Get the Best Priced BMW 135i Parts

For BMW lovers, the 135i is a good pick. It's the top model of the coupe and convertible range that's available. However, it's not known for its longevity or low maintenance cost.

How to maintain your BMW 135i

The first task on your mind as a car owner should be proper maintenance and care of your car. It's essential that your vehicle receives regular checks to both increase its lifespan and catch any issues early. There are a few simple tasks involved in maintenance to promote your car's health inside and out.

• Regular oil changes
• Cabin air filter replacements
• Engine air filter replacements
• Windshield wiper swaps
• Tire pressure checks
• Leather care (if applicable)

Some of these tips are straightforward and obvious; everyone knows you need to change your oil regularly. However, there are a few other tips that tend to slip under the radar. One not mentioned above is the need to wash your car often. It's not just an aesthetic option: It's a necessity. If you live in an area with lots of birds or often park under a berry or other fruit-bearing tree, this is especially true. Bird poop, fruit juice and other substances can eat away at your clear coat and also your paint if they are not washed off. When cleaning your car, it's also advised to wash the door jams and the wheel wells. These are areas where dirt or gravel dust can build and collect moisture: This leads to rust.

To make maintenance easier for you, we here at PartsGeek.com recommend keeping spare replacement parts on hand. A good list to reference is the maintenance tasks listed above. When you take your car into the shop or dealership to have the oil changed or such, they charge you top market value for the supplies they use. Therefore, it's best to buy them from us at our wholesale prices and bring them to the shop with you. This can save you a hefty chunk of change over time.

Common 135i problems

The 135i isn't known for its dependability, but it's still a well-loved car by many. It has a few issues that many owners report, and the most prevalent problems commonly apply to the N54 engine, specifically.

First, the turbocharger can fail along with a wastegate rattle. Usually, this is caused by simple wear and tear on the engine. Running higher boost levels quickens how fast the failure occurs due to the increase in pressure. Symptoms of this issue are a rattling noise from the engine, loss of power, codes giving low engine boost errors and smoking exhaust. The fix is typically a full turbo replacement which is expensive from regular sources. We at PartsGeek.com, however, offer you these parts at wholesale prices.

Another common issue is a failing high-pressure fuel pump. This occurs mainly due to poor engineering, but usually, your warranty covers the repairs.
