2004 BMW 330I ZHP MAINTENANCE LEDGER
Ok.....everything in my preventative/corrective maintenance section below....would/could pose a problem for you and this car in the future....my car is a 2/2004 330i, manual, with zhp package.
When looking to purchase
Look into/ask the question on whether or not the coolant system has been overhauled....the last time brakes were done.....what about CAB's and RTAB's.....check all window's (including the sunroof...ffs....for smooth operation)....check the sub frame for cracks......look for any type of oil residue on the block (take a flashlight with you)....Ask to see any/all maintenance records....ensure you operate the AC/Heat, and listen for abnormal sounds.....take the car up to a high rate of speed and note any irregular vibration.....check all lights.......drink a beer....ask him what kind of oil was used for the oil changes....drink another beer when you get the answer.....
Also....much info can be gained at http://www.bimmerfest.com/wiki/index...ook_out_for.3F
