That's so useful! I own one and I never knew about the uphill/downhill brake hold feature so I've always used a hand break. Thanks a lot!

I bought my first BMW last June. It's a Jet Black 2008 328xi E90 6MT and it was a 1 owner car (a woman in her fifties if you can believe that) with 83k miles on the clock. Paid $7400 for it. Probably a little high but I have heard plenty of people getting over 200k miles on these cars without too much trouble. So far haven't had ANY issues. Did a couple small mods. Put in an M shifter and changed the pedals to the aluminum BMW racing ones and I had the car coated with OptiCoat Pro ceramic coating. The car was always garaged so the paint looks mint. Dunno what other mods I should do. Any suggestions?

@saganworshipper6062 4 жыл бұрын

Yea, the lady put almost exactly 8k miles a year on it according to the carfax. I've had it since june and only put like 3k miles on it because I work like 5 minutes from my house so I don't have a far drive. One question, I have no clue what kind of oil she put in the car but she said she did have it changed right before she sold it to me. In that situation what do you think you'd do? I mean I kind of want to go Liqui Moly or Mobile 1 but is that a bad idea if the car has had regular oil it's whole life up to this point? Thanks!

@saganworshipper6062 10 ай бұрын

@@zureai Thanks! Yea, as fate would have it, thank god I didn't wait another year to buy a new car because Covid made the prices skyrocket on used cars! This past June makes 4 years that I've had it now. I live in the same town as my job so I don't put a lot of miles on it. It still only has 95k lol. I've only put 12k on it (3k a year) I also tinted the windows because it is black on black and it gets HOT in the summer. I haven't had any issues aside from having to change the battery and water pump. I got both of those from FCP Euro so lifetime guarantee on both. I went ahead and changed all the coolant hoses including the "mickey mouse" flange as preventative when I did the water pump. Also FCP is only like 20 minutes from my house because I live in CT. I still change the oil once a year even though I only drive 3k miles lol. I ended up using AMSOIL FS because that's just my preference that I've always ran in all my cars. Other things I did right away were changing the plugs and coils, engine air filter, cabin air filter, new fluid in both diffs, transfer case, power steering fluid/reservoir (which was weeping a little) and the transmission fluid too. BMW claims those fluids are all "lifetime fill" but I changed them all anyways. I asked ZF about the trans fluid and they said you should change it every 60-80k miles so I trust them more than BMW who wants everyone to buy a new car instead of maintaining the one you have lol. Honestly the car drives just like new still and I could probably get back what I've put into it considering the prices nowadays, but I have no interest to sell because the car has been so good to me.
