You are wrong. You have not had a 330e ever. The engine is cold yes, but when it is started in the first few miles the electric motor helps for it. So it never gets the full load. The car take care of engine.
I'm going to buy my first bmw, 330e tomorrow. These kind of videos really help alot!
Congrats! Have Fun with the car. Glad you enjoyed the video
@@AJDrives Thank you! I really like the car, it feels powerfull and it handles really nice.
Hello! I have the same car and i found out you can turn the engine on by tapping the gas pedal while you're in park. It doesn't matter which drive mode you're in. The engine will stay on even if you open the door. The first time you tap it, the car engine will turn on then turn off after a few minutes but if you open the door and step out (just like you did in the video), it assumes you want the engine continuously running.
Hope that helps! Not sure if my car is any different - I'm in North America!
Thanks for the info! I'll make sure to give your tip a try
I've had the '18 330e with M Sport package for about a year now and I love it but the 14 mi battery range makes we want to get a newer year ('22 has 23 mi battery range). I've also experienced another common issue with the gas tank not releasing if you're under 1/2 a tank and haven't been running the engine prior to filling up. From the comments here I learned how to keep the engine running while getting out of the car, thanks for the tip!
Thanks for sharing!
thank you so much , till now i did not understand why my brakes feel so weird 👍
I just got an F30 330e M sport package last week. Solid beautiful car so planted on motorway at high speed. Harman kardon sound is just awesome. Loving it every bit
Congrats! It's an amazing car 👌🏼
I have the x3 30e. no way these things are so annoying. Drive a Renault or a Peugeot for a bit, you'll be crying to get this 330e back.
how is maintenance cost? I heard run flat tire is epensive, any other expensive cost for drinving 330e?
I have black f30 with 658 wheels. Fun to see spinning
is that engine turn on and off sounds while driving goes to all hybrid cars? or this just loud and happens to 330e? thanks
So I got the m sport 330 and put vented discs on it and after market pads and don’t have problem with overheating, there is a problem though with transitions from regen breaking into normal breaks as it’s too harsh. For me the worst thing is my back sits don’t fold down so I can’t get pretty much anything into the boot.
Solid Points 👌🏼
Back heavy but understeers? Is it still rear wheel drive? Something doesn't add up there for me. Interesting video - thanks for sharing your insight!
Why doesn't this add up? Just because it is a RWD car doesn't mean it can't understeer
For point 2, you can press brake and accelerator pedal at the same time before open the door... then you can keep engine running.
Didn't know that! Will make sure to try it out. Thanks!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hi i have bmw 330e f30 also and have this issue when battery is 100% and i have choosed auto edrive car drives only battery after battery is low then starts engine , i want to drive in hybrid mode like both battery and engine what is problem?
put the car in sport as soon as you get out of youre driveway. Sport has the engine running permanently, with rougher shifts(especially at slow speeds).
Exactly!
hello , very good car, it is true that BMW could have provided something to keep or heat the engine or an oil pump that works all the time because starting an engine under full load when cold is disastrous, for that every time I plan a journey longer than the battery life I always warm up before leaving. moreover in cement with the cold (I live in norway) the electric propulsion system only works to launch the car because the battery is too cold to provide the energy so the thermal engine starts almost immediately after 10 km/ h so suddenly I put on the heat before leaving by opening and closing the door to let it quietly heat up for 5 minutes and then I go in manual but automatic mode to avoid the start/stop. and with the cold the autonomy is very low about 15kms with the heating against 27-29 in summer
Thanks for your input! I was actually curious of how the car would be in the Cold. 🙏🏼
Hello there! I have the same car, you are right about these 5 annoying things but overall it is a great car! I am a very happy driver!
Overall it's a great Car! Glad you enjoyed the video
BMW recommends "No need to wait for the engine to warm up" these cars use 0w20 which is can operate at 0 degrees so it's completely safe to start the engine whilst on the motorway. Just do the service between 5k to 8k miles max and use Fuel system cleaner if you jave reached 80k+ miles.
I own this beauty and it runs like a charm!
