BMW parts reviews

Got Zimmerman’s on my 328 sport. I think I’m going on 50,000 miles on them and they’re still performing well and aren’t rusty. Zimmerman‘s rep is as one of the best aftermarket rotors

I always used blue "german" coolant in my e90 bmw oddly it also recommended Castrol oil. Specifically called for it in oil cap

Vezano za gume, ne treba ti premium klasa. Na autocesti sam par puta tjedno s mid range Nexen gumama i osim ako vozim 200+ po kiši u zavoju sasvim se normalno ponašaju.

I used Mahle for 5 years without any issues. The Mahle I use was made in Germany (has Germany stamped on its propeller), I believe newer one made in Italy. Idk if the reliability stays the same

Buy Meyle, their M52 Water pump has an aluminium pump wheel

Graf has been pretty good to me.

I have the Graf brand on mine, replaced mine at around 120k miles. It’s aluminum and has aluminum impeller also.

For example my previous BMW engine was very noisy with mobile 1, and quiet with castrol

I’ve replaced at least 7 Pirelli’s in 4 years on my 540. They bubble at the slightest hit. Some of them bubbled after two weeks. I know the roads are not the greatest here in Long Island, but come on. Never again.

I got all aluminum Pierburg water pump to replace (working) VDO water pump. After putting everything back together, bleeding the system, I turned on the car, drove 40 miles with a couple on and off cycles and then shut it off for a couple of hours. I came back, started the car, I got the low coolant level warning, understandable, air escaped the system (I guess I didn't bleed it enough lol). Topped it off, drove 20 miles back home and then heating suddenly stopped working and coolant temp started rising. Went from 95 C to 100, then 105 and that's when I shut the car off, didn't want it to overheat. Ever since then, my pump works intermittently. I had a laptop set up next to me with INPA on today and drove close to the house to have the car ready for emissions (thank God!). After bleeding the system two more times yesterday it seemed like it was fine but while driving today, after maybe 20 minutes of driving, the pump stopped working and would not come back on again. It was like trying, the percentage rose to 30-35% and then back to zero immediately. Temperature went from 90 C to around 110 C rather quick obviously. Then out of nowhere, it started working again for a bit. Got close to the store I was going to, and it stopped working again. I was able to pull into the parking lot as it got to 120 C and got a yellow overheating warning. On my way back home from the store, the pump only started working again maybe 3 minutes from home, had to stop once and then turn off the car and keep rolling most of the way to not let it overheat. Also, there's no heating from the vents until I set it to 28 C but at the same time there's no movement from the pump in INPA.
