O on combines the paradoxical. The highest reliability and thoughtfulness of the design, the minimum number of failures, banal strength, and ... the ability to literally absorb cash for its maintenance, exhausting with sophisticated breakdowns. However, first things first.

Rumors and truth about technical similarities between 5 Series and 7 Series

The so-called "F-series" at BMW began with the release of the seventh series model with the F01 body index in 2008. Literally a year later, the 5 Series Gran Turismo came out - the “five” with a hatchback body. And it turned out that in design this car is very close to the seventh series, inheriting the body architecture, electronics and elements air conditioner. At some point there were rumors that this great option buy "almost seven" at the price of the fifth series. But just a year later BMW company has already introduced the fifth series sedans in the back of the F10, on the same platform.

Everything turned out to be simple: just the fifth series technically became the “relative” of the seventh. It was definitely possible to talk about a serious breakthrough in the class. At a time when the main competitor, the company mercedes benz, actually used a stretched lower class platform for the new mid-size sedan, BMW did exactly the opposite. And, of course, seriously won in comfort and handling.

As for the cost of production... The cost price has long been irrelevant to the real sale price, even basic versions. In general, with technical point vision, the victory was already won at the design stage. And despite the earlier appearance, in terms of sales in its class, BMW took the lead by 2013. Yes, and in terms of quality, the car was noticeably ahead of the competitor, surprising with a reduced number of failures in warranty period, despite the extremely complex design with the massive use of mechatronic units.

Even under operating conditions in Russia, the new series of engines and automatic transmissions performed well. And other equipment turned out to be very well designed and executed. However, the miracle did not happen, closer to five years, the complexity of the design is already beginning to affect the cost of operating the machine, and the oldest copies are already “delighting” the owners with an appetite for oil and money. Resource problems begin to appear little by little, starting at the age of three, depending on the attitude of the owner and the style of operation. But even in cars with a turbocharged V8 under the hood, up to this age, almost everything is in order. How "almost", I will try to tell in detail.

Body and interior

BMWs don't rust at that age. Unlike the main competitors, the chances of corrosion even at the age limit are close to zero. And after accidents, rust manifests itself extremely rarely. In the front, there is nothing to rust in the classical sense: the entire front part is made with the extensive use of aluminum and plastic parts. The hood and fenders are made of aluminum, as well as the suspension cups - now they are cast, more durable and have good vibration-damping properties and extremely high rigidity. Almost all other non-load-bearing elements are made of plastic. The doors of the F10 are also mostly aluminum.

The steel body of the car is protected from corrosion by a layer of high-quality paint, and on the bottom and other vulnerable places the body is covered with plastic panels, as well as layers of mastic and sound insulation. The internal cavities are protected by a layer of special foam, and all multilayer elements are double sealed and filled with preservatives.

There are very few potential weaknesses. First of all, this is a drain in rear doors: in lowest point water stagnates and over time the sealant is destroyed, which leads to the appearance of corrosion of the reinforcement bar and surrounding parts that is invisible from the outside at first. The defect was not eliminated by the recall company, and when operating in humid regions, it is recommended to check this point, but it is better to lay a new layer of sealant up to drain hole, removing the "hole" in which water remains.

The drains under the windshield are easily clogged, on cars with a sunroof, water sometimes accumulates in the thresholds, but all these problems at this age usually do not lead to damage to the paintwork. Corrosion occurs on cars after an accident or as a result of being in harsh wet conditions. underground parking for many hours in the presence of damage to the paintwork, but on most cars you simply will not find it.

The absence of problems with aluminum and steel parts of the body separately does not mean that there are no problems at all. In front, the contact area of ​​aluminum parts, steel spars and engine shield requires close attention. The presence of cracks and swelling of the seams in this area indicates too rapid corrosion of aluminum parts in contact with steel. There can be many reasons, from a banal corrosive environment to elements of non-factory fasteners from “wrong” elements, for example, a banal copper-plated tube in a motor shield.

The spars here are steel, so the entire front part cannot fall off, as it used to, but the number of important load-bearing seams is large. And first of all, it is worth checking the lower seam of the junction of the mudguard and the side member, as well as the connections in the area near windshield. Also pay attention to the attachment points of the stretch marks in engine compartment, they are subject to gradual destruction in the first place. The probability of a problem is very small, but if it exists, then it is very difficult to eliminate it. This is a note, including the already established owners of the F10, who are going to ride it for a few more years.

