How it works
Clear information first, then the right engine and specialist for your exact vehicle.
Variant History
The BMW 2 Series M240i arrived in 2017 as the replacement for the M235i, bringing BMW's new modular B58 3.0-litre inline-six turbo engine to the F22 Coupe and F23 Convertible. The M240i badge represented a significant step up in performance, with the B58 delivering 335-340hp compared to the M235i's 326hp N55. The G42 generation M240i (2021-present) took performance to another level with 374hp from an updated B58.

The BMW 2 Series M240i has been powered by two generations of 3.0-litre inline-six engines: the earlier N55 (2014-2016 M235i) and the B58 (2017-present M240i). The N55 suffers from plastic charge pipe failure and oil starvation under hard use, while the B58 - widely regarded as one of BMW's best modern engines - has its own plastic component weaknesses including the oil filter housing and water pump. Rebuilt engines through EnginesMarket include upgraded components addressing the original failure point, plus a minimum 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty.
Common failure points and repair options
The M240i's N55 and B58 straight-six engines are among BMW's finest, but plastic component failures - charge pipes on the N55, oil filter housings and water pumps on the B58 - can escalate quickly if ignored. With rebuilt engines available from £3,000, a 12-month warranty on every unit, and nationwide delivery and fit options, replacing your M240i engine through EnginesMarket is often more cost-effective than main dealer repairs.
