Very good and detatiled write up to the e-series.
I owned a LCI E92 , comes with a DCT transmission gear box, not sure which is identical to M model.. but it is very fun with it since I owned few manual model cars and one of e90 with 6 speed manual previously. BUT this transmission inside had a RPM sensior to send signal doing calculation to determinate which gear should run on it. Unfortunately , the gearbox filled DCT fluid, which is very high temperature boiling it. Mine was fail at 116km , I think around 72k mile. Costed us$ 2400 at dealer to replace it , with all consumable , oil pan, cover, gasket..... luckily not the clutch but BMW suggested me to do it (another 2.4k us). Other than the regular parts replacement that listed by Nick. This was the big $ spent on it .... others items except underneath to replace DCT oil pan. I do DIY
My odo now is 90k mile. And hope to keep it as the handling is fun and power is sufficient to me riding in HK.
