oh and for you guys breaking lock nuts, not sure if you can do this with bmw wheel bolts but it's worth a try.
i did this on my friends integra. just grab a shitty socket slightly bigger than the lug, heat that fucker up on the stove (i used a propane torch) hold it by the extention and hammer that bitch on and let it cool. lug nut cranked right off. I did that. I used a 12 point socket instead of the usual 6 point. Made it a bit easier. One socket, one hammer and a breaker bar and off came the lock nut. Makes you wonder why we bother with those damn things since it's so easy to remove them without the key.
it's true. i always wondered if that gator socket thing would just take them right off.

yo titty - 1800 for an s30!!! That's crazy. How long ago was this? These things kept jumping up in price...and it hasn't stopped!
i know right? this was back in the day, about 2006/7. my mom had just bought her 05 rav 4 brand new and i took it back for an oil change and saw it on the lawn. it was in fantastic condition, no rust, all trim, no rips or anything on the interior...fuck i should have bought that but poor teenager.

What year X3? These guys are just mentioning regular German maintenance items lol. Still have to deal with all the oil leaks (valve cover/tranny pan/oil filter housing/crankcase vent valve/axle seals) and even broken coil springs in the rear (depending on year).

I just had to do an axle seal earlier this year, luckily I caught it before the front diff was empty. There is no sensor in the diff for low fluid
