I currently have some Falken tires on my BMW and was thinking of upgrading to either Pirellis, Michelin or Continentals any suggestions or advice? I’m leaning towards getting a performance tire but wouldn’t mind a touring tire either

Hey guys, Anyone experienced this before?

A low frequency humming/buzzing can be heard from inside the cabin. I hear it when the accelerator pedal is slightly depressed. The same sound also appears when the A/C is turned on, without depressing the accelerator pedal.

Hi there. I am thinking of purchasing a very low mileage used 330i X-drive. It’s loaded with options. My only concern is that it’s out of warranty. It will be my first BMW and I have a few questions:

Is there any known problems that I should be aware of before I buy it?

What is the expected maintenance cost annually? (I live in Canada)

What would be the expected big repair/ maintenance costs for short and long term? Thanks in advance for any input.

So if you have around 55 k to 60k to spend. Would you rather get a newer g20 m340i or opt for a more used f80 m3 ?

Hello, yesterday my mothers BMW started to overheat and i thought i would ask a few questions here before she has to spend money in a shop. i'm not perticularly adept in terms of vehicle mechanics so please ELI5

The float indicator for the coolant is just under the lid, so it should have enough fluid right?

i also noticed that there are some "gates" behind the grille, these are shut and do not open when you start the engine, could these be the issue?

Does anyone know what the OEM spark plugs are for a 2009 X5 3.0? Rockauto has a bunch of different options NGK, Denso, etc...

I ordered a new car. In effort to contain costs I didn’t get the Harmon Kardon stereo because it required the Premiere package. Any thoughts on quality of stock unit?

I am looking to replace the existing system with one that can include Carplay or Android Auto. Any suggestions

Hope you guys can help with this or know what I can do. My dad sold his 2003 Phoenix gold Manual M3 (with yellow interior) about 7 years ago I think as he needed the money, he loved the car and really didn’t want to sell it. He has the money now and I was hoping, I know it’s a long shot, that maybe I could find it for him and hoped this would be a good place to start. I however checked the DVLA website for the license plate and it can’t find it, is this bad news?

I’m going to have the tow hook installed for the license plate, any recommendations on where I should purchase, and if there are any differences. So I can either go for the 15$ Amazon ‘deliver tomorrow’ option, or eosplates.com $50 option. Sure saving money is a great option, but I don’t want to install some cheap trash, so quality over everything. Recommendations please.
