71k on mine and it's fine it's really solid car no issues.

Nice. Keep updating us. You’re probably the highest mileage car I’ve seen.

[Woodengun]

80k miles.

Getting a new battery now - $2100 out of pocket. Kinda sucks since that amortizes to $700/year.

Diff leaked but was covered under warranty. Around 40-50k miles since with no problems.

A/C leaked but was "fixed" by refilling with refrigerant.

Windshield needs replacing - maybe every 30k miles or so.

Punctured gas tank - no fault of BMW - just a freak accident.

Intake was inspected around 50k miles - no evidence of carbon build up. Yay!

Driver seat bolster takes a beating from me getting in/out a lot.

Crankcase valve can send oil into intake air. BMS catch can just added to prevent oil in intake air - probably a big issue with DI engine. I think I mistakenly diagnosed oil in intake pipe as leaky turbo seal but it is probably crankcase oil.

Sound system (HK) is crappy relative to other cars in this price range - wife's C63 is so much better.

Wish we could fit 335 rears.

Car is still lots of fun! Got a BM3 ready and Pure stage 2 going in once battery is replaced. Because 400 HP just isn't enough. :-)

52k. Never even brought into dealership for warranty work.
-Oil Changes
-Brake flush
-2x Brake pads (original rotor)
-2x spark plug
-DCT transmission Fluid

Has jb+ then alpine tune since 15k Miles. Been solid. Thinking about keeping it after my lease.

Great mileage and probably the highest on here.

2015 M3
67k
No Issues )

"knock on wood"

[trey100]

30k coming on 2 years.

Brought it in once when I was feeling too long of a delay when braking in the cold rain (sub freezing temps). They checked but nothing wrong they said.

Otherwise this car is really solid.

[TSTARKZ123]

There was a black M3 for sale not too long ago that had 109K miles. Wonder if someone on here picked it up.

2015, 52k miles here. Nothing but normal maintenance visits for me. No issues, no leaks, no codes, nothing. Seat shows a little wear. Steering wheel's leather has cracked a bit in places, that's about it for obvious wear. I've gone through the OEM MPSS's, one set of snows and nearly a second set of MPSS's.

[IM2C]

35,233. 2 years 5 months. Turning it in in 2 weeks.

[AJJ3]

Just crossed over into 68k miles, no issue yet. *knock on wood*
Currently have catless DP and stage 2 frank smith tune.

At what miles did someone changed the DCT fluid ( I plan on keeping this car for a long time), rear diff fluid?

[FC]

This is some pretty impressive reliability.

[NoMoreAudi]

450

$2100 for a battery? Why?

[KL07RPH]

20560 miles. ED pickup May 4 2015. (I know, I drive a lot )

[shortseller]

So impressed with the above list & information. Thanks guys & gals!

[captainaudio]

19,000 after 38 months. Turning it in at the end of the month,

[Bimmer6]

2015 9700 miles

[rottjr]

Purchased Aug 2014

9800 Miles
Garage Queen, still looks like I just drove it off the lot.

[CalaM4]

350kms. First tank of fuel... driven hard and put away shiny

No break-in. No issues.

[m4AY]

2015 m4. Bought it used at 62k, now it has 78000kms. And I too need the $2000 battery. I guess the previous owner had the transmission(dct) and the rear diff replaced twice. Not sure why, the dealer wouldn't tell me. I asked for a copy of the service records and they said no.
I had the 80k service done and now basically the warranty is gone. No leaks, no noises, love the car.

I would just go to another dealer and ask. It's not like they can just hide the service history, lol.
