Hi every body, Happy Eid for all of you Shabab.
Im planning to upgrade from 3 series E46- to 5 series f10 Used (2011-2013) I've small family one daughter and another is coming Insha-Allah in the way:) , That's why Im planning to get a littel bigger Bmw like F10 528-530-535i, depends on the price and car options I get. I don't prefer to go lower in performance (523-520). 6 cylinder is my choice.
I've searched and read in many forum (US & UK) about some common problems in f10, but I want to know if we have experienced any problems with f10 models here in meddle east, specially after 100,000km (Transmission, engine, Turbo, Engine cooling sys etc...). As you know the hot weather here can make many problems that may not common in US or Europe. specially if you drive high mileage daily.
So Just need your help to know some answers that going to help me to decide:
1- Any common problem in these models specially after 100K ?
2- Do you think the reliability become better than previous model E60?
3- Do you recommend it for daily use?
4- Do you think the Naturally Aspirated like 528-530i is better reliability than 535i?
5- Do you recommend buying Japan imported F10? (even though they don't come with nice specs as Abu Dhabi specs. but they have low mileage and clean as new and may get in good price through Japan Auction)
Im not new in BMW world. I've owned 3 before since 2001, so hope that I got a nice experience in how to care and maintain. and I like to Do it my self if I can.
I hope not bother you with my bla bla bla:D , and thanks for your help.
