Since my last post I've bought and sold 2 E46 320d 6spd manuals. And what great little cars they are! So much so I'm buying another one this weekend (E90 320d 6spd)

All 3 over 200k km with original turbo and only 1 clutch replacement on all of them.

I simply cleaned the intercoolers, boost sensor, map sensor, major service them and they purr and pull like new. Remarkable cars. Definitely a fan now.

Mine is on 75000, point of no return has passed, guess I am keeping her for a daily. No major mechanical problems to report the N47 is rock solid - until she gets a few mods thrown her way :fencelook:

I'm sitting on 156000km.

I just did a Durban trip, averaged 5.5 going down and 5.3 coming back!
I've done 16 000km since I got her, no service lights have come on but I'm taking her in to Ross Duncan next week. Rather keep her in good nick than wait for something to happen.

Mine is a 2005 E83 2.0 diesel manual.

I bought it from a mate with 220 000km on and it now has 315 000km.

Original turbo.

Clutch was replaced at about 250 000km.

Transfer case / centre diff was refurbished at 270 000km.

Otherwise just service and tyres.
