I paid similar for a BMW TBF, however, another garage told me that the garage I went to was known for charging high prices. I always shop around when the price is in the hundreds so I'm confident I wasn't ripped off.
Only problem is the tires are transmitting way too much noise into cabin . But other than that it is an incredible ride.
Also ideally get low rolling resistance tires that can get you an extra 5% range next time you need new tires.
BMW M240i - it got an oil change, and a cabin filter. Continues to plug along just fine.
timing chain still had a lot of tension and no wear on bearings… crankshaft and everything still in spec. The timing chain was even better in the e60 pre facelift models, along with more reliable solenoid type injectors.
Have a 16 535i, took ownership at ~30k km and now at ~80k km. Front brake pads (re used old rotor but will change once I get through current set).
I have a 130i with 218k miles. I\u2019ve had the car for maybe 5 months. Spent probably around \u00a31,500 in that time period. It was mostly expected. The big costs were new oil pan, which was probably around \u00a3800 with labour.
My friend’s BMW X5 had an alternator fail at 50k, she does a lot of city driving so lots of start/stops.
If that's a factory BMW floating rotor keep a very close eye on that. Have seen more than one of those come apart (crack gets to edge, ring breaks away from hat), locks a wheel and full sends you in that direction towards the barriers.... Good buddy totaled his z4m and did like 6-7k of armco damage when that happened
The past 3 n52 BMW valve covers have been a nightmare to remove / install.
