Is the 335d a good engine?
After decade of driving Jaguars I made the switch to a 335d xdrive msport 2 years ago as it was one of the few cars on the market which offered good performance, AWD and decent fuel economy. Things I really like about it are the engine which is simply fabulous, the AWD system and the gearbox which is really smooth. I drive a 335d as well and it is a great car, you wouldnt be disappointed. You can easily get over 26mpg in the city and 40 highway if you stay below 85. Theres also the JBD tuner that adds quite a bit of power that makes it perfect. I say go for it!

Does the 335d have the M57?
BMW fitted the first BMW engines for the 335d in the E90/E91/E92 models with the tough M57 block; later F30 and F31 models gained the N57 engine. Both engines offer over 300 horsepower and around 465 lb-ft of torque, yet owners often encounter problems as the cars age. The B57D30B is widely considered the most reliable BMW diesel engine today. It’s a 3. L inline-six with modern technology, a long-lasting timing chain design, and low failure rates. It’s built for high mileage and smooth power delivery, making it perfect for daily use, long trips, and even towing.For UK drivers looking for long-term reliability, the M57 engine often comes out on top. However, the N57 offers modern efficiency improvements if you prefer newer BMW models.
How long does a 335d engine last?
You may get 250+K miles out of a diesel engine but everything else will break down with the high mileage number. I purchased a 335d because I put a lot of miles on a car too. The engine/turbo combo hasn’t been around long enough to have solid numbers but I plan to drive mine for 500k. A well-maintained diesel truck commonly lasts 300,000 to 500,000 miles, and many run beyond that when service intervals, injectors, and the cooling system are kept in check. Some commercial diesel engines reach higher numbers, but light-duty pickups typically fall in the 300k to 500k range under normal use.
