Even when you take a look at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_B58 there is no word about 286PS version in 45e.
Any thoughts? |
Some parts have changed (stronger) to accommodate to accelerations with a cold engine. And probably they downturned
The engine for the same reason. I don't know about the turbo.
I found out this weekend that if I put my car is sport directly after turning it on, it is at working temperature after 2 minutes. Is this as fast as an fuel only car? Or is an supplemental heater heating up the oil faster?
