The 07 525i with 123k miles has had more than a handful of issues, pretty much all since 100k miles. We have had it since 45k on the clock, so we've tallied 80k miles Of course the standard maintenance PLUS, starter, rear window trim, belt tensioner, cam position sensor, DTML pump, COPs, coolant tank, oil cooler and filter housing gaskets rock hard and leaking, water pump. Right now it needs the headliner reaffixed to the moon roof door and it needs cam cover gasket.
My 16YO son saw the "Service" light on my 550 that came up last week for spark plugs at the same time I was waiting for parts for the 525 water pump and he said, "Man these BMWs always have something that needs fixing!" Not exactly true but the 525 has had more than its share.
