Mercedes and JLR designed and started manufacturing their own in line six petrol and diesel engines not long ago. In line six is just a much better engine than V6, Its naturally balanced, has stronger crankshaft, its less complicated and cheaper to manufacture. What more do you need... It is well known in bmw community that B58 and S58 are superior engines to their predecessors. B58 has forged crankshaft and close deck design unlike N55. Carbon buildup is not an issue on B58 anymore so why would it be on S58 if they share injection system with B58 TU. Other than that, unlike N55 and S55, there is not a lot common parts between B58 and S58, those engines share only about 15% parts. Even bore and stroke is different. Superiority of B58 and S58 comparing to older versions is clear like a night and day. They run smoother, no carbon issues, no crank hub issues, better economy, more tunable, more reliable. Top version of S58 has 550hp from factory but close to 600 on the dyno. Top version of S55 had 500hp and water injection was necessary to achieve that.
@Eddie Niems True. But the S55 (M3/4) is almost based on the N54 in terms of forged internals and going back to the twin turbo setup. The improvement was the cooling, of which heat soak is always a problem on the n54. I personally know more than 5 people in my circle who've had catastrophic block failures on tuned n55, and none on n54, including me. So i guess you're right, stock for stock, the N55 would in terms of efficiency. But in terms of strength, especially when we start tuning, personally I would choose n54, B58 or S55. I would go no where near n55.
I would argue the B58 is more of a "modern 2JZ" than the S58. The S58 is more of a Honda type R engine that's been in the gym for 4 months on trenbolone, and now uses meth daily since going under a hood.

@@Dustrunnersauto it was named the engine of the year in 2008! I haven’t seen any of this engines with either timing issue or bearing issues unless they were abused.

Well, of course the “carbon build up issue” only happens in America. BMWs are ultimately designed to be /normally/ driven in Germany, which is their first market.
How does that have anything to do with carbon build up? Carbon build up is a common issue with all direct injected engines. That's why companies like Ford and Toyota are now using both port and direct injection
@@4sake123 Carbon build quickly goes quickly away if you don't drive the car like your grandmother. That's the issue in America in general. Normal cruise speeds in Europe are higher, particularly in Germany. Same benefits with particle filters
It's blown out of proportion by companies looking to sell their products. Sure, it happens sometimes. But, if you break down the amount of S55 engines that have experienced this failure as compared to the amount of crank hub kits that have been sold, it's clearly not nearly as big of an issue as it's made out to be. It's the exact same crankhub as the N55, but you don't see everyone freaking out over their N55 crankhubs do you? The failure is related to the extra power, mechanically driven water pump increasing load on the crankhub, and the more aggressive shifts on the S55 DCT vs the N55 DCT.

@@tigeralpha1480 G82 is AWD so it can get way better launches and handling than F82
@@yg78t76t7 yea true but to me personally it s not such a big advantage. The awd system makes the car feel heavier and you don’t really need it unless you live somewhere with really bad weather. Rwd cars are more fun. And yes I know the awd system send the power to the rear wheels fully but it s not as pure to me. Again, just my opinion. When I think of a Bmw i don t think of it as awd, especially the driving oriented bmw s such as the m2, m3 and m4. It s not all about lap times
@@tigeralpha1480 Maybe they ARE 10 years old, like everything else, kids have different taste, they grown up with different influence, so it's totally normal that they prefer things we don't. and honestly, G8x has bigger target market, not everyone see the "harsh" driving texture as pleasure, the G8x got those buyers who seek comfort and luxury into the owner group.
B58 better then both of them.
No its not. The s55 and s58 are both better than the b58. Youve been listening to too much b58 propoganda
@@liamlindsay1458 idk about the s58 but the b58 is better then the s55
S55 handles can handle 800 stock internals. B58 does not, get of b58 dick. S58 is better than both
@@austinweippert4065can you name whats better in b58 over s55?
N54 is a great and reliable Engine. Unless some dumb head starts to abuse it without oil change. It was more reliable than any turbo charged engines of its own time.
Not even close.
@@Dustrunnersauto it was named the engine of the year in 2008! I haven’t seen any of this engines with either timing issue or bearing issues unless they were abused. They has some accessory issues with fuel/water pumps which wasn’t cheap to replace but overall structure of the engine is well built for mass production!
@@aslanmammadov2230 n54 is absolute dogshit for reliability. HPFP, injectors leaking, bearings failing, cam ledge's getting chewed apart, turbos rattling and failing, MSD 80's blowing mosfets, water pumps that shit the bed every 50k, everything about that engine needs upgrading just to keep it on the road. i had a 335i n54, worst car ive ever owned in 15 years for reliability.
@@zorn3226 these are mostly accessories that can be replaced. Water pump is most common one but the turbos last at least 100k and more same for the fuel pump. If you keep up with oil changes with quality oil and filter these parts can last even longer. I’ve owned 1,3,5,7 series with N54 and they were all fun cars and never had major issues
I think this video must be upgrade...
Well, of course the “carbon build up issue” only happens in America. BMWs are ultimately designed to be /normally/ driven in Germany, which is their first market.
How does that have anything to do with carbon build up? Carbon build up is a common issue with all direct injected engines. That's why companies like Ford and Toyota are now using both port and direct injection
@@4sake123 Carbon build quickly goes quickly away if you don't drive the car like your grandmother. That's the issue in America in general. Normal cruise speeds in Europe are higher, particularly in Germany. Same benefits with particle filters
Crank hub issue on the s55 is a real thing my friend please correct yourself and stop misleading people
It's blown out of proportion by companies looking to sell their products. Sure, it happens sometimes. But, if you break down the amount of S55 engines that have experienced this failure as compared to the amount of crank hub kits that have been sold, it's clearly not nearly as big of an issue as it's made out to be.
It's the exact same crankhub as the N55, but you don't see everyone freaking out over their N55 crankhubs do you? The failure is related to the extra power, mechanically driven water pump increasing load on the crankhub, and the more aggressive shifts on the S55 DCT vs the N55 DCT.
Mercedes is moving back to I6.
Not really. It's only in a couplemodels. They seem to like the idea of a 4 popers. Although mazda is developing an inline 6.
@@mrwhips3623 The new engine is the M256, which is replacing the M276, which was in a lot of models. The M256 was / will be available in the S 450, CLS 450, AMG GT 43, GLE 450, GLS 450, E 450, S 450, S 580 e, S 500, E 53, CLS 53, AMG GT 53, GLE 53 and Aston Martin DBX. Hardly a couple of models.
Merc still uses i6
In 2ton suvs 🤣🤡
B58.
Nope
Did you even watch the video. The s58 is a better engine all round. Dam the s55 is better than b58.
2jz junk...idk y its held to such high standard...only thing great about it is its rigidity besides tht its a junk motor tht...inefficient p.o.c lol
