My best friend bought himself a 6 month old F31 BMW 340i Touring, we took it to Motech Performance to get a Remus back box fitted and some Eibach lowing springs and spacers fitted.

Is this the best almost new all round package for less than £30k, what would you buy?
jep i love the 340i: :D
340i😍
New 540i is much better value at around 26k second hand
Seat Leon Cupra ST 4x4 2019 was what I ended up getting, ex demo 3000 miles and 24grand 7 months ago. I started looking at Bmw 340i as I know they are a nice quick car. Its just something about the look of the car which to me is boring, a bit like the Golf R Estate. Mr Achilles. Is Bmw 340i a lot better than the car I ended up with? I did want M3 but that was closer to 30 grand and 3 yrs old. I do have a e46 m3 for a bit of rear wheel drive fun so wanted to try 4wheel drive and its good fun too.
It is a great looking car, and a lot of kit/performance and space for that money for sure.
The touring models really benefit from the ARB’s being upgraded. Huge difference, relatively low cost.
I was trying to think how much cooler a family car this is, compared to an SUV... didn’t stop before I reached infinity! Congrats on being one of the coolest dads on the block to Scot!
Just bought a 535d, great for the kids and plenty fast!
You weren't wrong! 340i tourings are hard to come by here in the uk and as of Jan 2021 sellers are asking same money as I paid in early 2019 for my 1 year old car.. 😯
I love my 2015 f31, I’m at 187 000km, perfect daily driver. If I had more money I would buy the cleanest 2019 f31 I can find, and store it for the future.
Tiny little mods that make all the difference!
They really do mate 👊
Love that your mate is modding a touring...
Love the 340i touring, looks great with some subtle mods 👍🏻
Subtle yet impacting modification on this lovely Touring BMW (no SUV, Yes!).
It would have been good to get the price, or at least an idea of the price, for the different upgrades.
I was looking at used F31 340i (and 330d) recently, as if you had read my mind, to me they offer a great package and in Germany here for a decent one can be bought for less than €35k, the GT is even a bit cheaper
Haha awesome! Love them 👌
Miss our '14 F31 M Sport xDrive....although with the 4 cylinder turbo, it was practical and fun to drive. Ours was also Glacier Silver but with Coral Red leather. However...we gave it back at lease-end. Too bad the Touring is no longer available in the U.S.
Good for him for not getting an SUV. Long live wagons/touring/estates!
I've just booked in for exactly this upgrade from Motech. And it's £200 less than their competitors South of London.
Yeah those are great cars! I’m not the biggest BMW guy but always loved the F30/F31 340i. Very affordable, here in Germany there were a lot of them in the Sixt rental fleet, so market is very well saturated.., still, a bit too expensive for a 19 year old bloke :D
More of these please Joe and Mike. Excellent 🙌🏻🙌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Chris Preston 😉😉
Another good video Joe lot of car and practical 8 weeks in with M2 and a smile every day ...keep up the good work Dwag 👍
That B58 is Amazing 👍🏻 Motech definitely are the lads to get your car looking/Sounding better 😎 you might need to change your insurance company as BMW,DIRECT LINE & a Few others will start Crying 🙄 Joe mentioned Adrian Flux who were great & insured me no problem 😁 great looking car though & Possibly my next Car 🤔
After watch the whole video I had to edit : definitely go for the Motech Res Delete as it sounds three times deeper 👍🏻😎
Lovely transformation on appearance, stance and sound..perfect Q-car! Great review.
Interested about what happens to the warranty if doing this to a 19 plate? Looking forward to the prices dropping equally on the F36 once the new one is out. Can argue the boot space with the hatch is almost as useful as a F31 for most applications.
The M Performance Exhaust with the Sound Kit tune sounds much better imo to be honest.
I am honestly sad that we don't get this in South Africa. I really love this car. 😩
Not to be off topic but... I know you had the M2 and now the M2 Competition. Do you like the Competition much better overall? Miss he exhaust note of the M2?
Thanks in advance - you have the most vids on the M2. Nice work👍
Be happy with a 335d f31 put a 316d badge on back and fit a larger intercooler/downpipe change and remap
MrAaronb400 love this comment
I can also highly recommend KW street comfort coiloverr for a daily driven F20/30, still handles well and is very planted but with a lot of comfort
BMW have ruined the 1 series!
It’s so crazy using that proxy 2.0 litre. At least Porsche have seen the light.
M340i is definitely on my radar (new model).
But it drives very good, trust me
Very nice. I have a 440i coupe with MSPPK. It makes a lovely sound, especially now it has done 8000 miles. I like the drop in the suspension, however a bit concerned about the impact on the warranty.
