160k miles on mine. Most reliable car I’ve owned. Just do your regular maintenance like plugs, coils, filter, oil, other fluids and they’re rock solid!
I’m running 110k miles in my M40 X3. There was a coolant issue but other than that it’s been an excellent engine.
It was $100 for the BMW cabin filter. After 20 min of trying to squeeze in to do it, I would say, that $90 was worth it for the cabin air filter.
Oil changes every 7-7.5k miles MAX with the correct oil and a good quality oil filter.
I just replaced the oil pump in my 2019. I got warning messages- messages that my oil levels were low and to add oil. I didn\u2019t realize the thing didn\u2019t have a dipstick and that the only way to check the oil level is through the software.
Headlights look good, it will be a classy front end.
Rear/ look a bit commical. Anime character angry squint tail lights. Even with a light bar, it wouldnt look much better.
Notice the radiator is leaking. Replace that. Car still not happy, cooling fans on full blast. Codes point to a thermostat, but the radiator hoses get warm. In my pea brain thermostats don't normally just sometimes go bad, they're typically either all broke or not broke. Ordered a thermostat from Trumplandia anyways.
Thanks for this very interesting and informative post! I wish I had found something similar before purchasing my F07 (which, at 300k kms, is costing a lot to maintain) and my F30 (in which the timing chain let go and caused engine rebuild).
330i, coolant repairs.
I had an 2001 740iL that I traded an old truck for. The electronics are kind of a nightmare, the water pump has a plastic impeller that likes to randomly explode and shoot plastic all through the cooling system. You can buy one with a metal impeller that solves this.
