100k miles, what should i do?

Hey fam! So, i got my 2013 35i at around 70k miles, I’ve driven 30k over the last three years with almost zero problems and still drives like a dream to this day. Only issue i encountered was a cracked coolant reservoir, easy fix.

Was just curious, what if anything, should i do to it as i approach this mile marker to ensure it’s reliability and efficiency for another 50k miles?

Many thanks

Change every single fluid you have (transmission, transfer case, front and rear diffs especially) and it will be good for another 100k+ miles. Lots of guides up here on how to do it for every fluid.

Get new spark plugs and coils.

Oh and if your oil filter housing gasket leaks and you need to replace it, make sure to follow the BMW technical bulletin on updated procedure or risk ruining your engine (basically pulling the fuel pump fuse and cranking it several times 10 seconds on, 30 seconds off to prime oil pump. My memory is a bit fuzzy on it though so read the bulletin to be sure).

+1 for replace all fluids , and now you must start to replace automatic transmission fluid on EVERY 60k km.
