Reviews of OEM BMW parts For Business

Regardless, while that’s sorta old for a battery, I have OEM BMW batteries going on 12 years with 89% charge capacity.

Genuine BMW pads and discs only. Driven 200k miles in my beamers. Even the e46 gets genuine BMW factory brakes. My 640i got new genuine discs and pads about a year or 2 ago. (£550 in parts, £80 labour).

Buy BMW blades, maybe $10 more but they last forever. They also smell like vanilla

Awesome bike, but swap out the stock tires asap.

I'd recommend only the original expansion tank. That tank usually outlasts all other aftermarket ones.

Swapped my wifes Z4 from runflats to normal.

Pros: better ride, less likely to crack rims, cheaper tyres.

Cons: no spare tyre.

BMW OEM pads have done that for decades as far as I can tell. Just get aftermarket pads and you'll get the same performance with less mess.

It's a $90k car with a single piston rear brake caliper that belongs on a 2012 Ford Focus.

As someone else mentioned, the rear brakes are tiny and even running Pagid RS29 race pads, the rears were 3mm more worn than the front after just one track day.

On my e36 it's a lot. It's a belt driven compressor (maybe that's how it is in all cars, idk) and it squeaks until I shoot it with wd40 being careful not to sit the belt. I've gotten through 5 years like this but holy shit, when I turn on the ac the rpms drop dramatically. Everything starts rattling. It doesn't stall but you can feel the lost power. It's a not insignificant number.
