Daniel 36 Report post Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) Regretfully, my e46 330i is now for sale. I have owned it since late January 2021. The vehicle does need work. I do not currently have the time or resources to restore it as I'd intended when I bought it, hence the reason for the sale. Located in Wellington. Details: NZ New M Sport 181,xxx kms (will increase) 4 owners excluding dealers Black Sapphire Metallic Automatic Pros: New Bridgestone RE003s on the rear at 173,419 km (and alignment) Cooling system renewal @ 176,xxx km (I can create a full list of components if desired - includes radiator, expansion tank, waterpump, fan, etc) New PCV valve kit @ 176,xxx km WOF until August 2022 and Registration til January 2022 New front brake discs and pads @ 181,xxx km Service just done at 181,790 km using Penrite HPR5 I have receipts for all of my work, and bits and pieces from previous owners. Cons: LF & RR wheels bent (although not picked up during WOF) Has stalled 2 times in my ownership (only), throws code for camshaft position sensor inlet Needs new power steering pulley Guibo/prop shaft donut starting to perish Air con blower motor slow - works perfectly but is a little noisy (unsure of root cause) Handbrake could be tightened a bit Main idler and tensioner bearings noisy Air intake top hose should be replaced Power steering and brake fluid dark Front seat belts slow to retract Needs new wheel bearing, though not urgently (left rear) Speakers should be replaced Right front window could do with a new regulator Cosmetic Issues: Needs new cup holder Missing fog light surrounds Sagging headliner (I would do pillars at the same time) Faded rear tray carpet Bit of a gouge in the interior of driver door Panels and paint are in above average condition considering age and mileage. There is a scratch on the outside and some stone chipping. I imagine a professional cut and polish would have it looking superb. While the cons does read like a long list, most of the issues are relatively simple and inexpensive fixes. All of the known issues have been listed above. You won't find any deceit here. Based on current values, and pros and cons of this example, I am asking for $5,500 firm. Between 80 and 90% of my mileage has been highway driving. I have run her exclusively on BP 98. Genuine BMW blue coolant used. Comprehensive renewal of the cooling system done. Questions welcome.
