drummercakep 2 Report post Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) Just join this amazing group. I just bought BMW 218d last week and really love the car. plenty of room for carrying stuff and family as well. Since this is my first BMW and usually I use jap cars, so, I don't really know about BMW's maintenance, looking forward to learning from y'all guys.. cheers...

Olaf 3318 Report post Posted August 5, 2019 Welcome! if you’re not using a BMW dealer for service, do find a good reputable BMW Specialist. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
curryinahurry 39 Report post Posted August 5, 2019 Being a modern diesel, they're required to be fitted with a DPF (Diesel particulate filter) in the exhaust. These can be problematic if you mainly use the car for short trips. If you regularly drive it on long trips and allow the DPF to regenerate, they're all good. Otherwise you could be in for a hefty bill. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
