2006 BMW 3-series Expensive to maintenant
I want a 2006 BMW 325i this one that I'm looking at has 60,000-85,000 and I want to know how much a oil change will be! I drive a 2003 Volkswagen beetle deisol and to change the oil on that cost me about $80 so I'm use to spending that much on oil changes ill probably set aside $1,000 or $1,500 aside for Unexpected things that happen I'm 17 now and will be 18 in June I really want this car! I'm 6ft and I need 4doors I'm not really that worried on insurance because I'm only gonna have to pay for 1/2 of it I have a job now amd I'm putting a down payment on it and I'm gonna sell my car and ill have around $5-6,000 for a down payment and I'm only gonna fianince it for 48mo and that puts my patent right at what I can afford this car is less than $15,000 so I have this all planned out all I want to know is how much does a oil change cost and other stuff I will have to pay for I will be taking it to a little European auto shop that works in BMW's and there fairly reasonable! Please just give me some pros and cons about this yr car and your personal experience on it thanks I know it's a lot I'm sorry but thanks again! :)
My 06 bmw 325I starts but then it shuts off while on or running.
Hello, im new here, hopefully someone could help me find out what is wrong with my car. I have a 06 bmw 325I, I took it to the shop to get 2 of my oil leaks and also to get a new starter. When I got it back I took it for a spin, but then just out of nowhere it shut down, then I tried to turn it back on and start with no problem, so now its doing the same thing, even on park it shuts off sometimes it last long running but then shuts off. I already put new battery, alternator is good. Does any one have any clue on this. It wasnt doing this before they fixed the oil leaks and put a new starter.
Bmw key
Hey guys, I bought a Bmw 320 private sale, it has been working perfectly fine except recently I was driving and a sign came up on dash of a image of key with slash through it, I had another message displayed on the screen something on lines of if you stop car may not start again. When I finally did come to a stop and turned off the ignition I put the key back in and the car wouldn't start!! The same image of key with slash appeared on the dash!! I went back to car after hour or so and it worked perfectly fine. But again when driving at random times the same sign would appear. It's happend a few occasions now and if I get in the car sometimes I need to insert my fob 10 times + before the car comes on! But once it's on it drives fine! No problems! So basically it's very temperamental! Any ideas what this could be.
2006 E90 330xi Automatic transmission fluid/filter change?
Car: 2006 E90 330xi Automatic with 102k Miles w/ no issues in shifting of grears or performance of tranmission both in city and highway driving. Dealership mechanic says: Don't change AT fluid/filter; it is rated as lifetime fluid unless their is a problem with tranmission/shifting Outside reputed mechanic says: Change filter/fluid Forums: Few people have had issues after the fluid/filter change. Has anyone owning e90 3 series particularly the 330i/xi models with N52 engine and GA6HP19Z automatic tranmission changed their automatic transmission fluid? What is their thoughts and experience? Appreciate all of your feedback and answers.
