I've been driving mine daily in MA since 2014 when I bought it and I just hit 154,000 miles. I've done the actuators, brakes and a couple wheel bearings and wheel speed sensors but that's it aside from regular oil changes, Diff and DCT fluid.

Non-issue: 65k miles - no issues with bearings (but I never cold revved it, always used proper oil, always warmed it up before going full out, not driven in winter weather) My seating position seems fine (seat adjustments?) - also have a 911 Turbo S (which is lower) ... perhaps I need to check again :) Squeaks, rattles and buzz ... NOTHING! Issues: Coolant expander tank started to leak (the seams failed on the plastic weld). Servo hose clips ... said good-bye after a drift session (most likely pressure due to constant max steering and back-forth Soft-plastic around steering wheel buttons ... love the feel, hate the falling off Micro switches on the paddle shifters (assuming), don't change gears (up or down) ...bit nervous messing with it due to air-bag ($1,500 estimate to repair) ESC button(s) ... old-back-clip broke so button keep falling off ($1,500 repair estimate - $150 replacement part)

[@Bobcat9]

Bro, manual for life. You were wrong to prefer the automatic based on feelings. 1. Clutch+throttle is superior to automatic in mitigating slides, whether intended or not. A manual+RWD gives more control than any auto+RWD in low-traction conditions. 2. Automatics just go fast, that's all they can do. Buy an automatic if that's what you need. 3. Any BMW manual transmission will be easier, cheaper to repair, while also being far more mechanically reliable. Automatics are fundamentally and definitively more complex and have quantity more points of failure than any manual anywhere. CVTs are a really really good reason to buy a manual. I don't mean to diminish your 'feelings' and how that leans your preferences and proclivities. I just mean to check those feelings in favor of an objective, not feelings-based argument for manuals for life. And just to include my credentials, I have a Class A license and driven many trucks+trailers both auto and manual, some with as many as 48 tires. I've driven every terrain, in an enormous myriad of vehicles across over 2 million documents miles. I also operate heavy construction equipment, bulldozers have clutches manuals, graders have a clutched manual, plus all kinds of tractors. I also lived in Germany for 5 years and had quite a lot of experience in the all-new for 2006 3-series, diesels, petrol, and my boss got a new 2009 M3 that year, drove him home from the bar in it many times. Manual. Manuals for life dude. They're mechanically, reliably, functionally, fundamentally superior to modern (post-2000) automatic transmissions. Say no to automatics, unless you're chasing 10ths. Every other use of a fast car is better with a manual. It's not really driving if your only control over the transmission is throttle on the engine and brakes on the wheels.

[@CH-159]

little trick to fixing your brake pad wear sensor. cut the sensor head off and connect the 2 exposed wires. The way the sensor works is as the head of the sensor wears away, the connection of the connected wired behind the head slowly degrades which tells your car how long before the next service is. If you just cut away or take off the sensor then the car will think you have no brakes left as the sensor is completely worn out. Trick it by just twisting the 2 wires together, put a bit of electrical tape over them and zip tie them somewhere in the wheel well. Never worry about brake pad wear sensors again :)

I love my E92 M3 but I don't daily drive it. I keep it as my fun car so I can appreciate it every time I jump in :).

If you jump the brake pads sensor wires, it completes the circuit - which gets rid of the light.

Yup but will need to be unplugged still. That only helps if it’s yellow light. Red light is hard coded no reset after 50k miles without changing them

Epic car. For me its great for everyday use also. On 18'' wheels its very comfortable and looks perfect to me (bmw 220 rims). The torque on low rpms is more than anough for public roads. In accelerates better on 7th gear pull than my f36 428i which is a quite fast everyday car. On the highway cruising (140 - 150kmh) it takes 12,5l/100km, so it gives about 480km of range - not bad. Another great thing is that on standard exhaust is quiet and comfortable while cruising, but starts to scream beautifully and loud enough just when you want it.

I had replaced the stock shift knob on my e92 m3 and retrofitted a f8x m performance shift knob and that made shifting much more enjoyable. The difference a weighted shift knob makes in shift feel is night and day.

even I have a weighted shift knob in my 04 corolla. literally night and day
