Awesome and congrats on the new car. You will love it. I don’t think there is much to worry about at 30k miles. I would check the cabin air filter if the hasn’t been replaced and maybe the engine air filter? Other than that I think you should be good to go.

First - congratulations and welcome to the happy world powered by B58 engine. You will love it!
I suggest to check the coolant level in both main and auxiliary reservoirs. Please do it in the morning after the vehicle had a chance to cool completely. Main tank reservoir cap has been reported by many as defective (mine included) and had to be replaced. Check for dry white residue after removing the main reservoir cap. If present - get a new cap or have the dealer replace it if the vehicle is still under warranty. Enjoy the ride! |

Beautiful car! Blue is my favorite color on the 340 Does the car have an after market exhaust? the exhaust tips look like they are sticking more than original ones.

Nice!
We have the same interior scheme. I always change out the pollen filter on pre-owned cars, it's easy and cheap! https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...119237555-blue |

Ok guys,
I need some help. I have exhausted the general forum and mechanical maintenance forum for some sort of solid intel on maintenance intervals for this 340 xDrive. I cant find sh*t. If any of you guys have a list that you follow or if you could recommend me a thread it'd be greatly appreciated! |
