Mine goes in Friday for the 45k service as well. Hopefully getting brake rotors, and new clutch, and oil change and for them to fix to squeaks, rattles in the car. Gonna demand they give me a nice loaner car, as i've had a 335 and a 335d before, hoping they'll give me one of those.

I do. Hitting 55K soon, I extended my warranty to 100K. No big problems other than adaptive headlight failure (one of the motors broke and now it's a nightmare trying to prove my angel eyes didn't do it, which they didn't). Also, it feels a little slower and I think it's almost due for an engine cleaning. Seafoaming it every oil change for the past few thousand miles didn't do much. Also, the paint's ugly as shit now, especially on the front bumper, even with yearly professional detailing and being as meticulous as possible. Oh well. Still fun. Faster than most cars out there, and as the car ages I'm less anal about doing fun stuff like burnouts.

Unfortunately the only sure fire way to clean out the intake manifold is to take it off the car and drop it in a tub of seafoam for 3 days...then the carbon scrapes off with a plastic knife. |

I highly reccommend Mopar combustion chamber cleaner. I have been used it for years. Quite noticable increased performance and about 40-80 miles to the tank increase, depending on how dirty the engine. I have used it in all my used cars. If the engine has a lot of build up, then a lot of black smoke will come out of the exhaust while you are spraying it in. I have yet to use it on the 1, but it may be something someone may want to try. I'm not sure exactly where to get it. My cousin has been a Chysler mechanic for over 20 years. I get through him.

I love my 135 more since I just completed all the mods. My M3 rear subframe bushings were just installed and the ride is fantastic. I'll write a small review and post pics tonight.