Can’t get my head around wanting a noisy exhaust. Maybe I’m missing something? I had my D3 soundproofed, as the serenity at full chat is unreal as the AudioFile digitalised music just fills the cabin with clarity. Take from me that’s what I want to hear. But what do I know.
Yup, if i had to drive around in a D3 i would surely want it soundproofed. And muffled.
So you are right.
A 340i needs a freed up exhaust. And the radio turned off.
So everybody is right, depending on own situation. 😉
mmmhmm love that b58 sound
Same, love my 335d it’s a torque weapon!
Perfect wagon, i wish they came to Australia!!
If they did those tips for M140i instead of the dustbins they come with id definitely consider that rear box.
Somehow that M135i from motech looks wicked!
Brian Ferreira 🏆
you ok Joe?....no t-shirt, no Audi😉🤣😂...cracking car that, love a Touring👍
Haha good point! Don't worry Audi will be back next week 😂
Have also got a silver F31 340i with the same seat protector in the back for the kids :)
Mine is a 2016 version with over 60K on the clock now, with the last 10K being on a Bootmod3 stage 1 remap. Makes a big difference!! Was also thinking about a Remus axle back, but like you say in the video, the older ones are already louder than the later 2018/9 releases so have been holding back on that.
Next upgrades for me, are brakes! Whilst the standard blue M-Performance brakes are good for day-2-day use, they are hopeless on a track day. Thinking of going down the EBC route as I've had a really good experience with them in a previous car. Thoughts of EBC on the BMW 340i please.
#MakeBMWGreatAgain
Great mods !! Glad Scott is happy 🙌🏼
I'm tempted for springs and this back box will you do me a deal if I travel up from Brighton
Chrissy Jr. free coffee 😉
I thought the new 1 series looked shit but damm that white one in the background looks nice.
Think the suspension mods were very impressive, maybe in person the exhaust was loads better, but from the video I would have hoped for a bit more, maybe it needs more of the system doing? Understand its mostly a sensible family car though so may not want more raunch.
Stu that’s why we also offer the res delete too , only so much a rear box can do
Motech Performance does it then retain its switchable feature if that work is carried out?
Stu yep 👍👍
Can't beat a Touring. Love my E61 530i.
Very rare E61 530i ... there's only diesels in the used market ://
Nice video! With this exhaust upgrade, can you hear inside the cabin burbles/crackles when you lift throttle/downshift?
Proper family wagon!
Beautiful machine👌🏽
Wait does the exhaust sound change on every bmw with the valve setting when u turn traction controll off?
Lovely motor the 340i, just posted performance of it on my UA-cam
Great Video 👏👏👌🏻👍
Hi Joe, I live in Florida, USA and i'm trying to get a kit of those springs. I'll pay all charges. Can you help me with that?
Cesar Taveras I’ve been on Dinan Springs/bump stops for about a year & half. Super comfortable ride and looks great in my 2018 340i M-Sport. You can check my 340i on IG @brolin_F30_b58.
Great looking car now
Could you please recommend any modifications friendly insurance company. I would like to go ahead with springs and spacers but not so sure about insurance cost
Thanks.Great car.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ .. 5 stars Proyect
What're your thoughts on the N55 engine found in the 335i/435i in the F30 gen?
It's interesting to see Remus was chosen for a back box and not the BMW M Performance silencer instead?!?
The 'MPE' is an amazing axle back system with no warranty loss and full OEM looks. Granted it's no MPPSK but as this is a PPF car it cant be added anyway..
The MPE gives my F31 340i a fantastic gunfire sound with the odd loud CRACK when poked too. It's excellent.
MPPSK is next on my list though. ;-)
So are you saying he should have gone for an exhaust that isn't available, sorry I'm confused?
@@JoeAchilles1 No, The M Performance Exhaust (MPE) back box is different from the MPPSK system, and will fit Scotts lurvly F31.
BMW offer 2 option exhaust systems for the 3/440i cars.
1. MPE
2. MPPSK
The BMW M Performance Exhaust (MPE) will fit on pre and post PPF and is just an axle back system. That's what I have currently and it sounds epic while keeping it OEM and in warranty.
The BMW MPPSK is the full valved cat back system with remap, the full bananas, but it cant be installed in post PPF cars. :-(
Part numbers here for anyone interested in the official BMW exhaust options for the 340/440i:
MPE: 18302406953
MPPSK: 11122444531
@@jamesmedlow Wont work on the OPF Cars
@@MotechPerformance Thanks for the info, I was pretty sure the MPE was compatible but the MPPSK wasn't.
