Wanted E90 330d

The new electric turbos are extremely reliable

Electric turbos?

Electric actuated vs vacuum actuated

 

[DieselFan]

Andy what's more reliable with them? I mean it's the same turbo but the actuator arm is controlled electronically and not by vacuum..?

 

[Andy1GP]

Newer serial numbers come with slightly improved impeller designs. With most things carrying a newer revision there is an improvement.

Housings remain the same but the internals differ.

Likewise the e90 injectors are superior to the e46 ones ITO making power.

 

[Andy1GP]

Not necessarily more reliable. Also I can add from personal experience the e46 diesels are more economical than the e90 diesels. Stock for stock and mod for mod.

I dont know how but on the same routes, conditions and me as driver I keep getting the same result.

It could be that the e46 is more aerodynamic?
