I get at LEAST 200K out of most of my vehicles before I think about trading up. I gotta say I know a few people with beemers and they don't have quite the luck you do. a trip to the repair shop for one of those is cringe worthy. But if it's working for you don't fuck with it.

Most maintenance came from the 03-04 325i I owned. Never had to go to a shop. I replaced most of the cooling system (symptomatic of those) and various front suspension components. They are no harder to work on than any other car. Parts are very reasonable online. The X5 I did buy an aftermarket warranty. Mostly because of the electronics and turbo.

Guest Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Oil change on my 13 eb takes about 40 minutes at my dealer with a wash. Costs around $50.

Mileage Psycho Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 22 hours ago, Snake said: 2011, 73k. A/C totally destroyed. Sway bar bushings. Both lower control arms/bushings. Blown shocks. Frozen ebrake. Front calipers. Midpipe/muffler/tailpipe. Complete trailer/plate light assembly/pigtail. Transmission TSB for slipping. What a fucking joke. Typical Ford quality, I have an E350 with less miles and similar issues. It's amazing how many hard city miles our GMC's and Malibu's go through with nothing more than normal maintenance.
