    08 BMW 335i 6A - Solid car?

    Looking at a very clean version of this car to buy. Black, 110k miles

    Any known issues with this model or anything I should look for that's a known issue with the car?

    Do the turbos hold up?

    Any insight is welcome.

    Thanks,

    at 110k miles you are just past the majour service point on these cars. Does it have any maintenance records? Turbos typically start to fail around 150k miles.
    Current:

    - 09 335i MSport, FBO.
    - 98 Euro M3, Estoril Blue
    - 04 M3, Carbon Black, 6 Speed Coupe

    I'm buying a 328 for my daughter and looked at the 335's. I chose to avoid the turbo cars because of the issues. I'd really look at the maintenance history.

    Aside from fuel injectors high pressure fuel pumps various oil leaks carbon clean personally I would not by a turbo car as techs say just more stuff to go wrong. A side note we have not had to replace hardly any turbos, even my shop kid has a 335 that beats the crap out of it has not had to replace the turbos
