Luxury Car Secrets: Top Reliable Engines Revealed!

Even toyota trusts the B58 enough to put it in the new supra. I remember another channel spoke with toyota about why they went with the BMW engine. Toyota said they tested it up to 700hp and they decided it held up to their standards. If its good enough for Toyota, the B58 sure as hell is good in my books. I want the new Supra.

My 2010 Mercedes S550 had 171,000 miles on it problem free engine. Just suspension issues. The trans and engine were rock solid. Great video as always.

One thing I don't like about the Acura V6 is is that you still have to change the timing belt.. In this day and time that can be an expensive service.. Lexus vehicles and Toyota use the timing chains..

For the M278 Engine in any 550 Mercedes Models it is important to find out if the engine was built before or after 2015 and if its built in the USA or Germany. Anything after 2015 you are good since Mercedes has been resolving some of the issues and ill explain what and why. For any 2014 models and below the coolant and oil would mix causing catastrophic problems. And also to note that After a certain Mileage the coating in the cylinder walls would eventually wear out due to the valve guides wearing causing misfire and really bad bore scoring because of the coating (Silitec) this would be the reason why M278 Owners would need to change their oil so frequently. After 2015 Mercedes switched from Silitech to Nanoslide which pretty much resolved this issue. Otherwise its a pretty solid Engine and reliable and can squeeze out some crazy horsepower

I have a 2006 BMW 325xi Wagon (E91) with 195,000 miles. Engine oil leaks are plenty. Suspension rebuilds every 75,000 miles are required. Still a joy to drive. Paint quality is exceptional. Rust prevntion is exceptional.

Your knowledge just totally blows me away. I cannot afford a luxury vehicle but I watch as your phenomenal knowledge is eye watering. Thank you I have learned so much from down under New Zealand. You need reliability as I have friends with BMWs and Audis who have bought just for the prestige without your knowledge or understanding of which models to buy and they have both lost limbs as they have had in excess of 10k failure issues or so the authorised dealers who conduct the maintenance have charged them! Both vowed never again!

B58! 💪🏾

Sooner or later, mostly sooner, a German car will require a costly repair along with more costly scheduled maintenance. Lexus may not be inexpensive when it comes to scheduled maintenance, either, but repairs are few and far between. Let the Germans loose on electronic technology and that is like asking Dracula to manage the Red Cross blood bank.

I find your reviews informative and enjoyable…. Keep it up!

Definitely Making me feel great about my S4 Thanks Mark … great stuff

Awesome video as usual Mark! 👍

A Chrysler 225 slant 6 from the 1970s is the engine that is 2nd to none.

A buddy of mine is already having issues with his 2018 Mercedes GLS. Within 6 years that car has been in the shop multiple times. Latest issue is the engine automatically switching to D2 when stopping at a red light. He called me recently to vent and I told him that it’s well expected from a German vehicle. It drives nice and works well until it doesn’t anymore. This is why they undergo crazy price depreciation every year. They just don’t hold value

Finally a knowledgeable and well spoken independent motor enthusiast who will tell ot as it is.

Hey Mark, Very Nice Line Up ! The Lexus GX550 Is Gonna Be A Stone Cold Winner !! 🏁🏆 🥶

However the TFSI technology is rubish,especialy în VAG Group.They loose 1 litre oil at 1000km .So Audi is a bad motor. Maybe 3 litres V6 is better than 2 litres TFSI (here is desaster)

I would love to have a Lexus anytime

Thank you for the information ❤

YESSIRRR THE AUDI GETS A MENTION. What years specifically are bulletproof? B9?

The Audi engine I have thanks for sharing info good to know as this is my first Audi to own Thanks again