The MPE is 'just' a back box so does not delete/change any OPF and requires no mapping, unless the physical pipework is different ??. But I'm happy to stand corrected by the experts. :-)
I'm sure the car my 2nd hand MPE came from was post Jul 2018 too.
In any case... Scott's F31 is a great example. Sounds like it should with the Remus and looks excellent in Glacier Silver.
I'm local to you guys so keen to drop by and talk about the Eibach and spacer combination once this COVID-19 nightmare passes.
Joe- do you know of a company near Hatfield, Herts which could supply and fit spacers to my BMW Touring? Christopher
I have to take issue with your comments about issues with speed bumps Joe. I had a 440i GC from TRL last March that was based on Tony's project car you reviewed. It had the M Sport factory carbon splitter and boot lip spoiler fitted by TRL and my journey home was via Motech to get the Stance pack fitted. The car looks great, and gets a lot of attention. However it is a bugger for grounding out. Speed humps, car park down ramps, any sort of sharp incline in the road, it catches. I end up driving like Miss Daisy over any kind of obstacle much to the annoyance of those behind me I'm sure. I know this is because of the splitter that protrudes a good 20 mm from the front of the car, but I'd think twice about having this fitted if you have a splitter on your car. instagram.com/p/BvRIeRvg2fX/?igshid=1en857j10t8jc
Did you use 12mm spacer all round?
Not having the estate 340i in Canada is a great tragedy
I hate that we can't get this model in the North America.
I owned one of these in shadow black. If I am honest, not impressed with it. Heavy car, not as quick as the 335d Xdrive and I think was an overrated BMW. Using for the dog, no use really, it is not a car for a spaniel dog or Welsh roads or valleys. So I have a Subaru Legacy Blitzen on a 07 plate Estate JDM. Not only is the car better build quality, but it is rare, it is quicker, it has a lot of tech, such as sport+ modes and padel shifts etc, etc. Scoop on the bonnet says to BMW, "My scoop makes me quicker", you follow, haha. Very impressed with my old Subaru Legacy JDM, it is rare, looks good, can go offroad, can drive in snow, rain, etc, etc and actually you are not going to pull away in a BMW 340i and certainly not a 330d or 335d, yet at just 280BHP the Scubie just pulls and drives better.
Newer cars are a bit overrated. What I did like about my shadow 340i touring was the HUD was brilliant, prof media too and it was a handsom car, just no good for a dog, wet, snow or any kind of slight offroad, countryside. So it is a towny car for shopping and small dogs that people carry in handbags and stuff like that.
If you delete OPF will it fail MOT?
Harry Gray Yh but u can go to dodgy mot station to get pass
Audi RS haha what a idiotic reply
Yes
@@MrRenobarbican the type of man who eats he's dinner on the window seal
Grass!
Whats the deal with this motec? Anyone can by parts and bolt them on
How much for the Remus axle back?
Peter benn pan drop us an e mail bud , all down to tips you choose , info@motechperformance.co.uk
About time lol.
Always see the boring F31 335d😴😴😴
looked and sounded better on the original factory system, modding cars is stupid
Great to hear your opinion, you now know to keep your 340i Touring standard 👋 Hope you have a lovely week Hali ❤️
Joe great video, but how do these mods affect warranty/ insurance? I don't seen to be able to do anything with my '19' plate F30. just had the hard wire for the BMW Dash Cam moved to my i3s. Cost me £1,298 just to have the wire swapped from the F30 to the i3s to protect the warranty. When I challenged BMW said they had to route them through the wiring loom as this is what customers expect to avoid any squeaks and rattles when installed. I did check that I wasn't wearing my clown's costume at the time. Surly any changes like exhausts must void the BMW warranty?
You paid how much hahaha
@@breathe_3asy I know, I am trying to see the funny side but BMW are serious. They just want the money. Customer satisfaction! 'well we'll worry about that later'. Much much later
What color is that?
black
wtf happened to the steering wheel
The steering wheel?
Joe Achilles it’s at the wrong side of the car ?
😂
Can anybody tell me why BMW do not make an Xdrive 340i?
ua-cam.com/video/dT7X2ozvszo/v-deo.html
Tempting albeit so much is at this money
I fort all 340i was xdrive that rwd
Beware from n47 engines
This has a B58?
Do you still work as a chauffeur Joe?
Yes mate, work is dead though unfortunately
Its not 4wd and in wet /Greasy roads they cannot effectivly get their power down ,quattros make mincemeat of them,xdrive all the way or I wouldn’t buy
340i isnt even anything major.
335d x drive much better buy than this buy far
Okay then
