My Ride: BMW 525dA E61 2004-09

My E61 is from 2004/8, and I have had them changed twice (!!!!) as warranty the first time and as sparepartwaranty the second time. FIrst set from factory went bad after just a couple of weeks (!), second pair after 3 months..... Seems to be what they call a 'known problem' :>

Enjoy the upcoming weekend and I will enjoy the noce spring weather we have had here in the Netherlands the last couple of days :>

Regards marineutter
