Just keep it running. Still only uses/leaks a liter of oil at 10,000 miles.
Need to replace both rear wheel bearings. I picked up two wheel carriers that I'm going to completely refurbish before tearing the car apart. |

Are you the original owner? If not, what mileage did you purchase it at? How many waterpumps, VCG, and OPG have you been through? Thanks for answering.

One waterpump... think it was around 190k (Think I hold the record on the board) One VCG and OFHG... 195k / 185k Haven't done the OPG yet. I've used BMW oil for every change except one near the beginning. |

I think waterpump at 190k is more impressive, this guy must live in the Arctic so his WP doesn't get much use. Also his OPG isn't even leaking yet, wtf?

That's probably what has attributed to the longevity. The whole car gets to operating temperatures and then stays there for a good amount of time. Short trips kills cars. Heat up, cool down, heat up, cool down...... |

Oh, it's seeping. Just not enough for me to spend 15 - 20 hours tearing the whole front out from under it while on blocks in my back yard. |

I'm not really sure. I do know that BMW took my wife's passenger seat bottom apart (sport seat) to replace the sensor and it took them less than two hours.

Since Effthreeoh is now banned (340k miles), I assume you have the highest mileage N52 on here?
