ArthurL's E93 M3 Progress Thread

Bonjour à tous, je viens de prendre un 08 E93 M3 aujourd'hui. Je voulais juste m'arrêter et me présenter. Je vais continuer à mettre à jour ce thread avec mes progrès.

Elle a 121K sur le tableau de bord. Je viens d'acheter une tonne de liquide à Turner (huile moteur / filtre, filtre cabine, filtre moteur, fluide de transmission / filtre / anneau de joint d'étanchéité, fluide différentiel, liquide de frein, liquide de direction assistée et liquide de refroidissement) et elle aura réparé demain matin. Je vais aussi demander au mécanicien de regarder les bougies, courroies, poulies, châssis et tuyaux pour s'assurer que tout semble bien.

Voici quelques photos !

121K plus tard et elle est toujours sexy

I had a PPI done a few weeks ago and it came out fine, the car just needed some maintenance done to it.

I just wanted to have another mechanic look over it a second time while he serviced the car.

Had all the fluids replaced this afternoon.. now I have a peace of mind moving forward with the car. Sending an oil sample out to Blackstone tomorrow for an oil analysis.

Here are some pics from today:

as long as the car was properly maintained, and the oil samples comes back clean, then having a car with 121k on the clock should be no issues...

nice and congrats

I love high mileage examples in the E9x M3 arena that is too often filled up with bad news headlines. Have no proof, but I suspect there are way more of our cars that perform in relatively faultless fashion over the long haul. Congrats on a great choice. You might want to check out Mike Miller's Old School Maintenance Schedule, although you are spot on with all the fluid replacement. This simple step is #1 on his list.

Just picked up an RPi axle-back exhaust this afternoon.. they're going on the car tomorrow. Pretty excited!

Congrats

Just mount my winter set this evening, finally some peace of mind.

Blizzaks (245/40/18) on Sport Edition A7 wheels (18x8 +20).

very nice, congrats on the new car

Welcome to the club!

Didn't know M3's had the chrome window trim option! First one I've seen with it.

Standard on the E93.

Good call putting on the snow tires as the snow was pretty deep this morning. I don't know how people drive with summers/all seasons on a rwd..

Good thing I threw on the winter set last night because I definitely wouldn't have made it to my mechanic to install this:



It's the RPi GT Axle Back exhaust.. and it sounds amazing. Nothing obnoxious but it's aggressive sounding enough that I'm 100% content with.

I feel the M3 sounds very tame from factory.. an aftermarket exhaust is a must!

Nice little Christmas present. How much you pay?
