1998 BMW 3 Series 328is review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front right corner panel under the turn signal and rear trunk sill have rust perforation, No worries this kind of problems is covered under BMW rust warranty. The rust was fixed at no cost to me.
Rear calipers tend to get locked up, and cause a scraping sound. BMW recommended to replace them, but instead I had both clean and lubricated, this solved the problem.
General comments?
328is is one of the most smoothest and most powerful engine I have every driven.
The amount of time and skill that has been put into building the machine, is well worth the money I have paid for the car.
Among my friends, we have 13 BMW's and they range from 318,320,325,328,M3,5-series,7-series all of them boast its power and quality.
