Hey guys, I bought an 2008 E90 BMW 320D auto in 2016, 68k on the clock. It is now at 107k and during the 3+ years, it's had its share of issues.
- brake disc and wheel bearing replacements (expected wear and tear)
- ABS sensor and drive shaft replacement (known issue)
- several oil leaks (known issue)
In total about £2k of repairs.
It's now at a stage where I am not sure if I should keep fixing it. Right now the EML light is on and it requires a DPF clean and replacement glow plug modules and glow plugs so that it regenerates the DPF. As well as some smaller electrical fixes.
This would set me back about £1,200.
I have also had a few times where I have had to pull over because of the auto gearbox malfunctioning - stopping the car, and turning off and on typically resolves this.
Anyone else had an E90 BMW, worth keeping or should I move on?
