Americans say BMWs are hard to work on, Europeans say BMWs are easy to work on. Is it just a skill issue?

Mutts can’t comprehend the German genius.
Anything with more than 2 screws confuses the Mutt.

Europeans who fix their own cars tend to buy older low end BMWs like 318/320d. Those have more space and less advanced motor construction than the usual American 330/340i.

Americans BMWs are pieces of shit that require excessive repairs.
>Europeans say BMWs are easy to work on.
Arabs drive BMWs in Europe and don't maintain them. Europeans share public transportation with smellies.

Americans are comparing BMWs to Chevy trucks and Toyota Corollas. Germoids are comparing BMWs to Audis and Citroens.BMWs are mid when it comes to wrenching. Fuck the 3.0l TDI in a Q7.

>Americans say BMW's are hard to work on
Most BMWs sold in the US are the X series BMW's assembled in South Carolina and only the lowest trim X1's and X3's have the 4cylinder, everything else has the I6 or V8. The I6 is much easier to work on than the V8 but both modern engines have more hoses than a fucking mid 70's Ford trying to pass SMOG along with every useless sensor known to man. Not to mention all of the parts for these cars are generally imported and then assembled in the US, driving costs up for both production and replacements
>Euros think it's easy to work on a BMW
Because most Euros are taxed on the displacement of their vehicles, and thusly mostly drive 4cylinder cars, making repairs easier and cheaper. Not to mention BMW is based out of Bavaria and thusly extra parts are significantly cheaper.
Used cars also hold almost 0 value in Europe because of their taxation and registrations restrictions. If you need a transmission for a 3-series BMW you're significantly better off buying parts off of a junkyard or your own parts car. Euros just tend to not have the space or towing ability for such things

As a euro, never worked on BMW, but there can't be a lot that's easy with I6 engine taking the full available length under the hood. But yeah I guess you guys have a good guess that I4s are more common in the old world. Beamers are popular here so there are dedicated mechanics that work specifically on those cars, there's definitely a base of knowledge built up. But whatever, what matters is that these cars are unreasonably expensive, guys spend 1k+ euros on maintenance and wear items and think it's somehow normal LMAO.

Euros don't work on their cars, they take them to a mechanic and pay out the nose, and then complain about how owning a car is slavery because of the costs, and then say taxes need to be raised to fund more bike lanes and street trolley lines.
