BMW E36 is the third generation of the 3rd series of popular of the Bavarian manufacturer. And it was produced in 1990-th and 2000-th year. Despite the fact that the time interval is quite small, over the years the German company has released a large number of different models, each of which has its own characteristics and specifications.

History

Before talking about the technical characteristics of this car, it should tell you about how he was born. Series BMW E36 began to be developed by the engineers back in 1983-m to year, but the final design was approved only after five years in 1988. Well, the presentation was held in 1990 year in Europe, and a year later, in 1991 – in Canada and in the United States. Interesting is the fact that the car is 1991, the year was presented as a model, 1992. It is worth noting that the car BMW E36 was wildly popular. These machines have laid a very solid Foundation of success – they manufacturers have continued to use on to make their cars more desirable and buyable. The car was really good, and in 1998, the year the diesel version, a BMW E36 320d won the race “the 24 hours of nürburgring". Competitors were left far behind, and "Bavarian" ahead – at the expense of low fuel consumption.

The Engine

Everyone knows that car you have to choose first in his motor. Engine BMW E36 – is a separate issue. The most versatile option is the inline six-cylinder engine. Its positive properties can be attributed not only its power, but also that it is durable and trouble-free. While there is of course a minus, and it consists in the increased oil consumption. Sometimes it takes a liter per thousand kilometers. However, this is nothing terrible is not threatened. In the mid-nineties to replace the "325i" and "320i" came "328i" and "323i". What to say about the 323i engine? The first thing to note is the volume – almost 2.5 cubic centimeters. Power is not very big-only 168 HP But still cars equipped with this engine, was produced for three years. Version of the 328i is more powerful – the volume is 2.8 CC., and the power increased to 190 HP by the Way, the maximum speed that develops a model with this engine is 240 km/h But, of course, the most powerful option is the M3-3,2 CC, 317 HP, 250 km/h – this motor was a success, and it was produced until the closing of the series.

M 40 – an improved modification of the M 10

In a Separate note I would like to mention BMW E36 M40. It is a model with four-piston 8-klapannym engine which volume is 1.8 liters. Production M 40 began in 1987 and lasted until mid 1994. In all that time has produced about 840 thousand power units. M 40 replaced the M / 10 and I must say, it was a decent engine. He has become much more sophisticated and powerful. First, increased productivity in the second – the torque curve was more favorable. Not left the developers with no attention and working mechanics, it has also been improved. The design became more compact and, finally, in General, this engine was more economical than the previous version. But the engine lasts as long as possible, you should replace the belt every 40 thousand kilometers. And, of course, time to change the oil – and only on quality. So the engine served faithfully, you need to care for it.

Exterior

There is already a matter of taste. Some choose a BMW E36 coupe, other – a shortened Compact or convertible. It all depends on personal preferences of the potential buyer. However, if we talk about popularity, it should be noted that the most famous car is the sedan. Actually, that's why their in the automotive market the most. In principle, this body is no – he has a pretty high corrosion protection. Most importantly-don't squeeze all the speed out of the car on bad roads, otherwise you'll change the suspension geometry, but it is not very good. Handling will become worse, and this affects not only how comfortable will feel the driver behind the wheel, but also on its security.

Ease of operation

An Important aspect on which motorists rely when choosing a machine, is how comfortable a particular model in management. BMW E36 has good ride qualities, and it is not surprising – under such specifications. The car is pretty reliable, but if there are some small problems (say, the backlash in the silent block), then it is impossible not to pay attention – otherwise such a small thing can turn into something big and cause serious damage. The salon is comfortable – inside the spacious, and even many hours of riding does not tire the driver and passengers. The Luggage compartment also safely accommodates multiple voluminous suitcases. However, you should not purchase the model in the back "Touring" – it doesn't have the necessary capacity. However, the looks of this car is quite presentable. Again, how to choose exterior – will solve the potential buyer, depending on their needs. Someone importantcomfort, others – prestige.

Car Improvement

It Should be noted another issue regarding the BMW E36. Tuning – this aspect is of concern to many motorists, whatever car they did not own. It is worth noting that the owners of E 36 often think about the fact that it is time to improve your "iron horse", despite the fact that this model has everything you need – and in technical terms and in appearance. However, you always want something more. Well, for BMW E36 tuning can be useful. You can replace the shocks – a good alternative will be those that manufacture H&R, Bilstein B6 or Koni Sport. You can replace the levers – often chosen by those who install the model E 30. The fact that their ball joints was missing the rubber, due to which E 36 becomes easier to manage. Many decide to replace the stabilizers, for example H&R. So will reduce the load on the wheels. You should put and aluminum spacers. They are more expensive than steel, but much lighter and stronger. And finally, no harm will be to install alloy wheels and reinforced brake hoses. All these small changes will help make the car better, increase performance, power and reliability.

Best choice

In General, the owners of BMW happy with my choice, arguing that this is really a good car that is reliable and fairly high capacity. Some even give advice – which model to choose. Of course, most motorists claims that top of the range – is the best option. Be sure to take with air conditioning and a furnace, as in the summer in a car without these add-ons will be very hot, and in winter have a good warm up. It is also desirable that the vehicle cruise control. In General, do not advise owners to take a minimum configuration – it is better to spend a large amount, however, to remain satisfied in full. Air conditioning, stove BMW E36, cruise control, ESP, abs, airbags – all this in the car should be. What motorists really happy – is its simple repair. Yes, and I must say BMW's break very rarely. Still, a reliable manufacturer, and the famous German quality makes itself felt.

Cost

And finally, a few words about what amount will have to pay for such a car, if you have any desire to buy it. About 350 thousand rubles will cost a used BMW E36. The price is small, however, we must remember that the car will be owned and at least 15 years ago. There are cheaper options – machine 1997 year, with an automatic transmission, audio system, etc. a Good used BMW can be purchased for less than 290 thousand rubles. Overall this is a good option for drivers for whom the most important – the car was reliable, powerful, comfortable, and easy to maintenance and repair. In addition, these cars look quite presentable. BMW E36 – it's a good combination of indicators such as price and quality. No wonder this model was at the time one of the most popular worldwide, and still remains popular.
