But my concern is the maintenance of the car. It seems like everybody is saying that I need at least 1k extra for maintenance of the car <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite5" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":confused:" /> . Meaning that in a year I must at least spend about 8K for repairs and all <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> .Every month I have to pay the bank the sum of about 1.6k for 9 years . That is still under my budget. But from what I’ve heard the maintenance cost will kill me. How is this so <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite5" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":confused:" /> ? Aren’t BMW are a good car??? It is an expansive car and shouldn’t it be more reliable compared to other car?? I heard that it is quite common for the sensors to fail and there are a lot of sensors in an E46. The power window and transmission also giving a lot of problem. I don’t want to spend all of my money just on the car<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /> .I appreciate some feedbacks from all of BMW owners <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> . Thanks</p></blockquote><p></p>
