I rarely see any documented cases of timing chain failure on the B47 although 60% parts are shared and I'm a member of quite a few owners groups. Lots of forum members high mile examples and still on the original chain. The B47 engine has been out for over 8 years now so you'd expect to see many more documented cases online and in forums. I think the materials used have improved and potentially the chain has been revised to use a higher grade material.
Great video! I havent seen such detailed comparison of n47 and b47 diesels with parts catalogues! I'm looking at a used 2016 328d with n47t engine with 160,000km....🙄🤔
The chain and chain guide PNs may be the same but isnt it possible that the materials used may be better controlled ? Also, good luck with the war best wishes from UK !!
Hello Vadym, would you be able to provide me the motor number location(s) for the B47D20 170kW installed on the G30 (525d) and X11 (725d)? I found the first 3 digits (614) but not the remaining ones. Thank you.
i have an option to buy either 316d (B47) or 320d (N47), price is the same but 316d is 4 years younger... Should i smart and buy slow but safe car ? :D

Can you tell me the mechanical diferences (turbo, injectors) between a b47 18d and a b47 20d

I mean really if you have an old n47 this is good news parts availability for even longer
Are n47s from 2013-2014 on the 420d problematic or fixed

N47 is very problematic in the long run it will cost you much more either go for b47

@@panagiotis6311I thought n47 was only bad until 2011? Isn’t the 2013- models better with no chain faults?
@@hybridownzDK they are much more improved than pre 2011 . But still b47 is much more reliable and you will never have a problem with timing chain
