Ordering Service Parts - 130i

[johnny12]

Hey guys.

Going to give my 130i a good service soon - oil, oil filter, air filter and plugs to start with. I've found some good places overseas for these but can anyone confirm the model of car that we use when ordering from the USA as they don't have the 130i model? Lots of places have the E82 with the N52 so I presume this will do?

Mick's Garage has cheap shipping and 20% for this weekend. Can anyone offer advice on spark plugs though? There's quite a few types and looking for feedback on what you guys have used in the past.

Also try Schmeidmann or Jd75. Depending on the product etc you might find its cheaper from JD.

If you are buying oil, filters and spark plugs i wouldn't bother from overseas. plus aussie dollar isnt that strong

Oil will be expensive to ship and castrol edge is always on sale at supercheap

Genuine oil filters from the dealer are only $11, cheaper than a Ryco filter

Spark plugs and air filter. you generally dont do these very often so i would just keep a lookout on the next sale

if i need non service parts i always purchase parts from schmiedmann. order on a monday. parts are here by friday

Agreed on getting the service parts locally.

I always go FCP euro for hard to get oem parts, the shipping prices are very reasonable.