If the car was involved in an accident, restoring the body to its original form is difficult. The manufacturer recommends using the technology of gluing and riveting elements instead of welding steels, since manganese-boron steels are widely used in the body structure, which cannot be welded with high quality under normal conditions.

Pay particular attention to the weld points on the front spars, upper and lower, windshield lower cross member, front body floors and rear roof reinforcements: these parts are made of high strength steel and damage and deformation are difficult to repair even with an unlimited restoration budget.

The body plastic is somewhat less durable: there are a lot of elements, and they break quite easily in cold weather. Cracks on front and rear lights, as well as on the elements of the bottom and wheel arches usually appear at this time of the year. In summer, in the heat, bumpers are able to survive a collision with a parking post and a serious bend without obvious visible damage, even the paint will not be scratched, but in winter a crack in the plastic and breakage of the fasteners is guaranteed.

When buying a car, it is worth inspecting it from below, not in order to look for corrosion, but to make sure that all the decorative elements of the body are in place, because they are very expensive. Consumables include caps for headlight washer nozzles, felt lockers and, for some reason, mounting sensors for parking sensors. More serious “systemic” problems have not yet been identified.

The interior of the car is extremely high quality, but be prepared for the fact that the most the best varieties leather in practice - one of the most unstable to wear. Light nappa leather is especially distinguished.

No other pronounced problems have yet been identified, but on the machines of the first releases, locks, drives of everything, the work of dimming mirrors are gradually moping ... The dashboard begins to “talk”, for example, due to loosened mounting bolts.

On this moment the main "problems" for the owners are the "upgrade" of the previous generation CIC multimedia systems to the "brilliant" NBT and the "glitches" associated with it, and the saturation of the car with "missing options". For example, closing the trunk with a button from the passenger compartment and without holding the button, just with the key, turning off the "start-stop", turning on video from flash drives, separately turning on DRLs and dimensions, starting to show video in motion and much more.

By the way, some are dissatisfied with the regular “two-zone” climate control of the SE configuration, which in practice does not separate the zones enough, but few are already deciding on modernization, the list of works is too long, up to replacing the “stove” body. In general, most of the hassle in the cabin so far goes through the department of "vanity fair", the installation of salons from more expensive and powerful versions, options from "couturier", "individual tailoring" and more. It is still far from really serious age-related problems, while the owners successfully create them for themselves with low-quality alterations.

Electrical and electronics

I am afraid to delve into the details of the features of this part of the machine. Electronics pervades absolutely everything, from suspension to multimedia systems, and so far it works very well. Rare failures and "multi-hundreds of thousands" injections of money when serious failures occur only show that nothing lasts forever, and soon the car will start to have serious expenses in this part.

So far, problems have been observed only with the resource of the generator, battery, as well as with engine compartment wiring and sensors on "hot" turbo engines. A lot of suspension and transmission troubles could be attributed to the problems of the machine's electronics, because all these systems are saturated with it to the eyeballs, but it would be better to talk about them in the appropriate sections. I will only note the limited resource of many purely electrical modules, for example, headlights or lock drives, steering column, trunk and other “necessary” things. However, all this does not break right away, and against the backdrop of the price of the car, the costs are not so great.

Brakes, suspension and steering

There is basically one complaint about the brakes: the resource of pads and discs is frankly small even on cars with two-liter engines. The reason is the active use of brakes by stabilization systems, and the power is rather big. The rest is just a standard.

The suspension is not particularly reliable. By 50 thousand kilometers, the front ones are almost necessarily replaced lower arms and part of the levers of the rear multi-link, shock absorbers are often changed even earlier than this period. Pneumatics on the 5GT at the rear are quite reliable, and for the price, EDC shock absorbers and active DD stabilizers successfully outperform air struts. Moreover, with 18-20-inch wheels, the suspension resource is often limited to a couple of large pits.

In defense of the suspension, we can say that it provides such comfort that many owners do not even try to slow down in front of the pits, mistakenly believing that since the sedan does not lag behind large luxury SUVs in smoothness, the suspension is just as indestructible.

The steering is again all electronic, the rear axle is steered. The system usually works reliably, but any failures lead to serious costs - as a rule, repair prices start at fifty thousand rubles for drives, sensors and work to replace them. To weak points can be attributed to the steering column universal joints, they give a noticeable backlash and knock in motion. Yes, the resource of rods and tips at wide rubber and bad roads often less than 50 thousand kilometers.

