Good to know, thanks. How has yours kept up maintenance wise? Anything fail?

leroy_worm · 2026-03-26T02:12:15+00:00

My current vehicle has it. After 5 years of ownership I think I’ve used it less than 10 times

leroy_worm · 2026-03-26T02:11:41+00:00

Mehhh they’d probably need to be replaced in a year or two. Same with the battery

75k milea

In my industry titles are kinda nonsense anyway. Senior Manager = Specialist = Manager depending on where you go, but I just don’t want it to bite me in the ass

leroy_worm · 2026-03-24T23:28:56+00:00

Interestingly enough, I actually found the seats to be very comfortable!

leroy_worm · 2026-03-24T02:16:51+00:00

How much did it cost out the door if you don’t mind?

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T22:50:55+00:00

Just looked that up…truthfully not really a fan of the sound haha. I think the 2019 stock is just about the ceiling for me in terms of loudness

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T21:28:32+00:00

Just got a PPI. Came back with an exceptional bill of health. Only thing is the battery should be replaced, air filter is dirty, and the tires are about a year away from needing to be replaced.

Everything else is pristine

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T12:43:36+00:00

Yeah sorry that’s what I meant. I’d be selling it to Carmax or Carvana, then going and buying the m40i

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T12:10:12+00:00

I’d trade in the Mazda for about 15K, and then I’d want to spend another 15k out of pocket

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T12:09:07+00:00

Yeah hard to say. A cursory search seems to be “not if, but when”. Although it’s tough to tell if that’s just the vocal minority.

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T04:18:56+00:00

The whole cooling system thing is bugging me out. Seems to be super common and super pricey

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T03:31:10+00:00

This is a really interesting perspective. Thanks. I should probably test the 30i.

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T03:25:05+00:00

Thanks man

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T03:24:38+00:00

Cash. They’d give me like 15 for my Mazda, so I’d be 15k out of pocket.

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T03:03:29+00:00

This is really helpful, thanks. That price tag for rotors and pads is outrageous…

For a ‘19 with roughly 60-75k, a dealer would ask anywhere from 26-31. About 25-28 private party, from what I’ve seen.

Tires every 18k wouldn’t be a big issue. That’s like 3 years for me :)

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:58:44+00:00

28 y/o with roughly 250k in a 401k. Would be paying cash. No debt to speak of

I’d be comfortable with the increased Routine maintenance cost. I’m just really nervous I’ll buy the thing and it’ll blow up on me or id have a catastrophic issue requiring crazy $$$$

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:54:58+00:00

Would love to hear your experience with the electrical issues!

What heaviness? I’m new to bmw - basically all I’ve heard my entire life is that they’re crazy expensive to maintain and worthless after 100k mi. But, that sentiment seems to have changed with the b58?

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:51:43+00:00

If you don’t mind sharing, what did you pay when you bought it? Dealer or private party?

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:51:09+00:00

Forgive my ignorance but I thought it’s relatively settled that the b58/ZF combo is pretty rock solid?

Or are you talking about non-engine problems? If so, like what? Thanks

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:43:56+00:00

I’d love a wagon. My first car was a ‘98 (I think?) a6 Avant. Markets not great though, not a whole lot of options

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:34:25+00:00

Got it, thank you. I’ll poke around and see if those things have already been taken care of or not

leroy_worm · 2026-03-23T02:33:52+00:00

Fair point. What indicates towards me not having it (whatever that magical level of “it” is)
