My Ride: BMW 550I BLK
Model Year: 2007
Engine: N62
Cool I just hit 110k. What I've had to change so far was the expansion tank, the radiator fan, radiator hoses, total tranny service, upper bushings (still a problem). Now the indy shop tells me my steering rack is bad(23 hundred) and I also need a valve stem job (32 hundred) bc they found a leak...yikes!!! So I'm a lil worried. I love the 550 but what next. Seems like my radiator fan comes on awful fast and the car seems to rumble at stoplights then I turn off the ac and the idle is fine. What to do beside hearing over and over that I should of bought a 535

Keep in mind that the 535 has issues with deposits in the valves and it's costly to get cleaned. I almost got a 535i, but didn't want to deal with that.
