You grew up with me, and I grew old with you, my old buddy F18 525Li

It has been eight years since I bought Xiao Wu for 13 years. With 8 years and 128756 kilometers of company, he and I have all grown up together. We have used the car by ourselves and wrote some experiences to share with you. Nowadays, more and more F18 are flowing into the second-hand car market. Share your experience with the partners who buy second-hand cars. The real personal first-hand car is close to 130000 kilometers in 8 years. You can refer to my car to see some so-called first-hand cars. The F18 of this generation is a straight six engine in the early stage, and the N20 four cylinders replaced in the second half of 12 years have obvious advantages, such as light acceleration, fuel saving, low maintenance cost, and more obvious shortcomings. the oil leakage of the valve cover cushion and the aging of the oil lattice base adhesive strip will also leak oil. The cold car starts the whole basement to hear, the later stage B48 is really much lighter.

The Crazy Stone directed by Ning Hao in 2006 redefined BMW. Haha, the material is taken from the movie Crazy Stone.

In the 2020 short film “Spring Festival of Bayer”, director Ning Hao redefined BMW, a very warm short film that you can search on the Internet to see.

Valiant Xiao Wu.

The slender side is still energetic.

The 3108 wheelbase brings a spacious back row and a very bad parking experience.

A carelessness is a scratch.

As for me with a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, I have to repair my car whenever something is wrong, otherwise I feel like I have something blocked in my heart, ah.

It left the factory in April and picked up the car on May 18. I still remember it very clearly.

It’s not dirty here, but the friction between the seat belt buckle and the seat. BMW is really not as good as Audi at this point. I bought a bracer on my wrist, but it was too late.

The bracer on the wrist is worn to avoid friction with the seat. The car has never used a seat cover, which is also a big reason for wear and tear. It has always been a seat cushion. After all, the high temperature in Zhejiang in summer tests my ass very much. I don’t have the courage to sit directly on the leather.

The common fault of F18 series is 1, which is also a common fault of 3 series in the same year. The 2019 BMW X1 has changed to hard plastic. Although it is not comfortable to touch it, it does not have the trouble of stickiness in the later stage. The coating on the top of this plastic will be very sticky after aging, which is after the replacement of the parts purchased by a certain treasure.

This is before the replacement, the auxiliary driver window should be changed as soon as possible, otherwise the leather on the door handle will also be replaced, increasing the cost.

Common fault 2. The cracking of electronic handbrake can also be solved by a certain treasure.

Common fault 3. Cracking of air outlet of front row air conditioner

Common fault 4, one button ignition switch paint off, this can be replaced with the air outlet, go to the repair shop to replace it

Common fault 5. The natural aging of the front windshield sink will fall off if you press it with your hand.

Common fault 6, after replacing the antifreeze, the float inside is broken, which leads to a false alarm all the time. I need to check the antifreeze level regularly. The solution is also very simple, outside specialized repair shop, repair shop, some treasure can also buy their own kettle, the cost is about 500 +

Common fault 7, the main driving side of the headlight leakage, need to re-sealant, I appeared in about 18 years, this picture is 2020, my co-driver headlamp naturally cracked, resulting in water leakage here, re-replace the big lampshade, sealant, find their own lighting shop, maintenance time is about 3 hours, need to bake headlamps, the cost is 500kg, when there are dense water droplets, please go to repair as soon as possible Otherwise, the headlight control computer board will burn, and it will be troublesome.

I am still embarrassed after maintenance, and I still like this generation of honeycomb turn lights. In the later stage, the F18 turn signal will be an ordinary light bulb, unless there is a headlamp on top.

BMW’s indirect tire pressure alarm is really crappy. By calculating the speed difference between the two wheels to alarm, for a long time, I wanted to upgrade the tire pressure alarm with temperature tire pressure display in the original factory. After that, as the car gets old, it will no longer be mentioned.

Another common fault is that the sponge of the air conditioner blower shell is damaged, where there will be leaves to go in. the appearance is that after the wind volume increases, you will hear a very loud whistling sound. In fact, there is no need to replace the whole blower shell, just replace that sponge. This is also the time I was cheated.

This is the story of me and my old buddy. with the increasingly stringent emission regulations, maybe Xiao Wu won’t be with me for a long time. I just want to write something down. See you next time.
