Drove my 06 330i, 225,000 miles before I sold it and did all the work myself. Interestingly enough I didn't have a single failure until 170,000 miles when the ac compressor clutch exploded, while I was doing that job I did the water pump because it was hard to imagine it lasting much more than 170k . Stater failed at 200k. At 220k the plastic on the fuel pump under the rear seat cracked and caused a gasoline leak. That was my last repair. As far as I know the car is still going strong being driven 120 miles a day. I did all of the preventative maintenance by the book. If I wasn't a DIY guy no way could I have afforded the car during the last few years but I really enjoyed working on BMWs, they are very easy to work on.
