 3.0 inline 6 cylyndir is much more beter smooth and comfortable than 2.0 turbo

    • @halfasskrew
      @halfasskrew  Рік тому +2

      Agreed. The linear power the 3.0 inline 6 pumped out in the low revs all the way to redline was much more enjoyable. These engines will surely be missed since most manufacturers have moved to 4 cyl turbos

    Don't fool yourself, the in-line 4 is just not satisfying for a big heavy car as the 5-series. The 5 series need the 6 cylinder in-line, the engine the car was designed for

    • @halfasskrew
      @halfasskrew  Рік тому

      Agree with your sentiment for 6 cylinder for the bmw 5 series. Personally, I'm a big fan of the inline 6, but the push towards smaller engines and EV has left us with limited options.

  • @Scotford_Maconochie
    @Scotford_Maconochie 10 місяців тому

    The F10 528i 2.0T (N20) engine is more power dense than the 535i 3.0T (N55). But the N55 has more tuning potential than the N20. Personally I'd take the 528i with the 3.0 NA over the N20 2.0T

    • @halfasskrew
      @halfasskrew  7 місяців тому

      Agree with you on getting the 3.0 NA over 2.0T. It will always be an engine that is talked about

    Personally the only good thing that came from the E60 5 Series was the M5 with the V10. Again the E60 was the brainchild of Chris Bangle needless to say the E65 7 Series which was a monumental design flop for BMW at the time.

      They all have their pros and cons. But if you like a sportier ride this is definitely a little better.
      But Audi and Mercedes in those years had a better interior
