How Much Money I spent on Repairs in 2021 - E92 M3

  • A 9 year old E92 M3 with only 35,000 miles can also have some surprises. However, 2021 was more than 6x more expensive, per mile, compared to the previous years I had the car. I wanted to make this video about the expenses I incurred in 2021, and why it is important to be prepared for anything to happen. Lots of big fixes all at once, whereas the past few years have been tragically inexpensive to run the car, it was flawless. Happy Car Shopping!!

    I've found that throttle actuator failure depends on how the person drives. Using the DCT at max setting and lots of downshifts seems to make them die early.

    Your car looks great. I'm getting issues after hitting a pothole at 80 mph on California's well maintained freeways. I think I jarred the connections to the intercooler as it lost power and said to reduce speed. Seems to have gone away, but I'm sure I've gotta take it in... Uggggg

    Take away the rod bearings and that’s only about 3900 bucks. Thats really good. Especially for an E9X. S65’s didn’t have the rod bearing issue as much as the 85’s did. Still, good on you for doing the work to ensure that car would not have that problem in the future.

      you should go to performance dynamic. they're not that cheap these days, upped the hourly rate but they usually bill less hours than other shops. most important part that it's probably the most reputable shop in the bay right now. you'll get a lot of recs for it in norcal bmw groups.

    All you had to do is warm the engine up before driving it and your rod bearings will last over 100k miles.
