Any common Issues for 2006 BMW325ci e92..?? how is the maintainance fees??

[Veera]

Hello bro Seith C,

If you're in JB, there are few mechanics around here bro. M-Technic at Jln Tampoi, Kek Seng Auto at Tmn Tun Aminah (at Jln Shah Bandar behind Petron) as I service my car here and its a reasonable place, M-Power at Bestari and there is another one at Permas Jaya, but not sure of the address.

Also there are few more I guess which needs to be sourced around...

You may wanna ask the dealer whom you're buying the car as they will also suggest their panel workshop.

Found 2 units of e92 at mudah (1st & 2nd are the same one). check it out.

All the best bro and welcome to the UDM team...

haha...but then need to budget a bit cause i need to use everyday and 1 day can drive up to 200km sometimes..so no choice..
if i not wrong the maintainance for 335 also very high right..??
u driving a 335ci now..??..mind to share..?

Hello Veera,

Thanks for your info..is there any difference between recon or 2nd hand..??
i saw a recon one in 120k mileages and seems quite high for a recon car..

 

[Veera]

Bro Seith,

in my opinion, both recon & 2nd hand are considered as a used car.... eazy say...2nd hand laa...

what year is the recon with 120k milage which you saw?

the best I would suggest is bring along your mechanic to the dealer when you're going buy and the mechanic should be able to help and advice the car condition. but if going for a recon one, must be extra careful bro as not sure how it was driven in the past and how long it was not moving.

Which part of JB you are located?

 

[Seith_C]

Hello Veera,

I stay Megariah near Permas there.. Yalor, the only difference for recon car is the interest rate lower than a local 2nd hand car thought.

The one that i saw is 2006 120k mileage 325ci, at Kss automobile jalan kebun teh there.They have another one at KL branch which is 100k mileage.So far these is the only 2 2006 325ci i can found in recon.

Yup, that day i went in a We Care auto service at permas there and ask for their opinon too.they ask me to go for 2006 or 2007 which is N52 engine.They ask me drive the car there for them to check if i abke to get my interested car.

So which type u r using now..??..what year..??..any advise to me..?

I'm driving an E46 yr 2004 bro and been sourcing for an E90 320d, 323i & 325i.

Saw two 325i's year 2009 at jln kebun teh last weekend and the first one, mileage was high for a year 2006 car and the 2nd one was OK with the mileage, but it was not the colour I was looking for.

323i, very susah to locate in JB leh...

As for the 325ci which you saw, 120k mileage seems to be a fair one for a year 2006 car (8 yrs) (normally approx. 20k mileage a year based on normal usage).

Also just reconfirm on the AP with the dealer for the recon one which you saw, because before, some dealers used to use the same AP for few cars and it would cause problem if you wanna sell later.

Hi Veera,

Sorry being so busy throughout the whole day..actually I dont really know how the AP work..how I know they didnt use same AP for few car. ..??
Eem..but recon car should bring In not more than 5 years right..?.so the 2006 car probably ship in maybe 2011 time...cant be so high mileages right...??..haha..I am just guessing...325 2009 is which type engine. .??..

Try not to measure the car based on whether it will be smoked by a Myvi or Kancil bro. There will be times where you will get smoked but there is a lot more to enjoy in the E92. Cheers
