I've recently bought a 2008 550i. At 108,000 miles. I was about to wash it up and do fluid changes for the first time After I screwed the expansion tank cap off. I noticed the "stick" didn't float up? I figured I was low but it isn't even movable? The stick looks stuck in the bottom of the tank...

I bought a 550i 2008 from the auction. Car only has 106k miles on it. You turn the car on gauges lights i drive and all comes on and works. Push button to crank and it doesn't do anything. Replaced ivm and valvetronic module due to the module being burnt on circuit board. Battery is working...

I’ve had my 2008 550i for about 8 months now, after the first month I sent it in the shop for some preventative maintenance and because my alternator went out. After that first month I’ve had to deal with limp mode and dtc malfunctions every single week. It keeps throwing up throttle position...

First off I'd like to say hello to everyone on the forum. I'm new here, and I am very interested in getting an e60 550i something around 06-08 probably, newer if I find a good deal. In any case I'm a college student, and I was wondering how reliable these cars are, especially once they start...

Hey guys, The patient: 2008 550i, Manual Transmission, 72,500 miles The Symptoms: The car threw a Low Coolant warning so I check the tank and sure enough it was low. At this point I was 85 miles from home so I figured it was a slow leak because we made the trip on Friday night. I topped it...

Hey guys i'm planning to buy my first car in June and have been some research but this is starting to drive me nuts. There is so many options with BMW and I cant choose a car. I have about 9-12 grand I can spend and have been mostly looking at the 2008 335i, 535i, and 550i. For the price i've...
