Congrats, you'll come to realize over time the subtle (but great) differences with an M car. I thought it was hype until I got mine. Even the...
Get the M3, you won't regret it and you'll never look back. Don't expect to get the same gas mileage as the 335 though. Of course if the...
I had to get a 4.8i X5 for the real winter driving, but the M3 gets me around town just fine. I wash it once a week and plastered it in 3m film so...
Agree, no issue at all, even in deeper snow, up to say 10 inches. Its better than the 335i I had because the power delivery is smoother and the...
Update For those who are interested, we are now well into X5 ownership and have amassed 14000 km since January. My wife loves it and the kids...
Hmm, I wasn't debating the merits of the technology or saying that I could shift faster, I said I like shifting myself better. I'm not a relic,...
I have to chime in for the 6MT. I'd rather do it myself. There is something about the enjoyment of a perfectly rev matched heel and toe downshift...
I had 3 335i's between October of 07 and October of 08. All three of them had at least one hpfp replacement. My understanding is that the seals...
A place called Leatherz sells a spare kit. Its a little pricey though. The M's don't use runflats so you are beholden to the M Mobility kit if you...
Thanks, have dealt with Gary many times. He knows BMW fitments very well. At one point I think the UPS guy thought I ran a tire and wheel store...
yes, their selection is OK but nothing tunrs my crank
Now that spring has rolled around I've put my M 19 inch wheels on and while they are works of art I'm thinking of getting something lighter and maybe...
I thought maybe you had a 328 after I posted. The leakdown thing will help. It did with my 530. An opportunity to get my dream M3 exactly to my...
I had this issue on my 07 335i coupe as well and as well on an 06 530xiT. As the two engines are quite different I think the issue you are having...
Yup, its worth every penny. I had a 335i Dinan S2 coupe and s 335i sedan with sport and premium packages. I switched to the M3 about 6 months ago....
Lacking a bit compared to an M3 but for an SUV its fabulous. Very smooth, torquey. Passing on the two lanes is almost an after thought. We are...
Well, we did it. Took delivery of an X5 4.8i Sport and Activity packages, 7 passenger Monaco on Beige. What a fantastic vehicle in comparision to...
Sage advice. My wife got home yesterday and the Toyota had been hit yet again. Goddam people around here. This latest one will definitely require...
Sorry if this is long and painful... I'm a day or two away from picking up a 4.8i for my wife...I think. At the moment we have an 08 Sequoia...
I had this issue with my 06 530xiT. The dealer did a "leak down" on the hydraulic lifters and it went away. I think that meant they bled the...
