Lubrication Points E90 M3

Hello all,

I am creating this thread as my cars chassis is approaching 70k miles, Is there a tutorial or can someone give a basic layout of lubrication points to hit on the E90 M3? I am talking about bushings, joints, hoses, etc. that are recommended to be re greased or lubed on a periodic basis to maintain my beauty! Any help or information would be greatly appreciated! thanks gents.

Not really. You replace rather than rebuild/maintain.

It's my opinion that there are none.

Maybe sway bar bushings? But it's typically not a complaint. My car has 72k on it. Nothing needs lubrication, but I'm starting to look at refreshing the suspension.

None of the bushings or mounts are serviceable.

If you want to extend your throttle actuators life, lubricate all joints of the throttle linkages.

Make sure you use a dry film lube on the throttle linkages.
