Congrats on the F22 and welcome to the forum!

Wow what model 320d is it? Excellent mileage. Any tips and maintenance that you have done to keep it going thus far?

Thank you. It’s a 2007, manual.
Removed swirl flaps, EGR and Cat.
Service every 10k with LiquiMoly and now runs with an additive called Ceratec.
New clutch, prop shaft rebuild, steering rack rebuild, new starter motor and alternator and A/C condenser, compressor and radiator.
And normal maintenance: control arms, tie rods and rack ends.
We’d like to do the cam chain, bearings, oil pump and turbo next. Would love to see it get to 500k and beyond. Very special, sentimental car. In the family since new.

Brilliant thanks for the info.

That's excellent, seems like the M47 motor is a peach when maintained properly. I was always under the impression that it was not as reliable as the N47 (bar the timing issues in some N47s) for some reason.
