[QUOTE="jarance, post: 375085, member: 21"] I drive an E36 for about 12 yrs. Reliable - maybe. breakdown record:- 1. Overheating - 1 time due to hose break. my fault cos never change when required. 2. Battery Kong - Old battery cannot start after idle for 1 week. 3. Crank sensor failure - 2 times @90K and @ 150K 4. Fuel Pump failure 1 time - after 120K 5. Gearbox failure - 1 time @ 150K So average about 1 breakdown every 2 years. BUT the joy of driving a BMW - 12 years and counting... [/QUOTE]
