Most K engines, when maintenanced correctly, are designed to run +- 200k kilometers (~120k miles). When one and the same driver keeps his K engine in good shape, and rides regularly, up to 300k kilometers can be reached. Absolute maxima reach to 500k kilometers. note: 2v are known to be more durable than 4v. note2: if you want long live, maintenance regularly, and ride at least once a week for no less than 50-60 miles in one trip. note3: if a valve breaks off, you can continue for at least 30-40 miles. The engine will ba a total loss anyway. for more tech info, visit www.flyingbrick.de !

What is the life expectancy for a BMW 335i?

The life expectancy for all BMW's is projected to be 300k miles, without replacing any of the main components such as the engine, transmission, alternator, ect. The 335i is a little bit different considering it has a twin turbo. The life of a turbo is projected generously at about 150k. BMW's turbo's on the other hand are expected to last to 200k miles. With the proper maintenance and up keep, the BMW 335i is expected to live up to at least 200k miles.
