2014BMW 3 Series

The turbo era: nearly the whole range moved to turbocharged engines. For 2014 the coupe and convertible split off as the separate 4 Series, leaving the 3 Series as sedan, Touring (F31), and Gran Turismo (F34). US F30s ran model years 2012–2018, with the G20 arriving for 2019.

  • Verify N20 versus N26 by VIN on 328i applications; N47 diesel fuel and emissions parts do not interchange with gasoline models.
