rear brake rotors replaced at 145,300.

pj.rodriguez · 01-14-2015, 11:47 AM

177000 km (110625 mi) and I think I need a new VCG, OFHG, and I'm not sure but there's some oil around my rear main seal. Could be a function of dripping oil from my engine cover or oil filter housing.

No mechanical issues though. Just silly gaskets...

Damn you drive your car a lot!
Do you have the N52 or N51?

BimmerE82 · 01-25-2015, 11:02 AM

88,000 miles....Just had the HP Fuel pump replaced, went out on me. I was still getting the engine malfunction light "reduced power" after the pump was replaced so I had to take it back in. Found out the intercooler boot going to the turbochargers became dislodged! They reconnected it and she drives like new again!!!

Pkaia524 · 01-26-2015, 06:01 PM

N51

P7X · 03-09-2015, 09:49 AM

128,000 kms - Oil filter housing and cooler gaskets
130,000 kms - Walnut blasting

I would say rear brakes, struts and shocks sometime this summer.

ummmmm.... ya the walnut blasting was def needed.

before

After

Billup · 03-09-2015, 10:27 AM

Currently at 106k miles. Had the car a little over a year and a half now, bought with 50k.

JRMorgan · 03-10-2015, 05:31 PM

60k stock

HPFP
Chargepipe
Waterpump
Blower Motor
Left window switch
Trans pan - my fault though
Power steering hose
Vanos bolts

I tend to have bad luck with BMWs. I don't even want to start on the number of things that broke on my old 335i and what that cost. That's why this car has CPO.

Do you drive cross country everyday for work? That's a lot of miles in one year and a half!

Holy sh!t man! How big was the difference in power and response afterwards? I imagine significant with that much carbon build up!

big difference, revs so freely. Still winterish here so haven't put any power down but the throttle response is much much better.

Pkaia524 · 03-10-2015, 09:30 PM

No repairs/breakdowns since last post.

Manbeer · 03-20-2015, 06:53 PM

97k - Dinan tuned for first 55k, then various 16-18psi tunes for the last 40k + with e85

3rd brake light
Crank sensor
Coils due to me spilling tons of oil
Intermittent CD player not working in cold weather
Radio Display dim when hot
Diff howling from 3rd gear tire spinning shenanigans and clutch dropping

Still on original clutch

Nothing major. Much better than my POS G35 that was on its 3rd engine by 50k

sixburgh · 03-20-2015, 07:06 PM

The N51 is a great motor. Strong as a lion.

Pkaia524 · 04-04-2015, 06:40 AM

PA135i · 04-06-2015, 07:54 PM

Yah, not many 135's on this post. My 135i will hit 90K at the end of this week.
