BMW 325i reliability and maintenance

Dan 15 April 2005 18:15:02
 I own a 1998 toyota camry with 190K miles on it. I had no major problem
with the car. It only needed oil change, timing belt, water pump, spark
plugs, idle control valve and other standard maintenances. It is still
going strong but a very boring machine.

I am considering buying a new 325i. How is the 325i reliability and the
cost of maintenance? Is it easy to maintain? I am planning to do the
maintenance. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

My previous car was a Civic and I currently own a 325i. I couldn't
agree more with the above assessment. With the Civic, I had zero
problems. With the 325i, I've had several minor problems, and
one engine problem (ignition coil failure).

My previous car was a Civic and I currently own a 325i. I couldn't
agree more with the above assessment. With the Civic, I had zero
problems. With the 325i, I've had several minor problems, and
one engine problem (ignition coil failure). But if I had to choose
between the two, I'd still go with the 325i.
