    The E46; a legendary BMW!

    Great video man, enjoyed the video quality.
    Pretty decent fuel consumption, the E46 is just one special car alongside the E39(in my opinion).
    Haha I actually stay in that complex, here in JHB.

    Last year (Jan 2020) I did a similar undertaking, from CT (Sea point) to Soweto. I had bought my second e46 M54B22. Simply a splendid experience. :-)

    That long trip reminds me of the journeys that I made from California to Texas. Mine was a little over 21 hours with a 1994 Dodge Intrepid that had almost 200,000 miles (or about 321,900 kms) on the odometer. I did that 4 times. It was fun.
    Side note: Your guy's roads seem to be in almost pretty damn good condition! I'm sure there are some exceptions, but still.

      Thanks for watching, I love doing these road trip videos and yes our roads are pretty good which is why the toll road fees are fairly high

    Nice video! I did a trip from my home in Albuquerque, New Mexico to Jacksonville, Florida in a 2002 BMW M3 with a super charger. Two day trip and I was able to get a good 155 MPH out of that car on some stretches of road. I sold it but I sure miss it. LOL

    I'm looking to go to a 320d from my E46 318i. Bought her from a scrap yard and built her to perfection in a year, but I want that extra bit of torque and that fuel economy now that I've learnt what I should look out for.
    You've convinced me that diesel is the way to go on this car.

    At 8mins 10 seconds I would not follow a truck from behind while it is over taking another truck. You can end up in a accident.

    @vroompaa you car was not coming up to temp, normally when the thermostat goes it fails in the open position. Was this the cause of your clutch issue due to cold temps in the gear box?

    • @vroompaa3333
      @vroompaa3333  3 роки тому

      Hi.
      No not at all because of the clutch
      My thermostat just failed in the open position. I replaced it and now it runs great and gets up to temperature

    What fuel consumption do you get in town? Is 15l /100km normal for 318i in town?

      15 does not seem right, we get 10 litres per 100 town driving, i never see 15.

      Not sure bro but definitely have your car scanned with a proper diagnostic tool, there might be a hidden fault.
