Experience with BMW F10 Five-Series cars and mild appearance modifications

I have been carrying the car for more than three years, and after running more than 50,000 kilometers with me, I found that there were not many photos at all. I was really aggrieved. Taking advantage of the sunny day, the right temperature and nothing during the epidemic, I drove out and gave him a few close-ups. By the way, I also shared with the majority of riders my feelings about using the car for more than three years and my personal experience. Ha.

I am the standard axis version of the five series, compared with my friend’s long axis version, can only say that the back row can only be squeezed, the back row space can only be compared with A3!

Although the new model is very handsome, the old model is not out of date!

Replaced with a full set of M5 surround, front bar + black net + side skirt + rear bar

I’m too embarrassed to buckle the bid and replace it with M, ha.

The modification process has been rough, the original factory 17-inch wheel is really too stingy, 225 tire width can hardly open snow in winter, out of safety (appearance control), finally changed this set of 19-inch wheel, there are friends who want to change the hub can consult me, put the tire hub data for your reference, F10F18 is 5: 120 hole distance, and the current five-series hole distance is not the same, this should be noted. Tire specifications: the front wheel is 245 40 19 and the rear wheel is 275 35 19. This specification of the tire should be no ordinary tire, although the grip has been improved, but the tire noise is also a lot. Friends who want to change the hub must note that many of the changed wheels cannot be positioned in the 4s store, because the original BMW hub has five holes for fixed four-wheel positioning instruments in addition to screw holes.

Hub close-up ha, changed for more than two years, has not been inflated, every time to inflate the tire pressure has not been reduced!

A little dirty 0 0

This angle is a little handsome!

The front bar and the leaf board are collected by salted fish, why not buy the whole set directly, because I feel that the spray painting is too bad! We enter the insurance here, the 4s store will send 2000 vouchers (whatever), spray paint twice (2000 noodles in the 4s store), and some messy air conditioning cleaning and so on. Last year, the price of the 4s store was about 4000, and the car for 16 years has never been in danger. (traffic strength, 1 million of 3, no compensation for car damage) for your reference.
When I changed the bar, I thought I was very good, so I could press it. Unexpectedly, the original car was removed, the modified bar could not be installed, and the color difference of the dismantled parts sent was too large, so I contacted the 4s store whether I could drag it. Anyway, I was insured and used all the things I sent, and I didn’t charge me any more money. 4s store said I was the first to do this.

Can not load, towed to the 4s store, the first time to take the scooter, did not expect because I am too stupid!

The owners of this five-series car must have a consensus that the exhaust from one side of the car’s butt is simply the failure of this car! Obviously leave the other half of the exhaust installation position, just press one side for you, it is really difficult for friends with obsessive-compulsive disorder! The back bar side skirts are all Taiwan-made AN goods, and the degree of fit is still very good. The master of the modification store also said that there are too many changes now, and the products are very mature!

Pure hand-sewn steering wheel cover, a treasure, to solve the problem of cool in winter and hot in summer!

We are out of gas, and the fuel consumption is about 11.

Cute cub.

There is also the issue of maintenance, many new car owners may have many different questions. It is not always right to share your personal experience and suggestions on using the car.
First of all, there is the problem of engine oil. I did not change the oil at the 4s store a long time ago. There is still a lot of oil certified by BMW, and there is no problem with the goods in the major flagship stores. We mainly talk about how much to add. Those who maintain in 4s stores all know that BMW default to add 5L oil, in fact, adding a little more 4L is enough, adding too much will lead to great pressure in the cylinder. I don’t know if this is the cause of the BMW oil leak, but it should also have something to do with it. To be honest, people who drive the same car around us all have the phenomenon of oil leakage. Oil leakage from the valve cover seems to have become a default problem. Many car mechanics say that there is no BMW that does not leak. When adding 5L oil to detect the oil level, it is above max. I usually add about 4.3. the oil position is between mix and max, so you can pay attention to it later.
Three filter problems, I usually double 11 in a certain treasure direct air conditioning oil to buy a set, change once a year, gasoline filter element changed every two years, generally only about 400.
Professional issues, such as spark plug gearbox oil, still have to be changed in 4s stores, and there are often activities to pay attention to.
My 45,000 replacement spark plug, the replacement is still very new, the little brother said that sticking to 20,000 is no problem T T

The car, which has been going on for nearly 4 years, hasn’t started leaking oil yet. I hope he can stick it out.

Nothing has gone wrong so far, except that the oil pan of the gearbox just bought for half a year has leaked oil and re-applied the sealant.

Finally, you are welcome to share the problems used in the use of the car. If you need to collect the dismantled parts of the original car, you can contact me, ha, as a joke. I wish you all a happy life.
