What to do at 80,000 miles?
I have an 08 e92 DCT with 79,xxx and I plan to do a major 80,000 mile tune up. Besides trading it in for something else, what else from the list below should I do?
So far, I plan to DIY: √Battery √Oil change Diff fluid change √Tires front and rear √Brake Pads front and rear (Rotors changed at 60,000 miles) √Brake Fluid √Spark plugs √Air filter Power steering fluid Wiper blades What am I missing? Last edited by LucWerkz; 05-19-2013 at 03:07 AM.. |

How is the car holding up at 80k miles? Did you change the clutches in your DCT? As far as things to do, pretty much what you said would be good. Make sure that you flush your radiator and change your thermostat. Look at your hoses and your drive belts too.

It's holding up pretty well. More rattles than what I would like, but those started appearing at 25,000 miles. Nothing has been done to the DCT. Quote:

At 80,000 miles are you still covered by the extended warranty? The reason I ask is because my factory warranty expires in July 2013 and I am very hesitant to own the car out of warranty with the DCT. I have looked into third party extended warranties but it seems that once you pass the 36,000 mile mark ( 39,000 miles currently) it is extremely expense, $6500/3 yr. I love the car and would like to keep it, I just wish that someone knew how to rebuild the DCT. How has the reliability been so far?

battery-if its still working fine leave it oil-if its been 7500 miles since last diff-every 30k about tires-like battery change when needed easy to look at and judge brake pads-if they are at or below 3mm or so brake fluid-every year possibly 2 spark plugs-every 30-50k air filter-if original for sure get one you can clean and reuse PS fluid-every 30k wiper blades-when you need them

Great to hear the car is holding up fine. Your list seems pretty good to me. Might be worth letting dealership do DCT fluid change or try it yourself?

Every fluid on the car, every filter on the car, spark plugs.
Then perform a full inspection and check for worn/loose/torn/leaky/broken anything, replace/fix accordingly. Google bmw inspection check list, what comes up is a good starting point. |
