330d Maintenance tips

[KarshS]

Hi Guys,

If i was to say mod my car and i lose plan what are the precaution parts that are normally changed while the car is in plan till 100k

Arbee told me about some pulley which i think is the crank pulley that gets changed around 90 000km.
What other parts get changed while on plan?
My car is on 50k odd.

Would like guys that have some mileage on there’s to share what has been changed so far.

The urge of getting a downpipe and software has kicked in.
Need more poooowwweerrrr......

Already..., you dont waste any time....

i unfortunately cannot help in terms of Mp parts, i got my e60 out of plan.

Crankshaft Dampener Pulley - Whether you mod or not, its gonna go. Its a common fault.

Injectors after 150 000km.

Other than that, i dont think there is much. Well, not much thats gonna be costly.

This did not take long :rollsmile:

Changed the Crank Pulley on 190000km, so they can last,
also changed shocks on 200000km, and just changed clutch and flywheel.
now its time for the rack ends and tie rods, about R1700 for both sides at GW.
Other than that the 330d is bullet proof!!:thumbs:
