2016 328i. Original battery still alive and kicking!
Reviews of spare parts for BMW
The battery on my previous F20 lasted over 12 years before I replaced it last winter. Had enough voltage but bad resistance readings, mechanic advised me to change it for the winter.
Using Meyle m3 control arms has almost been a year with them and no problems
I’m just over 10-years on my ‘15 M235i.
I got 12 years out of the original battery on my E90.
I stick with yuasa (equipped from the factory). Thankfully the yuasa lasts long, 5+ years.
the meyle arms I installed are good so far.
The factory Sachs struts are also pretty good. Not sure if the M-Sport got different shocks from the regular sport, but all that's left anymore from Sachs are sport struts. Unfortunately for those of us without the sport package it makes shock replacement a pain, since their resting position is shorter than stock, and makes them shorter than the spring. I never want to do that repair ever again.
The timing chain broke at 185k km(115k miles) while driving and had to rebuild the engine since it messed up many things.
The gas mileage sucks and you need a warranty because the transfer case will fail and cost more than an exclusionary warranty