Transmission

The transmission mechanics are mostly reliable. Most often fail silent blocks of fastening rear gear on powerful versions. Breaks quickly if skewed cardan shaft. The problem is extremely typical, so if you have a “charged” F10, then you should check the condition of the node at each MOT.

On all-wheel drive vehicles, the “traditional” trouble with the motor and drive connection gearbox front axle, and besides, it is necessary to change the oil in the transfer case frequently. Otherwise, by a hundred thousand kilometers, not the most pleasant sounds from its bearings are provided.

Motor gears have long been learned to change separately from the drive. On machines with powerful units, the resource of the CV joint in front and the universal joint can be less than 50 thousand kilometers. It is recommended to carefully check all the items when buying - their price is less than that of, but still bites.

The eight-speed ZF automatic transmissions of the 8HP45 and 8HP70 series are distinguished by their robust design, the former are designed for gasoline engines and up to 450 Nm of torque, while the latter can withstand all 700 Nm. The design feature is a very high adaptability, due to which the box provides fast and accurate shifts, while maintaining majestic smoothness. But this is if everything is working normally, which is not always the case.

At the automatic transmission of the first releases, the mechatronics unit was noted for a lot of problems, which could not withstand constant overheating and dirty oil approximately 50-80 thousand kilometers. By a run of 90-120 thousand kilometers, shocks often appear for a different reason, and diagnostics show an increase in operating pressure and time for filling the couplings beyond the operating limits, even with good mechatronics. In this case, the box is waiting for repair with the replacement of friction clutches and all sealing elements, and often also with the replacement of the gas turbine engine blocking pad, it works very hard here.

There are frequent cases of failure of the mechanics of the box. So, extremely lightweight planetary gears often do not withstand driving even with small jerks. In general, repairs cannot be delayed here, and the oil should be changed at every second MOT or even after 20 thousand km. The bulk of the automatic transmission on cars after restyling can withstand runs up to 140-180 thousand kilometers without changing the oil, after which it follows inevitable repairs. With a more frequent fluid change, the automatic transmission parameters are noticeably more stable and, by a run of about 100 thousand, they are usually far from critical boundaries. By the way, when changing the oil, the disposable pan, which is structurally combined with the filter, also changes. And damage to the pan and its streaks for this automatic transmission is a common thing, so you need to be especially careful to monitor oil puddles under the car.

Fortunately for buyers secondary market, automatic transmission is perfectly diagnosed by electronics. If you drive the car for at least a few hours before warming up, then the electronics will show a list of the main adaptation parameters, the filling pressure of the clutches A-E and the time for the accelerated filling of the clutches A-E. Ideal adaptation values ​​near zero are almost unattainable, even on new automatic transmissions they are within -10/5. For normal operation of the automatic transmission, it is considered sufficient to have a filling pressure within 150 millibars, and an accelerated filling time within 50 milliseconds.

Most of the shocks are associated with a departure from the norm precisely in the time of accelerated filling and are the result of contamination of the mechatronics, and the adaptation of the filling pressure is mainly responsible for the wear of frictions and seals.

More frequent replacement oil and lowering the temperature in the automatic transmission cooling circuit to 85–90 degrees, judging by the monitoring data, significantly improve the situation even in age boxes with “floated” parameters, and the lower the temperature, the more stable they behave, if the temperature sensors are in good condition, of course, and certainly clean oil. However, a decrease in temperature to 50 degrees and below, on the contrary, leads to a deterioration in the adaptation and operation of the unit.

By the way, contrary to the propagated myth about the high cost of oil for this box, its price is not so high, from 850 rubles per liter of excellent “non-original” and from 1600 rubles for oil in BMW packaging. Considering that it usually takes 7 liters for full shift oils, the event is inexpensive.

Motors

On cars under the age of three, almost all engines behave perfectly: oil appetite from birth is sometimes found, but still this is more the exception than the rule. After two or three years of operation, the oil appetite appears in most naturally aspirated engines and supercharged V8.

Oddly enough, turbocharged units in this regard behave a little better due to lower operating temperature. The oil appetite is especially strong with a “standard” oil change interval of 20 thousand kilometers, which is frankly a lot for urban conditions. By reducing the intervals to 7-10 thousand kilometers, it is possible to postpone the onset of unpleasant symptoms for a noticeably longer mileage, even without replacing oils with more resistant ones (based on esters and PAO) than, and reducing the operating temperatures of the engines.

