Bdc101 is on a distinguished road
I wouldn't ever buy Bosch again. I did that on my E53 and it lasted around 17k miles before it failed.


I was actually just thinking of this for my E70 though. I'm big on preventative maintenance and I think mine is original at around 146k miles. What would you guys go with if you were going to replace it? I am actually going to do belts soon so I could do this at the same time.
