Hi pingu
Good ar. Iove the cheap mod.
I run fast sometimes. But not crazy. I need speed. But not crazy for speed.
I just need to use the energy of the gas wisely. I think u are the same.
As the car is already 5 yrs old. I really dont know how much longer I can hold on to it. I'm afraid there will be too much to fix when it gets older.
5 series is a very advance car. But just too many little problem need to fix when it gets old.
So I don't want to spend too much on it.
Many things I need to learn from u. As I can see u spend much time on getting all mods.
And I need to ask u how to install them. Sorry to trouble u.

hi wnshie
thanks so much for your advise.
i just got my 06/ 525i from my cousin at about 41xxxkm, it is 42xxxkm now by me.
this is the 1st time i had a used bmw.
seems like many things got little problem. ![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
i'm going take it back to bmw for oil change and car check in june.
i think, it should be back with confidence after that. basically, there is no hit on this car, only little problems. and he had not send back to bmw for service for most of the time, maybe only 1-2 times per yr, he say they takes longer time to fix for everything.
so no more e60 for u? because car too old?

i see, i guess they have the full check list to follow every time when i do oil change. thats why, for all my cars experience, i always take my car back to fty for service. because i don't know it, and i think the fty follow up better than all other auto shop.
i thought if take to after market auto shop, let say, i want to change engine oil, they will just change engine oil, they will not chk any other things, that's why i go back to original fty.
how is the sing fai compare to ??or other shop, how do they check up?
and how about charges?
i have got the shop info, one of the other member from here told me at the bmw fan forum already, and told me about this forum yesterday.![Tongue](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/tongue.gif)
the guy only start work after 3.
do u know when will it be nxt month, on weekend right?
sure, but i don't drive fast.
and i don't have any mod.![Tongue](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/tongue.gif)

hello
when idling, the rpm at 600-650, inside the car, there is "lon'lon" sound,![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
once i step onto gas, above 700rpm, no more sound.
last week, it suddenly ask me to add 1 liter engine oil, last oil change at jan, nxt oil change at june.![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
after i add 1 liter, no problem now.
on last monday, my steeling wheel cannot be adjust, b4 it malfunction, there is "ka''ka"ka'sound.
nxt morning, i chk again, no problem, at nite time, i chk again, still no problem.
i like the performance, but all these little problem make me worry.
