BMW parts reviews

The same warranty saved my ass too. Starter in my 2020 SDrive.

with water pumps on e9x’s it’s Pierburg or bust.

Bosch is a OE supplier to BMW - I would choose that over Valeo if it were a choice I needed to make.

Zimmermann from FCP Euro hav been great on my N55 F10.

It is quite a hassle to change the fronts (the rear shocks however are a joke to change) so I would personally just go with the OEM = Sachs--as I did two months ago--if you can afford it and/or save up for it.

Head to an autozone and get PEAK blue coolant for european vehicles.

I just hit 250,000 miles on my daily driven '95 M3. I've been using Motul 8100 X-CESS 5w-40 for the past 3 years or so. Prior to that, I was using Castrol Edge Euro 5w-30, which was the BMW factory fill. The Motul often comes out still golden. The Castrol always came out black. Didn't need to do an oil analysis to know which one had fewer metal particles.

BMW manuals are mid.

That never got replaced, the filters still look white after 2-3 years in the cars I work on, this looks 5-10 years old.

That was not replaced in the last 5000mi. If you have an itemized invoice, I would check to see if it states what part was installed.
