2001 E46 (325ci): simple maintenance?
Greetings,
My project car is a 1985.5 Porsche 944 (parts supplied by Pelican Parts :-) but my commuter car is a 2001 BMW 325ci. Since I do a lot of work on my 944, I have a hard time believing that the 325 can go for many, many miles before it asks to be serviced.
For example, I could not stand to have the original air filter element in the car after 10k+ miles (and the car still a ways from a service appointment) so I replaced it. I felt better than my car was breating freely.
Regarding the spark plugs, I wonder how long those things will last and when I should replace them? The car has around 56k miles on it and has the original plugs. (I bought the car at 26k miles, 2 years ago.)
How often do you guys change your spark plugs? Does the 325 come with platinum plugs that go for 60k miles?
