Reviews of OEM BMW parts For Business

I have that exact same car. Got it new in 2017. Has 97 K miles. So far it has been amazing. Still drives smooth. It eats miles during road trips. Good blend of sportiness and luxury. Great for winter. I had to change the bags for the air suspension around 78K miles and a control arm that got messed while taking a pothole at high speed with the car loaded while moving from FL to Maryland. I just changed valve covers and spark plugs cause it had a small oil leak around 90K miles and it eats up about a quarter every 5 K miles recently. Apart from those things it has been pretty reliable and only needed regular oil changes and about 3 sets of tires which are not cheap.

Just left the dealership today looking for a quote on my 2021 430i with HUD. I was going to pay out of pocket to avoid a comprehensive claim on my insurance until I was quoted $2K.

I always bought BMW genuine brake pads and rotors, and never had an issue. They work great.

I have the Z3 rack in my 318is and I like the faster ratio because I drive it through small town Appalachia and these old, small, windy East Coast mountain roads.

The first radiator at the dealer was a genuine BMW part# 17111436060. Mine has lasted well.

BMW coolant is down right awesome stuff.

Had my 2014 535 in for front control arm replacement (99k miles) and technician said it has an oil pan gasket leak. I haven't been adding oil or seeing any leakage on the ground. Cost quoted was $1900. Asked the tech to send me a pic of the leak. He did, and from what I saw it looks more like normal seepage for an engine with 99k miles on it. I'm not worried about it.

The wipers are dog shit, persevered since around 2k, the noise is unbearable.

BMW does it now as well. Headlight went out. 3300 part another 3000 labor. Found a replacement. And was told it won’t work unless dealer programs it but dealer won’t program unless we buy new from them.

The headlights look like they\u2019re in shock all the time. The only part I\u2019m not a fan of this car.
