I have 131k on my car. I bought it with 35k on it. I thought the first owner just slapped tue 550i bagde on the car bc i thought all 550i were m sport. I put msport rear and a mtech front bumpers on. Anyway i have changed the xpansion tank and the top radiator hose twice, dont know why bimmer made the clamp the way they did but it snaps off. I changed the raidiator fan, the rack and pinion, and just did the valve stem job last march oh and i did the transmission service which is a must

I guess because plugs come pre-gapped, nobody knows what the gaps are and the dealer and indies aren't telling.
