Thanks for all the input on the B series!

Sold 3 at my dealer. All 3 blew their transmission within 2 months.

1 had a sunroof issue. The cassette was $7000.


Cheaply built. Expensive to repair. Way better off with a c class or if hatchback that size is your thing, Toyota Matrix / Pontiac Vibe.

Ouch. Did BJBMW provide some sort of a warranty? I'm guessing that's how you know..

Yes we did. Two of the cars, customers bought warranty fortunately.

The 1 that did crap itself we took care of it within our 90 day goodwill policy.

We really don't like those cars. :heckno:

Ooooo 90 day good will policy.

Time to buy the most unreliable car. It's only a small gamble lol

What's the most unreliable car you have on the lot that I could realistically resell within 90 days without too much of a loss?? :lawl:

:lawl: doesnt work that way.

Must resist. :pokerface:


Edit: E mail sent.

LOL damnit!

seems like an ok deal

Cool car, great project potential... but not sure about $6800 :pokerface:


(basically ae86 with chopped wheel base and no twin cam 4AG... )

nm, gone already

What'd we miss?

Early model E90 325i, silvery blueish green, 4dr auto, 160k

This ... it was a 2006, listed for something like $6K-$6500, I forgot the exact price.

Surprised to see others around $7K-$8K on CL.

Is this a problematic generation?

E90 in general has less trouble spots than E46, but is harder to work on since it requires more specialty tools. No control arm bushing issue, subframe, plastic cooling system.

The N54 engine in early 335 is an exception. Initial High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) issues, carbon buildup issues, and at higher mileage, the turbos seem to like to go. They are more popular for tuning since they have forged bottom end and 2 turbos.

I believe that white is a pearl, which would make a repaint more difficult.
Honda bumpers also have the VIN tag on them, so the next buyer would know they've been replaced.

Most concerning is that I don't see that the axles have been replaced. It's a common failure, and I believe it's close to a grand for each side on the 6MT cars as quoted by Lougheed.

I'm really surprised how cheap these go for:

2006, BMW 330i, 4 Dr, 167K, 18" Schnitzer rims, auto, $6800 OBO

dat blue doe. but arent these the biggest PITA? :pokerface:
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/cto/5972611151.html

Indeed they are. Some of the major maintenance items require a partial engine removal. Still love em tho, so pretty

2006 e90 325i with xenon headlights, 160k clean title, original owner bought new, $5750 obo (i think.. or it was $5850 dont remember)


Yes, Nogaro blue on blue b6 s4 6spd is my fav s4 of all. (I like the wagons more tbh)
Timing guide/ Timing job is required at around 150k. The entire motor needs to get dropped because the chains are in the back of the engine. Audi originally designed this way thinking the timing guide will be lifetime. On demand labor hr was like 23hrs or something and thats not including parts :facepalm:

If anyone is in the market for these B6/B7 s4's.. stay FAR away from the ones that make ticking sounds from the engine
Fav car I'd never own.. wut

Here are two, not in that blue though, both listed at $14K:
