Hello Everyone, Here is my baby. Loving my car. It's a 2009 328xi Sedan without navigation
Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum, but I am about to go pick up my 09 335i x-drive on Saturday. Any tips or advice as to what to look for or ask about when I get to the dealership?
I just wanted to introduce myself as a new owner of my first E90 325i (previously owned an E36 325i). We gave her a first bath and clay yesterday.
2006 BMW 325i | Arktis Metallic | Premium + Sport Package | 6spd Manual | 78,000 mi
First Mods: Charcoal Delete, 20% tint and air freshner!
I use this as my DD but plan on keeping it for a long long time. I've decided to do oil changes every 5k miles. The only issue I had after 2 weeks was it started overheating so I had the water pump, t-stat replaced and coolant flushed...extended warranty FTW!! Other than that it runs great, shifts smooth, and solid as a rock.
I can't get access to the mainenance records due to privacy laws, so this is what I plan on doing at 80k, please let me know if you'd suggest anything else (my driving conditions here in San Diego are good):
- Oil Change (Castrol Edge w/Syntec 0W-30)
- Rear Differential Flush (Castrol or Royal Purple 75W-90??)
- Manual Tranny Flush (Royal Purple Synchromax or Redline MTF??)
- Replace Air Filter (K&N)
- Replace Cabin Filter + Cabin Clean & Disinfect
- Replace Spark Plugs (Bosch FR7NPP332)
- Replace the Shift Bearing
- Possibly a Power Steering Flush (Pentosin CHF 11S)
- Should I replace the fuel filter for preventative purposes??
- Anything else??
Anyways I'm excited to be a part of the E90 community!! Thanks in advance for any feedback...

Just wanted to introduce myself on here! Picked up an 07 335i hard-top a few months back from a race buddy of my dads. I love it. It's my first manual DD and I can't get enough of it!
It's currently in the shop, getting the turbo's replaced. I found out I had the infamous wastegate issue shortly after I picked it up, and the recommended completely replacing them.
Hello, Just purchased my first BMW. I would like to do a stage II Mod. I would like to buy all the products (air-intake, cat-back exhaust, and tuning chip) from the same company. Hopefully with help I can take advantage of discounts offered to members here. The car is out of warranty, so I assume I can save some money with out having to use Dinan or other factory authorized companies.
As a side note, I don't want the exhaust to be a lot louder at cruising speed, mostly just on acceleration.
Any suggestions and expected HP gain would be appreciated. I am so new here, I can't even find my previous posts, to see if anyone has responded???:?
Hey everyone, saying hi from San Diego here (well right now in Kansas) I will be driving my newish 2006 330i Sport Package back to Cali in the morning. This will be my 4th BMW. Gotta say I am looking forward to this one. Will try to post pictures up later tomorrow.
Hey everyone! I just joined this community and would like to introduce myself. Recently got my 2007 BMW 328i. Had her for a little over a month and enjoying every bit of it!
On my way home from Reno NV to Crozet VA with my new-to-me 2008 335xi. Second BMW car, following two BMW motorcycles. Three weeks and over 3,000 miles later, just love this car.

Hello everyone!! I have had my 2007 335i 6MT for about a year now and I love it. I plan on keeping it for a while. I just recently got into the forums but quickly realized that I am not the only one out there that loves my car and other BMWs.
Here is a couple pictures I took while she was getting some maintenance done with the new M Wheels on

Hey just bought our first BMW a 2009 328i. We love it so far. Still has warranty but the sucky part is we just relocated to South Dakota and the closest BMW dealership is 5 hrs away
I just bought my e92 335i 6 days ago. So far I have installed OEM black kidney grills, plasti-dipped side reflectors, tinted the windows, and I'm having black lower mesh grill installed tomorrow evening. I ordered GP Thunder 7800k H8 bulbs to replace the yellow halos and I plan on painting the chrome window trim black. Other than that, I'm not sure what else I'll do to the car. I'm coming from a slightly modded Infiniti g35 coupe. That was lowered nearly 3inches, it had +5,-5 offsets, exhaust, intake, full tint (including windshield), and a few other small mods. I'm thoroughly enjoyed my e92 and I plan to continue modding it! Here are some pictures of it:
And if anyone cares, my old G35:

Hello All! Just picked up my 2011 E90 335i today and already am in love with it. I was previously in a B6 S4 so the sports sedan market has been my home for a while. Mod's I'm thinking about are JB4, DCI's, full exhaust, and of course getting tint on this asap! Look forward to getting to know the members and the community.
Here she is right after papers signed, not yet ready for delivery.
