I thought about the same but I think you have to do some cutting to the car to make room for the 8374.

Yeah I heard some moderate modifications to the subframe. I haven't talked with them about it but if it isn't too drastic I'm gonna try it out

2013 f30 335i xdrive m sport n55

everything is fine knock on the wood lol

flushed every fluid
ofhg
belt
fan and relay replaced
sparkplugs
oil change every 10K

That's all I did since I got it at 150K

I'm thinking of walnut blasting now.

[DriveBikeRun]

24k miles - 2011 E90

- Getting ready for its 4th oil change
- PO had brake fluid changed twice due to age, I guess
- charge pipe blew at 18k, day two of my ownership, replaced with CPE

Just waiting and watching for some of the common issues, but so far so good.

[Herakles]

2011 with 37k

[SnapCoupe]

Figured I would post in here for those interested in 2011 N55 reliability issues.

2011 335i, purchased last September with 70k miles on it. Currently has 86k miles.

71k: Water pump, thermostat, upper radiator hose, belts, OFHG.

74k: Front brakes, new clutch, oil change.

78k: Spark plugs and coilpacks.

80k: trans/diff flush and oilchange

84k: New motor due to rod bearing failure

86k: Break-in oil change

At this point I could've had a LCI E90 M3 any way I want with low miles, and still had left over $$ for that V8 gas bill. Oh well, ya live and ya learn I guess. This will for-sure be my last non-M BMW.

[xxMike61]

2011 335i at 89k

Oil pan been leaking since 74k
Plugs and coils changed 82k
Oil change at 80k
Oil change at 85k with oil analysis which came back clean.
VCG is starting to get a bit dirty right now
Watching ofhg and already bought new gasket.

Stressed about rod bearings going out

[Kev0]

2011 335i e92 at 50k.

VC, VCG and battery replaced a little under 50k

Coils, plugs, maf and map replaced at 50k

[keyap]

2011 135i.

30k miles

Bought from dealer when a few months old as an ex demo.

Was running OEM turbo at high teens in lower to mid rpm band and low teens in upper rpm band from mid 2012 to mid 2015 and from mid 2015 have been running a PS2 targeting 20psi min and 25 max

Bar normal services (which were just services and needed no additional work), mods I've done (as per signature) and some re-call related work done by BMW, I've done no additional maintenance work and car has only needed new tyres and a drive shaft after I broke original during a 25psi 3rd gear WOT run!

[vespa]

Curious to know how you broke the drive shaft at 3rd gear velocities and lived to tell about it. The car stayed right-side up?

[keyap]

Issue was where it joins the diff. Thankfully the diff was OK.

This all was in one service. the 1888 was just the turbo i believe, or a portion of the labor too. When i took it into my private guy he gave it a long look over and said all my big items are good to go

[Pladi]

^^ I think this guy got an engineering prototype car lol 2010 n55 ?

[Ozzie335i]

My 2011 that was made in May of 2010. Maybe that is when Rival's was made.
