BMW 4 Series F33 LCI

Product Overview
BMW 4 Series F33 LCI Convertible is a compact executive convertible in production from 2017 to 2020. It was available with a range of inline-4 and inline-6 engines that displaced 2.0 to 3.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift F33 Convertible, the LCI made the design slightly busier, which is arguably a step backwards. It has the refreshed engine lineup with B48 and B58 on the petrol side and B47 and N57 on the diesel side. Some of these tend to suffer from BMW's classic timing chain problems.
In other aspects, the LCI brought no real changes.
