Why was the airbag replaced? I have the same car as you and never needed any of that stuff done. That is a lot of stuff done that is not wear and tear. $17k is way too much considering on eBay/Auttrader right now they are scores of 2011 335i xDrive sedans loaded with less mileage for the same money.

The car definitely had a few additional repairs. Anything standing out as red flags? A lot seems to have been replaced on this car. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. On one hand, the items are newer, on the other hand they needed to be replaced.
22k miles: Rear brakes replaced (KIND OF EARLY BUT OK)
37k miles: Windshield molding replaced & radiator replaced (STRANGE?)
40k miles: Intake silencer serviced (AIR FILTER) & stabilizer bar bushings replaced
43k miles: Coolant reservoir replaced (STRANGE?)
53k miles: Fuel injector(s) replaced
55k miles: Camshaft(s) replaced/repaired. Cylinder head gasket(s) replaced.
56k miles: Engine oil pump replaced. Left airbag assembly replaced.
...then they replaced the entire short block I guess due to those recent engine issues. The engine replacement comes with a 2yr warranty (Nov 2017). Buyer is asking 17.5k. 2011 335i convertible. M-Sport. Every option except the Harmon Kardon. What do ya'll think?
