F30 diesel B47

Original Poster

I'm looking at a B47 F30; the mileages are generally 220k and above, everyone says it's very trouble-free, but if we buy this car at these mileages what would happen to us, and what should we look out for when buying

I've heard it's hard to sell too, but they're really nice cars.

If you properly check things like the oil cooler, oil pump, turbo leaks etc., it's a great engine — sips fuel but leaks a lot.

I'm an n47 owner. Compared to this engine, I understand the chain oil pump gets replaced at higher mileage, or its reliability has been improved. If you're looking at the 18d, its injectors and turbo are different from the 20d's — I wanted to mention this in case you have plans for a tune down the line. For the b47 you're looking at, as long as there's no oil leak or coolant leak and the maintenance has been done properly, I don't think it'll give you trouble.
