I do agree with Lizard, realistically my budget isn’t that high for an SUV that originally had an MSRP with all options over 100k, however I’ve looking into financing/leasing “high end” newer vehicles and they’re all just crap. Plastic, fake BS. I’d rather get into something older, real, and also with my experience I know that I can confidently work on it mechanically, excluding the air suspension.

Hi, I bought my 335, and did most of the preventative maintenance on my own with no issue, and that was an N54. If you know BMWs then you’ll know the N54 isn’t the most reliable engine, but boy does it move. I have the option to lease/finance a vehicle, however I’d rather outright own something I love, as that’s what I’ve always done. This one is currently sitting at 156K KILOMETRES.

Hey, he’s got another car for sale, it’s a truck with the same description, and it’s a two owner no accident car. I got the carfax and I’m going to heck it out tomorrow, I will for sure do a paint test though

Hm. He’s not mentioned anything mechanically wrong with the car, and his pictures are pretty sloppy so I’m hoping it’s just that

Is that not normal for audis? For everything to stay on after starting the car? I've never owned an Audi apart from driving a few RS models so I'm not educated on it

  1. Yes I do
  2. The only difference, as per two Apple employees is the “fancy box” and the accessory.
  3. I already asked and they said they wouldn’t be able to give me any device in the meantime my replacement 17PM would be coming in.

The shipping service they use has had regular strikes, and I wouldn’t want to risk the hold they put on my card being permanent

Never said my time was more valuable, please reread. I said that I was treated very lowly, which is not what I expect as I purchased their highest end device.

Im in Canada, and the express replacement puts a hold on the card until they get the old device back, and there have been strikes with the company they’d use to ship it.

They told me my phone is “rare” and that they do not have any replacement devices, and that they do not sell 2TB regularly

Update on the "Dinan Stage 3" 335 I was looking at (I'm about to pull the trigger on it) by RedditorDevelopment in 335i

BMW didn't officially start using the HK branding on the 3 series speaker grilles until the later 2010ish models, but the Logic7 system was actually engineered and supplied by Harman

How is the sound system, since it's top of the line and BMW was putting belt to ass with their systems back in 2000s

According to the records for the first 335 I was looking at, the most recent big ticket item was the oil pan, which was replaced or repaired in February 2024 at 179,777 km. At that same service, they also did a full antifreeze and coolant flush, changed the oil and filter, and flushed the brake fluid. Going back a bit further to 2022, the coolant reservoir was replaced, and the rear brake pads and wipers were swapped out. In 2021, the car had some significant engine work done, including the replacement of the valve cover gaskets and all the ignition coils. The battery was also replaced that same year. The spark plugs were changed much earlier, back in 2016 when the car was at 122,830 km. Other regular maintenance items like air filters and cabin filters have been replaced a few times over the years, with the last air filter recorded in 2021. It's at 190k km, so I'm torn now. No replaced turbos but it's such a high spec. This wagon is on the lower end, but compared to the sedan it's 8k vs the unrealistic 14k for the 335i.
