BMW and M Power Owners

In 5.5 yrs I've never used "BMW" screenwash and have never had any issues... but have heard of problems so I just ordered 5l from ebay too ready for this winter...
Really think its time to move on my 530d f10 but used prices are still so high I can't justify the cost to change really when there is nothing wrong with the f10 (84k miles)

Do like the look of this M340i though

What dilution will you guys be using for the oem screenwash..... As - 63degs is overkill for UK in neat form. So would 1:1 be a good start?

That is exactly what I did - moved from my F10 530d to an M340i of exactly that specification (Different colour, though).

Whilst there are things that the F10 was better at it, I am very happy with the decision and really like the M340i. It's a great car.

I may get one of these next. Feeling the pressure to get something more practical than my M850i coupe. It's a good spec, but irritates me that Driving Assistant seems so rare.

M550i feels obvious choice for your situation, keep the amazing engine whilst getting a much bigger boot and bigger more comfortable seats than the 8. And good spec is easier to find

Does your neighbour's drive start on your drive?

I have an easement to drive over his access way - my house is built on what was a bit of his land. Can't see it on photo but the accessway turns to the left where his garage is and goes to the road

@Scythe yes indeed, my 5L has lasted me 2.5 years lol
i bought it as the nozzles on my current car clogged up and had to spend £90ish to get it unclogged by sytner
since then only been using the bmw stuff with no issues
(may be confirmation bias and n=1...but for basically £6 a year in washer fluid...no brainer really)
