Pros: Holding up good, no issues

PEAK Antifreeze
eddy_e46
  • Temperature stability:
Rating 4.0

Blue antifreeze that says European only. Your local autoparts store usually has PEAK Euro full strength or Pentofrost NF (G11) antifreeze. Either one of those is good, just dilute it 50/50 with water.

Pros: good, dilute with water

Pirelli Tires

The P Zero All-Season may be your best bet if you're set on all-seasons. They were fine when I had one of the previous scorpion AS iterations on my E53, seemed to be a good value.

Only other thing I'm seeing available is discount tire with a Nitto NT420V. I'd take the Pirelli over that.

Pros: good value

Hella Crankshaft position sensor
knikpiw
  • Warning light:
Rating 4.5

BMW dealer is 90$ per sensor. I’ve chosen to go with Hella as they’re a strong electronics bmw manufacturer and were only 30$ per sensor. That was a big enough difference for *me* to buy Hella and if it failed then I’d go to BMW OE for 90$ and 2 hours replacing it.

So far I’ve gotten 5500 miles with the Hella sensor and there’s be no issue

Pros: no issues, cost effective
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 5500 km

Zimmermann Brake discs
Yetti37
  • Braking:
Rating 5.0

I use Zimmerman blanks on my track car and have been doing so for years. They work great, will hold up for numerous weekends, and are fairly inexpensive (free replacements from FCP Euro is also a big bonus).

Pros: work great, fairly inexpensive

OEM BMW Headlights
Toaster29
  • Brightness:
  • Aim:
Rating 5.0

Headlights were terrible. OEM plastic units with halogens. No bueno. Ordered the euro glass projectors with HIDs and new clear fogs (also HIDs). Much, Much, MUCH better. Aimed correctly. Light pattern is acceptable. Zero issues with flashing from other drivers.

Pros: Much better light pattern
Cons: terrible OEM headlights

Depo Headlights
e39hamann
  • Brightness:
Rating 2.0

Those are Depo headlights, so not OEM. The angel eyes on them are made up of a few individual bulbs in each ring, not sure if they're easy to remove/replace though.

Pros: not OEM
Cons: bulbs in each ring
Vehicle: BMW
