• BMW 3 Series Compact - BMW Owned from New to Scrap 11 Aug 2020 (Forum)
    The question we are both left with is that our mileage does not justify the cost of a new car but just how reliable are BMWs, Audis and Mercs as they get older?This is the only car in over 50 years of driving that has ever failed to complete a journey. We will celebrate the memories with a bottle of fizz in the sun later.
• BMW 3 Series - Charge for fault finding while under warranty? 2 Oct 2019 (Forum)

• BMW 3 Series Touring - Steering Vibration on BMW 19 Oct 2012 (Forum)
  It could then reappear again for no apparent reason. I too suspected worn suspension bushes but my indipendant BMW garage (Bentons of Ely)  identified the problem as being due to a binding front brake caliper.  So - a new caliper, two new discs and a new set of front brake pads completely cured the problem AND gave me a much livelier motor with much better fuel consumption.
