Pre Purchase Checks
Hi guys, new member here in Sydney.
I am looking at a 2011 E90 320D Sportline with 50,000km today and was wondering what obvious things are to check for? I do all my own work on my vehicles and have a pretty good idea around cars. The car has been supposedly driven by a lady owner its whole life and servicing has been done regularly. What problems and issues are obvious when driving these vehicles. I know about checking for servicing through the onboard Idrive system. Not too sure whether I can get under it at its location. |

Look for leaking oil around the oil filter housing (common) and rattling turbos. Otherwise hard trust the normal things with any used car
