The three-cylinder BMW B38 petrol engines with a capacity of 1.2 and 1.5 liters belong to the company’s modular series of power units and have been manufactured since 2013. They are installed on BMW models with front-rear wheel drive, as well as on hybrid versions of BMW i8 cars. In addition, engines of this family are also used on MINI cars.
1. Wear of the crankshaft support bearing
In early versions of the engine by 2015, there was excessive axial clearance, leading to the destruction of the bearing already at 50,000 km. After 2015, the design was updated.
2. Cracks in the exhaust manifold
The manifold is made of aluminum and is part of the turbine housing. Due to overheating, it cracks, which causes a leak of coolant.
3. Floating idle speed
As in all direct injection engines, the valves become contaminated with carbon deposits, which leads to unstable engine operation.
4. BMW B38 engine life
The declared life is 200,000 km, but in practice, with high-quality maintenance, these engines can last up to 300,000 km.
