What's up guys , recently hit 120 000KM on my 2013 M135i PWG. Did a thorough maintenance and check on the car and heres what Stan and Rodz found at SR Speedworx:
1. The rear pads were changed to EBC yellow stuff, effectively running yellow stuff all round. Sensors replaced.
2. Oil Filter housing gasket tore and was subsequently replaced along with oil filter.
3. Scheduled oil service, 15 000km using Shell Fully Synthetic
4. Valvetronic system had to go through a relearn after being disabled by the ECU. Now running Code free
5. Coolant level was checked.
6. "Boost pressure lower than expected" code still being thrown during long drives. Turning it off and on solves the issue.

I'm fast creeping up on you... I'm on 110000. I see I also get a valvatronic issue but will check that out. Meanwhile, car will be going in to Zf for gearbox service

The car loves it , and the added benefit is that it's available at every Shell garage, unlike Royal Purple and Liqui Moly.
