The G87 M2 is Here | A Discussion & RANT
After allowing myslef some time to let the all new 2023 BMW G87 M2 sink in, I wanted to make a video discussing my initial impressions, mainly pertaining to the car's exterior design. Once again, BMW has managed to polarize the community in a way many never thought was possible before. Are the days of BMW's elegant styling behind us? It certainly seems so.

    I can't figure out how to drop front strut down and pull out towards me to remove springs . Mine drops down and the strut won't clear wheel well nor does the rotor feel like it's leani g out enough to get acess to remove and put in new spring. I'm stuck right now. Put everything back together. Does xdrive make a difference in install process? I'm following every step

    I’ve owned 4 N52 BMW’s This video taught me some more things I didn’t know! I had a 07 BMW X3 3.0si (N52B30)… when I purchased the car it had 167,000 miles, Needed to do spark plugs and a valve cover gasket. I had it all the way until 182K miles and it was totaled. The Valvetronic Motor is another common fault point. This occurred on my second 07 X3 With 192,000 miles. The valvetronic motor failed. Same with my 09 328i X-Drive With 178,000 miles. What happens is the valvetronic motor fails and oil will start to seep out of the worn gasket, then fill into your cylinders. That turns the crankshaft and you’ll develop a misfire & Reduced engine power. My went into limp mode. Easy repair. Takes an hour if you know what you’re doing. Other than oil leaks and those pesky Vanos Solonoids the N52 is a fantastic motor! Easy to work on, Cheap parts, Efficient and reliable and somewhat powerful! I’ve had pretty good experiences with my 4 BMW’s that have had the N52 Inline 6 Motor! They all made it past 170K miles! Pretty impressive for your average German saloon.

    I had an e46 m3 for 4 years and hated the sound. Ive had my F83 non-comp for almost a month and i love it. Bare with me.. In efficient mode, after the cold start, it's nearly silent. Easy to live with, comfortable to drive, not offensive to others. In Sport/Sport+ mode and the valves open it sounds like a proper sports car and, being a non-comp, has none of the obnoxious pops and bangs. It's not as loud as my e46 was, even in sport and doesn’t sound like a hornets nest is living in my midpipes. Also, gonna be controversial here. The 2JZ isn't a special sounding engine whatsoever. Using that as a template isn't really very indicative of a good sounding inline 6. Tbf, most turbos sound a bit meh. A good inline 6 NA is something like an older Jag or TVR with nearer 4L than 3L

    @andrewthompson6893 24 дні тому

    I respect you as a presenter, and the research you've done, but it's Toretto Brian, it always has been. It's the second turbo, end of story. Evidence of this can be found it the thousands of equal-length DP's with every configuration of exhaust you can imagine that are unsuccessful at fixing the sound. Unsuccessful. Period. The only way to combat the sound is to remove a turbo, and it's a non-negotiable position. BMW themselves can't fix the issue because it literally can't be fixed with 2 turbo's attached to the car. Mitigating it to a 30-45% more pleasing tone with the ELM's is a great idea IMO, but it can never make it sound as good as a base N55 to most ears. It's unfortunate, it's why I chose the OG M2 over the Comp, but the chassis is just fine with 450/490, so all is well.
