I concur; high mileage is subjective and may encompass anything up to 250,000 miles, I presume. The service history is crucial; after you identify a desired vehicle, obtain the VIN and contact BMW support. They will provide you with the servicing details via email, allowing you to verify if it corresponds with the iDrive records. Indeed, servicing nine times out of ten is crucial; nevertheless, the issue lies in BMW's imprudent extended mileage oil intervals, which may be acceptable for the initial years but are suboptimal. Consequently, even with 100,000 miles on the odometer, individuals erroneously believe that changing the oil every 13,000 to 18,000 miles is adequate. If an individual has performed the servicing themselves, there may be concerns regarding their use of appropriate oil or opting for inferior products from discount retailers, necessitating the examination of invoices.

MBZ Autos in Canterbury is well regarded, depending on your location.

Greetings, When replacing the ignition leads, note that there are only two, and remember to also replace the plug covers located under each coil.

It arrived preloaded. Is comfort access equivalent to the driving modes? Comfort, efficiency, performance? Or an alternative?

I will attempt a reset. I acquired the battery from the nearby BMW store. No one mentioned the need of registering the battery to the vehicle. What is the method for doing this? No codes are there at the moment, however I will verify with a fresh scanner. Thank you for your assistance.

possess a 2017 M240i convertible Removed it from storage, and after a few days of use, the battery unexpectedly depleted. I replaced the original battery. Several days later, we attempted to utilize the automobile, only to find the fresh battery was depleted.