The main problems of all engines, except for low-powered diesel versions, are similar. First of all, this is the hard work of the cooling system. It is extremely sensitive to radiator contamination, and all its plastic and rubber parts wear out an order of magnitude faster than usual. After three years of operation, constant monitoring of the coolant level and the integrity of the radiators is necessary, they literally fall apart. And this also applies to the radiator of the air conditioner. Additional heatsink the engine in the right wheel arch is already tightly packed by the first year of the car’s service, and by the fifth it usually already has only half a hundred.

Tight packaging and high temperatures in the engine compartment increase the number of wiring and sensor failures in the engine compartment of machines. Of course, the V8s of the N63 series are especially different, with their "successful" arrangement of turbines near the engine shield. They literally fall apart the elements of the cooling system in the collapse of the block, the elements of the ignition and power systems, turbines and catalysts. And the gaskets of the engine itself and the valve seals do not withstand such conditions.

But other motors eventually get the same set of problems in urban operation. Plastic elements lubrication systems require regular replacement and careful monitoring between maintenance. Otherwise, you can "miss" the oil level, and if it starts to fail and electronic sensor oil level, the engine will go to a landfill. By the way, the liners on all new BMW turbo engines lift up easily and naturally. Control of oil pressure and knocks when buying a car is a must.

Problems with regular replacements injectors for all gasoline engines x direct injection, recall campaigns, water hammer and other things are not something unusual for F10 owners. Revocable campaigns do not cause any particular negative, since the service is still premium. And even after the end of the warranty, even serious financial expenses are not a problem for the owners. E83. Diesel engines are also known from other company models, N47D20 and N57D30 in different options put on different cars for many years.

All motors, except for the large V8 N63, can be considered quite reliable on this model. Of course, naturally aspirated "sixes" of later releases and N57 diesel engines are noticeably more reliable than other engines simply because of the debugged and simple design of the first and the features of diesel engines in this series.

A lot has already been written about the difficulties with dampers and an unsuccessful timing on diesel engines of the N47D20 series, but engines of later releases have no frank problems. And the B47 series engines that replaced them in 2014 have become much quieter, equipped with a pressure sensor in the combustion chamber and a little more economical. And while in serious problems not noticed, although their design has undoubtedly become more complex and lighter. Perhaps there is still more to come.

The N20 series turbocharged in-line petrol fours, the most popular for the F10, have not yet been seen in my reviews. This series of engines just replaced naturally aspirated six-cylinder engines. Four-cylinder, all-aluminum, with an advanced crankshaft design with offset axes of rotation of the connecting rod and piston pin, with direct injection and an adjustable oil pump ... These engines provide power and torque higher than the naturally aspirated engines that are designed to replace. And, by the way, they boost perfectly, up to 300–350 hp. with.

Structurally, engines with varying degrees of forcing differ in injection equipment and a piston group with different degrees of compression, but even the weakest ones are successfully boosted to the factory performance of more powerful versions. Not a very large resource piston group and liners, about 150-250 thousand kilometers before the intervention, a small resource of the timing and the oil pump drive chain was also noted. Nevertheless, the motors do not cause any particular problems, as long as the runs are small. Plus, the fact that the design of the unit is well balanced plays a role, and the resource of a number of components, from the electric pump to the timing, ends at the same time. average price restoration - about 300 thousand rubles - does not look like something prohibitive against the background of the residual price of the car, and there are many contract units on the market for an amount two to three times less than the restoration price.

BMW 5 Series F10

The popularity of motors in the table roughly reflects the reasonableness of the choice. Four-cylinder petrol and diesel units have a reasonable cost of restoration and acceptable reliability at the moment. Of the more powerful (and expensive) engines, the diesel hit stands out in the face of the N57 engine, which has a large power range and is very good performance as a resource in general, and reliability.

For the "purists" there are cars with in-line "sixes", with classic traction, sound and character. But with a set of problems of overcomplicated atmospheric engines and, moreover, a very “old” year of manufacture and long runs, which negatively affects the assessment of their reliability.

Summary

The Bavarians wanted to beat the competition and did it. The price in this class does not really matter, slightly more expensive technical solutions pay off many times over. A new approach to building a chassis with the massive use of electronics to provide high performance handling and comfort worked. And the workmanship was sufficient to ensure a small number of failures for at least five years of production.

