No news yet...

However, I can report the updated 3.0d (231PS) engine is cracking! Noticeably quieter for sure!

My guess would be around 285PS/580Nm stock. (Just giving the 540i the edge in HP but devasting in-gear times...)

I think the only problem is this:

You buy a car and 6 months later they will have a new model to replace it.

It's getting worse than Honda and Toyota...

I got mine 1st June 2004, and now they are replacing the engine ? I speak for my self but i don't like it at all !!!

It's the 3rd change in the 3.0d engine in two years.

I have one 730d - 2002 - with the 3.0d (218 HP) and a 530d - 2004 - with the 3.0d but with particle filter and now the new version with 231 HP ??? Where does it stops ??

A friend of mine got the information from Munich that the 535d new engine is ready, they are only waiting for the competition .....

I miss the days i got a E34, 525 tds, (1991) and a E39, 525d (2001) and there weren't any changes for 4 full years.....

I like a lot that BMW is getting bettert and better whole the time. That way there is always something new to buy and I don't have to even think to go to other dealers. If BMW will stay same whole the time who will buy it?

Electronics specially is advancing so fast that what You buy today is old tomorrow and cheaper.
