Speaking of car engine burning oil, presumably many car owners are smelling discolored.
As we all know, the engine is equivalent to the heart of the car, and the role of the oil is to lubricate the working heart, which is like human anemia, when the engine lacks a sufficient amount of oil to lubricate when it is running, then its work efficiency will seriously decline, and more seriously it may also lead to engine scrapping.
When it comes to the problem of engine burning oil, I think many people will first think of Audi and the second-generation EA888 engine, which is really the label of burning oil in the industry. However, people who understand the car know that Audi, as one of the brands in the BBA camp, burning engine oil is not its "patent", but other brands use some skills to cover up this problem, after all, with the violent squeezing of engine power, coupled with a series of direct injection technologies, including Japanese brands, there will be problems with burning oil.
And the protagonist we want to talk about today is naturally not Audi, but BMW bmw in the same BBA camp!
As we all know, the recent problem of serious oil burning in BMW engines can be described as a boiling fire. In particular, as a new generation of BMW B48TU engine models, such as the first batch of BMW 3 Series sedans, a large number of BMW car owners have recently complained that the engine has seriously burned oil.
Unlike the probability problem of Audi burning engine oil, BMW B48TU has been hammered by many industry authorities: it is a universal problem caused by quality defects! Everyone must take a closer look, BMW B48TU engine burning oil is a common problem, so the current owner of the problem does not have a fluke mentality, to seize the time to contact the BMW 4S store around to solve the problem, after all, the current BMW does not have the intention of recall.
Speaking of which, I believe many people will ask what is the reason for the BMW B48TU engine to burn oil.
According to authoritative information given by industry insiders, the BMW B48TU oil burning problem is mainly due to the design defects of the engine oil and gas separator, and the part is also located on the engine valve compartment cover. It is worth mentioning that as more and more BMW 3 Series owners report the problem of burning oil, we also found that the spark plug burning oil phenomenon of the engine's one and two cylinders is more serious than the position of the other two cylinders, so in addition to the problem of the oil and gas separator, there may be other design defects in the entire valve chamber cover.
In the face of such a serious problem of burning engine oil, how does BMW, as a first-line luxury brand, treat Chinese users?
The solution is to add more oil to cover up the oil burning problem of the engine!
To know that in the factory manual of the BMW B48TU engine, the official standard for the oil capacity of the engine is 5.25L, and there are already a lot of car owners in the maintenance, found that the 4S store added 5.75L oil or even more! It is worth mentioning that this behavior is only aimed at users in the Chinese market, and BMW officials will not recognize this kind of ear-covering behavior at present.
Hero Car Talk: Of course, the model equipped with the B48TU engine is not only the BMW 3 Series, but also the 5 Series, X3 and other models, but the first batch of the 3 Series and the sales volume is very high, so in the near future will break out such a large-scale owner rights protection incident, as for other models is only a matter of time. So in the context of the upcoming listing of the domestic BMW X5, the BMW brand has broken out such a serious engine burning oil problem, and has not yet given a way to completely solve the problem, I think you should consider it when buying a domestic BMW X5, after all, it is also possible to carry this engine!