Of course, the price of restoration is incredibly high, as a result we got one of the most “disposable” cars of our time, but current owners so far everyone likes it. The main thing is to have the means to possess such perfection.

Perhaps it could be emphasized that the fuel consumption of two-liter diesel engines and gasoline engines is simply ridiculous. The average for diesel engines is less than five liters on average, and less than six in the city, while a gasoline turbo engine with real expense 7.5 liters on average in the urban cycle is also a kind of miracle.

But against the backdrop of the cost of operation, this is not so important, and such cars rarely work in a taxi. Even without taking into account breakdowns, maintenance and insurance can take away 400 thousand rubles a year. With the price of each MOT from 25 to 60 thousand rubles, it is somehow silly to consider the cost of fuel. However, the amount of tax is also not so important, especially since the main demand still falls on cars with engines up to 250 hp. with.

When it comes to recommendations, the best possible choice are machines with diesel engines N57 after restyling, with the main problems of new automatic transmissions already eliminated. But by and large, no matter what engine you take this car with, it will still remain a new generation BMW, not cheap to maintain, but in a good configuration giving a completely unrealistic drive. And try to find a car as fresh as possible, with such a complex design, this is even more important than mileage and a set of units. Remember the imminent, inevitable and almost irrevocable, in the case of the BMW F10, the death of units. memento mori.

bmw fifth series - one of the most popular modifications of the Bavarian concern. Quite a lot of time has passed since the appearance of the car in 1972, when the first generation rolled off the assembly line, but the car itself still does not lose its freshness and relevance.

In 2009, the fifth series received a new incarnation and began to be produced in a mass series, as one of the flagship models of the Bavarian car factory. In fact, in 2009, the car was not only “finished”, but completely rethought by BMW engineers. All the most innovative solutions in the field of aerodynamics, engine design, ergonomics, were applied on the basis of the "five" design. Since then, the car has enjoyed consistently high popularity in world markets and holds the lead among the most popular models premium segment.

BMW 5 f10 restyling is an extended line of turbodiesel and gasoline engines with low fuel consumption, a huge amount of horsepower and a decent torque parameter. As for specific changes in the functionality of the car, experienced experts attribute the following restyling improvements to the most noticeable changes:

1. A new form of turn signals in the rear-view mirrors, which are made in an updated exterior;
2. A more rounded shape of the front bumper, which was retrofitted with chrome elements and fog lights;
3. Narrower grille;
4. Less aggressive rear bumper lines;
5. The rims received a little more modification;
6. Optional headlights with factory xenon or diodes are offered;
7. The exhaust pipes took the shape of a rectangle;
8. The model range is supplemented with several updated color schemes.

Meanwhile, the main difference between the products of the Bavarian concern, which has been produced since the mid-2000s, is a large number of electronic controllers and numerous on-board computers who closely monitor stable job almost every aggregate unit in the car.

In addition, all BMW models today are rather complex mechanisms, the basis of which is a computer software. It is in view of this fact that the repair and diagnostics of flagship models, in without fail must be carried out in accordance with the strict technical regulations provided by the manufacturer.

On the one hand, Bavarian engineers have set quite strict limits for their consumers - repair and maintenance only through the use of licensed software, which means that official dealer or in a specialized service. Otherwise, oh warranty service can be forgotten.

On the other hand, when maintained through licensed software and a qualified craftsman, BMW can be retrofitted, tuned and improved without any danger of maintaining the warranty.

Our company is working on the repair and diagnostics of cars BMW brands for many years. The entire range of work is carried out in full compliance with the requirements of the manufacturer, which allows us to guarantee a high quality result for each client.

Probably every motorist at least once in his life heard about the "five". Since 1972, when the first generation of the model appeared on the market, it has positioned itself as a youth car that is excellent suitable for lovers speed and comfort.

To understand how successful the model has become, you can turn to statistics. All sales history German concern sold more than six and a half million cars, and this is far from the limit.

How can one explain such popularity of the model? The thing is that all modifications of the "five" can boast high quality and fantastic features. In addition, German engineers are constantly improving their creation.

At the moment, the Bavarian company is already producing the sixth generation of the BMW 5-Series F10. Since the start of sales in 2010, more than one million copies have already been sold.

Design

The latest restyling, introduced in 2013, has affected almost every aspect of the car. Changed first appearance, finishing materials, power units.

Of course, many, looking around upgraded model, can say that the changes were minimal. However, after a careful analysis, it becomes obvious that we are facing the most updated "five".

