Robert answered 4 years ago. BMW if taken care of will last a very long time. When I was younger all my BMW's were over 200,000 miles and never had an issue (besides the normal wear and tear stuff). The vehicle you are looking at has the N52 engine in both of them.
Photons in this context do not collide with one another, and so heat transport by electromagnetic radiation is conceptually distinct from heat conduction by microscopic diffusion and collisions of material particles and phonons. But the distinction is often not easily observed, unless the material is semi-transparent.
At the macroscopic level, heat is the transfer of energy from the high temperature object to the low temperature object. At the particle level, heat flow can be explained in terms of the net effect of the collisions of a whole bunch of little bangers.
