200,000km Mark!
« on: May 18, 2006, 11:01:27 PM »
Well, my 91 318is has finally matured to the 200,000km mark, and i think she's just starting to warm up...

Im thinking of doing a tune up soon... What are some typical things I should be checking for??  What are some things that go wrong, or may need replacing?

Air and fuel filters, plugs and wires, check vacuum lines for cracks/dryrotting, perhaps clean the ICV.  This should get you started.  The best price that I found for the Bosch wires was $85 US at The Euro Depot.  They were priced up to $225 at other places.
