Big Maintenance Day
On Saturday I changed my oil, replaced my front rotors, and changed spark plugs. Everything went well thanks to the DIY threads on X5world.
I do the oil every 10K (Amsoil 5w-30). The rotors were pulsing at higher speed brake application. I went to Brembo's at $70 versus BMW's $140.
Spark plugs looked OK at 70K miles but I thought to change them to be safe. Total time: 5 hours, only had to swear once, dropped a socket to the bottom of the engine bay and needed to remove the cowl to find it.