Now the front of the car has acquired branded grille nostrils and high-tech xenon optics (LED is available for an additional fee). It is worth noting the streamlined front bumper, equipped aerodynamic elements. This gives the car a more aggressive look, for which the model is appreciated by its fans.

The coefficient of dynamic resistance of the BMW 5-Series F10 also pleased and ranges from 0.25 to 0.32 Cx, depending on the modification.

Even those who are not strong in automotive topics will be able to immediately determine that all modifications can be safely attributed to the sports class. Judge for yourself: a long hood, smooth lines, a sloping roof. All these elements can be observed exclusively on sports cars.

The back of all modifications traditionally looks strictly and concisely. At the same time, the developers managed to include a sporty style here. At the rear, a powerful neat bumper immediately catches your eye. Each element fits perfectly general concept exterior.

It is worth noting that the aforementioned restyling did not affect the dimensions at all. model range"five".

For example, a car has the following dimensions:

• length - 4.9 m;
• width - 1.86 m;
• height - 1.46 m;
• wheelbase - 2.97 m;
• clearance - 14.1 cm.

Hatchback dimensions:

• length - 5 m;
• width - 1.9 m;
• height - 1.56 m;
• wheelbase - 3.07 m;
• clearance - 15 cm.

Touring station wagon dimensions:

• length - 4.91 m;
• width - 1.86 m;
• height - 1.46 m;
• wheelbase - 2.97 m;
• clearance - 14.1 cm.

The basic equipment of cars in station wagon and sedan bodies provides for 17-inch tires. 18-inch sizes are available for an additional charge. alloy wheels. For BMW modifications 5-Series F10 Gran Turismo developers offer 18-inch or 19-inch wheels.

The most elite representative of the fifth generation M5 received tires with low profile tires 19" or 20" in diameter.

Do not forget that after restyling, the color scheme of body coloring has expanded to 16 colors. Designers in 2014 added metallic. But, everyone can order a color, which can be chosen in the extended Individual package.

Salon

As for the interior, despite expectations, restyling did not affect it much. As in previous versions, the interior is made in a strict, concise style. Special attention the developers gave the driver's seat, around which the whole concept of the interior is built. Indeed, the driver's seat is equipped with the most comfortable. Multifunctional steering wheel, compact high-tech dashboard and a very comfortable seat.

As additional options you can order digital dashboard, with 10.25 inch touch screen.

In general, the process of driving the updated BMW 5-Series F10 can be called as comfortable as possible, however, for a driver of a large build, it may be a little cramped at first, but this will pass over time. Also, it takes a little time to adjust to the iDrive control system.

Already traditionally for the "five" place front passenger can be called the most ergonomic and spacious. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the rear row seats. Despite the fact that the car is a five-seater, and accordingly back row should accommodate three passengers, in fact, only two people can ride comfortably. The reason for this lies in the dimensions of the transmission tunnel.

But at the same time, these same two passengers can get the most out of all the delights that the developers have offered. First of all, this is a wheelbase increased by 10 cm, which contributes to a more comfortable position of the legs. Do not forget about the electric seat back position.

Also, the model is famous for the spaciousness of its luggage compartment. So a sedan car boasts a trunk volume of 520 liters. A similar indicator for a station wagon is 560 liters. If you fold the rear row of seats, then the level of spaciousness increases three times.

In such a trunk, you can carry goods of any size, and at the same time do not worry about the comfort of passengers.

However, this is not the limit. by the most roomy trunk the Gran Turismo model boasts - 650 hp. And when folded rear seats- 1750 l. It is worth noting that in order to place a small load, it is not necessary to open the trunk completely, it is enough to open its small door.

After restyling, the developers added a number of diesel engines another representative. Its role is played by a two-liter unit, with a capacity of 143 horsepower. In mixed mode, this engine consumes only 4.7 liters of fuel.

All other diesel engines remained from previous modifications. These are four-cylinder 525d, 520 d. And six-cylinder - 530d, M550d.

As gasoline engines are used: 520i, 528i, 535i.

Modification M5 is equipped with a V-shaped 4.4 liter unit, issuing 560 "horses". This engine works in a duet with a six-speed manual transmission or an 8-band automatic transmission.

New BMW 5 series, which received the index F10, has become the sixth in the generation of "fives". The car is made on a shortened platform of the new sedan of the seventh series BMW F01.
