How many cylinders does the BMW 730 have?

[WalterMarie]

BMW 7 Series has 8 cylinders. The BMW 7 Series is equipped with an 8-cylinder V-type engine. A V-type engine is one where all cylinders are divided into two groups, with adjacent cylinders arranged at a certain angle to each other, forming two groups of cylinders with an angled plane. When viewed from the side, the cylinders appear in a V shape. Maintenance of V-type engines: Avoid sudden acceleration: Allow the engine to idle for three minutes first. This helps the engine oil temperature to rise and improves its fluidity, ensuring the turbocharger is fully lubricated before increasing the engine speed and starting to drive. This is particularly important in winter, requiring at least 5 minutes of warm-up time. Prevent impurities from entering: Engine oil and filters must be kept clean because the clearance between the turbocharger's rotating shaft and the bushing is very small. If the lubricating ability of the oil decreases, it can lead to premature failure of the turbocharger. Regular cleaning: The air filter needs to be cleaned regularly to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the high-speed rotating compressor impeller, which can cause unstable rotation speed or increased wear on the bushing and seals.