I own a 330e amd o could not relate more :))! you forgot to mention the 45 liter tank, long jeourny's are very anoying when you fill up so often.
YES! I completely forgot about the tank size, You're absolutely right!
41liters dude
Hi is there anybody who can say why my bmw 16 330e doesn't charge the battery while driving it, only external charging works?
I agree. I have a 330e and I put the shifter in sport when it’s cold to warm the engine . I can’t imagine that it’s good for an engine to cold start during heavy acceleration.
True! It's not good to do heavy acceleration when the engine is cold.
What I do to turn on the engine in park is tap the gas and open and close the door without getting off the car. If you don't open and close the door it'll got back to electric again.
You can have the engine running while being outside as long as the key is inside the car
I did not know that. I'll make sure to give it a try!
What's the performance like when the battery is dead and you're only using petrol?
Like a normal 320i with 180hp
Wrong if u put in neutral open bonnet and engine will stay on all the time in any mode. Car is actually smart. And if u drive in manual mode car will run on pure petrol no hybrid no start stops nothing only gas
All the system problems you could fix with a code
Hey, what do you think of LCI M Sport 320d vs 330e? Appreciate the content 😊
Based on my 3 years of experience with a LCI 520d (Same engine) I'd take the 320d if the diesel sound isn't one of your concerns 🤫
So u rather change a b48 for a 15yearsold diesel engine?
Hi, bro I want to buy 330E M sport f30, is that good car for buy??
Definitely! Which year model are you going for?
@@AJDrives 2018 or 2019, which one you recommend ya?
With a 1 year Gap I'd look more towards the Mileage and Service history of each car rather than the Year Made.
Let me know if there's anything else that YOU don't like about the F30 330e 👇🏼
The engine keeps running if the hood is open either way :)
Didn't know that! Thanks for the tip. Will give it a try
I own a ‘17 330e with 64k miles and a ‘14 420D M-Sport xDrive with 132k miles… I drive the 420D more for a reason. Even though the 330e is my newer car, drives smoother, has more options like HK sound system, 360 camera, and Apple CarPlay I still don’t care to drive it. I bought it after my 420D was paid off thinking I’d sell the 420D privately in the next few weeks but have found myself still driving the 420D at least 4-5 days a week.
Edit: I’d like to add that I will be getting rid of the 330e and 420D once the 330e is paid off so I can trade them both in towards a 2021 M4 or 2023 X3M.
The N47 in the 420d feels great. I had that in my 2014 520d for 3 years and loved it. I'd think i'd like the 330e in traffic over the 420d, but in highways, not really. Good luck on the M4 🤘🏼
I also hate the cabin air intake and window cowl . Wtf it is a miserable and constant chore removing leaves and debris from under the hood . Awful design. The sos button by the sunroof you pop it open all the time . I don’t understand what was wrong with having a little yellow light to come on next to the fuel gauge when it’s low. Why must a yellow triangle of ambiguity appear and the only way to see what it is telling you is buried in multiple menus in iDrive. The unengineered so many aspects of their older cars
Haha! True, Many good points mentioned.
You are wrong. The combustion is sufficient for heating. Your video not accurate at all
If you moan about it why buy one...Every word you say says you are clueless about driving a car
Why did you buy a hybrid? All stuff you hate in this hybrid are precisely the advantages of having one! Btw when the engine quicks on for the first time the car still uses the battery mainly for something like 10 to 20 seconds. This gives the engine some time to warm up (at least a bit). If you decide to rev up the car as soon as the engine starts after a long stop, well you are probably asking for problems. Space and handling are of course not as good as in a "normal" petrol for obvious reasons. This is not a race car. Range is exactly as the manufacturer claims. Of course it will depend on how you drive. Exactly the same as for ICE cars. I have a BMW hybrid and the car does exactly the miles the manufacturer claims.
It's not my car 😅 It's some of the stuff i personally found annoying about this car when I was shopping for cars. So I thought I'd share them. Other than all of that, It's an amazing car that I'd definitely recommend buying
Seems like a terrible car.
It’s not, It’s actually great!
