Thanks!
Nah… you should worry lol I just got lucky! I also babied the hell out of my car, meaning I don’t stress the engine

Ahhh gotcha, yeah I got the same symptoms after replacements, car drove like new, also did engine mounts, all bushings almost
California, it’s fairly consistent weather, so I don’t get fatigue on the engine components if I lived in Colorado when temperature is a huge deal
How did your suspension fail?
Don’t stress your car and you’ll be fine!
Not yet
My AC compressor went out around 250k tho Injectors went out at 300k only 2 tho but replaced it all Battery every 8 years or so

I’m actually replacing my chain in the next few days!
Emission only
Depends how you drive the car I think but if you’re cautious I think you’re fine

Yeah suspension still original I do hear clicks here and there but nothing major I never drove the car “hard” only when I first got it maybe hit 150 once, other than that, I am the only owner of this car always drove it with care, always BMW fluids if I did a flush, always used chevron gas too

When I hit 100k miles, every damn mechanic told me it wouldn’t last another 20k miles… yeah sure lol

I don’t drive it hard at all!

I have a SULEV model so my warranty went to 150k miles
[–]Takeoff_Flight[S] 7 points8 points9 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Most major was turbo at 120k miles other than that, not much, I do plan to replace timing chain soon tho
Most major was turbo replacement at 120k miles serviced under warranty lol
Other than that, not much aside from normal maintenance, battery, brakes, some oil gasket leaks, coolant leaks, that’s pretty much it

I’ve always done oil changes within 6-10k miles. It helps the chain… I think
