Guys how much do you out into maintenance?

I'm looking at an f30, out of warranty but is CPO eligible.

How much do you spend in the shop?

RIP my knob. Mine is decaying, considering a ZHP but I like the look of this Momo better. Anyone dealt with a Momo knob compared to stock?

looking to buy an used e90, what do i have to look out for in particular?

which engine is the most reliable, ive read the diesels are pretty bad

Well the most known issue on the e90 is the High Pressure Fuel Pump. They did do a recall on it, though. So if you are looking at an earlier e90, make sure it has been taken care of.

You think it will fall apart?

I've been lulled into considering the golden wang of justice...

>>16215273
Probably not, it just looks like shit

read this thread, it seems like a pretty reliable car. most people dont have problems.

>>16215511
its so the leather wont separate at the seams even under hard use, it holds the leather together better than a plain stitch
