@@sizwentanzi2610 watch still works and looks great but strap quality could be much better. One loop broke and creases easily, plus strap is little too thick so easy to crease and hard to wear if wearing frequently. Just get spare straps and you should be good. I do still wear it occasionally and love it!

such nice cars. I wish you had started it in the video to hear the motor. it's clean for $5k so you should daily drive it until the timing chain guides play the death rattle tune.

@@cullenburns5733 Hey, thanks for watching and commenting! You do have a point when comparing all model years of LR3 and LR4, however 2013 is one of the ideal model years to get in the LR4 because of resolved timing chain tensioner issue and last year of 5.0L V8 before engine switch. But fair point.

Your upper and lower control arm bushings should be reset so the bushings are not preloaded. You should loosen the bolts and retighten when the vehicle has its full load on the tires.

Hopefully you got to grow up & realize how stupid this is. This dumps exhaust right under the passenger compartment. CO poisoning probably killed a few brain cells. Did you melt the under carriage or suspension at WOT with flame when the program goes into ENRICH? You never noticed the bluing of the metal along the exhaust pipes?

Only had a boost leak that was fixed with a simple small rubber pipe replacement and no issues since then. Love this car.

I have a 2007 e92 335i. I would recommend this car for anyone who loves cars, it’s literally a drivers car that’s the best way to describe it. Super fun to drive, sounds amazing and checks all the boxes. Although I will say maintenance is extremely important and the turbo wastegates start to rattle and eventually won’t hold boost!! It’s an easy (temporary) fix with washers and tightening the wastegate rod. I replaced everything you mentioned in this video and I did everything myself including wastegate rattle fix, this is my first car I owned and I haven’t been to a mechanic shop. I’m in love with this car lol.
