Marab Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Anyone drive either 320d or 325d auto. I had a 320d auto back in 2002, auto box didn't seem very happy with this engine, have they improved or is a 325d auto a better combination?

chrisbin Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 320d auto in 177bhp flavour is very good - if you floor it from rest its fine, but more restrained starts are a bit tardy. Aside from that its really very very capable.....and a remap just makes it even more so... Very little "diesel noise" from driver's seat, and sit anywhere else in the car and you wouldn't know at all.. 325 will be smoother and a bit quieter, but very little performance difference and worse mpg...can't see the point myself...

Bungle Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Nothing wrong with the 320d, but the 325d is worth the extra. The lovely 6 cylinder growl, and strong smooth/linear power delivery mean it is a much more capable car. Very under-rated the 325d. I have a 330d, and theres not much in it between a 325d & 330d.
