BMW parts are well known for its classiness. The style and reliability of these BMW parts makes them distinguishable from the rest. The BMW brand means revolutionary improvement and fascinating design Just keep reading on to see what makes the BMW parts special.
The more efficient fuel injector:
The horsepower and the emissions are both controlled by the fuel injector. Here the horse power should be made maximum while the emission is minimum. In order to achieve this condition, a good rapid burn of the fuel is required. This is where the BMW technology excels in. They made a small needle-like valve that forcefully under big pressure injects the fuel into the intake port. The fuel is atomized and like this together with the oxygen in the air it burns instantly and this gives the needed power for your BMW car. This BMW part is exceptional in delivering the maximum horsepower.
The amazing BMW ignition coil
The BMW ignition coil is one of the parts that have a very long life. BMW engines also work on the same principle as the conventional spark ignition engines. The only change is that this spark in your BMW car is produced by the spark plugs that need a high-voltage electrical charge and this will be provided to them by the ignition coil. These high voltage spark plugs are used to improve the starting performance (the engine can start in any whether conditions). The ignition coil is based on induction. It will take power from the accumulator which is 12 volts and then it will transform it to thousands of volts. This high voltage is an indispensability for maximum efficiency of the spark plug. This type of ignition coil will be found in no other cars and it’s the specialty of the BMW technology.
The BMW thermostat
The BMW car’s thermostat is another important and most significant one. This device is capable of both measuring and regulating the temperature in the car. In order to control the temperature the thermostat will constantly measure it and then it will cool down the system or heat it up by switching and controlling the flow of the heat energy. This mechanism will prevent the engine damage due to over heating.
The BMW oxygen sensor
The oxygen sensor is a BMW part that is fitted to monitor the exhaust of the vehicle. It is important to know how well the fuel has burned in the engine and this measuring device will provide you with that data. This data will be then examined by the fuel injection computer and it will make the necessary adjustments in order for the better burn of the fuel. These adjustments are all about the way in which the fuel combines with the air and more precisely. The better the fuel burns the higher is the performance of your BMW car.
All these BMW parts make the BMW cars the most efficient car in the planet.

Bmw Bags 7 Awards for 4 Engines, International Engine of the Year
BMW, maker of quality BMW accessory parts, bagged 7 awards for its 4 engines, namely: BMW 3.0 liter Twin Turbo in-line six cylinder petrol engines, BMW M 5.0 liter V10 petrol engine, BMW 2.5 liter in-line six cylinder petrol engines, and the MINI 1.6 liter Turbo petrol engine. With these, BMW, for the third time in a row, won the 2007 International Engine of the Year.
The award is considered the most important engine competition in the world. The jury consisted of 62 high-ranking international automobile journalists from 30 countries.
The BMW 3.0 liter Twin Turbo petrol engine is now fitted in all body variations of the successful BMW 3 Series. The 6-cylinder engine with Twin Turbo technology won the “Best New Engine of the Year 2007” for the 2.5 liter and 3.0 liter capacity classes, respectively.
As an addition to the 6-cylinder engine with Twin Turbo technology’s extreme pulling power, the awards jury was also impressed by the high efficiency of the 225 kW power unit. In the BMW 335i Coupe, with 9.5 liters per 100 kilometers, the average level of consumed fuel based on the EU norm is intensely moderate for this performance class. And this is basically because of BMW High Precision Injection. It is the world’s first jet-guided direct injection system ever to be produced in high-volume production. This, in effect, allows a specific and accurate metering of the mixture of air-fuel.
The V10 high-performance engine, which is to be found in BMW M5 and M6, won 2 awards. Like in the past 2 years, the said engine with a 507bhp power package and a capacity of 5 liters bagged the “Best Performance Engine of the Year” award. It also won in the engine class that has over 4.0 liters capacity. The said engine had already won the “International Engine of the Year” award in 2005 and 2006.
The 2.5 liter 6-cylinder petrol engine with VALVETRONIC won the 2.0 – 2.5 liter award. The engine is being used in the BMW Z4 Roadster 2.5si and X3 2.5si. It was first used in 2001. Since then, it was established in millions of automobiles. The engine its fully variable valve control yields 160 kW and one can really say it has the BMW philosophy of efficient dynamics.
According to Rogelio Rivera-Nava, a jury member from Mexico, the exquisite sound of the 2.5-litre engine can be heard from a distance. He further stated the construction of the in-line 6-cylinder gives the basis for the technical purity of this most famous BMW engines.
The BMW Group and PSA Peugeot Citroën jointly received the award for the 1.6 liter turbo engine under the 1.4-1.8 liter category. The engine is being used in the MINI Cooper S.
For the last 9 years, BMW has been a recipient of over 30 of the highly sought-after “International Engine of the Year” awards. This makes the Bavarian auto manufacturer a leader in the field of engine construction and innovation.

Bmw Takes Two on Merger
DaimlerChrysler, parent automaker of Mercedes-Benz, has already signed the papers to their corporate divorce while their strong rival BMW is planning to launch a takeover bid for Volvo earlier this year as revealed by Autocar. It can be noted that most analysts have expressed their concern over mergers in the auto industry saying that it is not pragmatic. But it looks like BMW just don’t want itself to be daunted by the number of failed mergers in the industry and preferred to personally experience it.
Anyway, the Bavarian automaker and producer of high quality BMW exhaust have already requested a complete breakdown of Volvo’s financial position from a European investment bank which is handling enquiries on behalf of Ford, the owner of Volvo. Reliable sources have also revealed that BMW has earlier eyed the Alfa Romeo as its takeover target.
According to industry experts BMW is planning to expand its range of brands to support the future growth of the company. Likewise, part of its plan is underpinning the front-wheel-drive Mini division by expanding its output and it can do so with the help of Volvo.
Why Volvo? Company bosses at BMW saw Volvo as the fitting global brand complimentary to BMW, which they deemed has considerable room for growth and room to accommodate Volvo. Although BMW will always emphasize driving pleasure, Volvo on the other hand will contribute safety and environmental concerns to the mix.
At present it not yet clear what BMW plans are but its probable that the larger saloon and estate models of Volvo just in case would be switched to BMW platforms offering both rear-and four-wheel drive. The smaller cars in the Volvo’s range would remained front-drive and would probably be merged to the Mini family expanding this model range.
The Mini brand is currently one of the biggest problems of BMW and it has already been forced to allot additional investment just for the redesigning of the new Mini as well as engineering the Mini Clubman estate. But despite all the efforts Mini sales are still down on their 2005 peak and the BMW insiders admit that a total annual output of 250,000 to 270,000 cars is just not enough to secure a profitable long-term future for the Mini brand.
Potentially with Volvo, BMW could build the proposed large five-door Mini and Mini SUV on the same front-drive chassis as the future S40 and V50. And let’s just say for the sake of argument that this was done, an annual output of 500,000 upmarket Volvo and Mini front-drive cars could ensure long-term profitability.
The expectation for future profit is not new when it comes to merger in fact every one of those failed union in the auto industry is hoping for the same thing that’s why they merge in the first place. Unfortunately, none of those merges survive except for the seven years partnership between Nissan and Renault but even their union is still uncertain and nobody knows what may happen in the future.
And let us not forget that seven years ago BMW was humiliated when it incurred massive losses which forced it to split up and sell the Rover Group which it bought in 1994. The question now is: Has BMW forgets the lessons of the past or has it learned a lot to create a new successful partnership? Well only BMW can answer that.
