      That’s actually not that unusual. ‘Subject to inspection’. It’s a tricky area to be in because it sets expectations with the customer. Pulling back money for undisclosed issues/defects should have been the way forward from there. Mismatched Chinese there’s on the same axle would have set off alarm bells with me.

    Any car that comes in with ditch finders on there needs taking a closer look at. If they cut corners on tyres and they are the only thing keeping you in a straight line, they’ll bodge everything else. Looks like the typical can just about afford a half decent car, but couldn’t afford the maintenance.

    Water ingress on those. Sits in the sills on both rear sides. Easy to fix. Go under each rear sill and remove rubber plugs to drain. Basically water sits in and if left will overflow into the car. I agree though out to trade.

    The high pressure fuel pump is driven by the timing chain, which is at the back of the engine, realistically it is engine out to replace it and when you're in there the chain must be replaced, you could easily spend 600 to 1000quid depending on where the parts are bought....

    That customer knew exactly what he was doing, I have looked at a car without my car previously, had an estimated value and left a refundable deposit so that both parties can pull out of the deal does not suit when the p/x is valued.
    Unfortunately its a always a risk when taking in p/x, even your mechanic would not have picked up on the fuel rail issue from a drive.
    SOP in place to get all p/x driven by a mechanic is the way forward but how will that work on sats.

    Not that anyone here is interested but we have the same car, same interior, same white colour but fitted with the 3ltr 6 cylinder petrol engine. It's been with us for 7 years and it's never put a foot wrong. It's a car which is aging very gracefully and somehow still looks the part. Shifting Metal is like a meat grinder for this sort of car but to us private people we see them as a whole lot more. It's such a pity to see these cars slip down the order and become just things to trade on... but I suppose there's no avoiding it.

Unless you’re putting trade-ins straight to auction, where cosmetic condition/appearance is the most important factor, you need to assume anything you get offered is going to have issues and price accordingly…

    Still very sought after models being the LCi. Suspension shocks/struts on e92/93 is hard. Some folk can’t acclimatise to “the firm ride”. Worse with run-flats, especially Bridgestone Potenza RTF OEM tyres. Should’ve had air filter. As airflow measurements and fuel pressures are compared as part of the parameters checked on the fault code generated. Also exhaust pressure before and after turbo and DPF. A lot can be learned by watch live data whilst car driven. I’m sure it’ll be a good project for someone as prices have dropped heavy but not those with n57 engine though. May even be a qood breaker at the price it owes. Happy days… easy come! 🫣 That’s enough dribble from me, lm away to sleep currently the middle of the night for me.

    It’s not a hard fix , just a fuel pressure valve ,the guy who part ex it is the mug ,if actually took the time to work it out he would have spent less ,now he has spent more buying another car which would have had a good mark up .lol

    Take it slow on p exs, long test drive, scan, mechanic checking it out, you might be a pinta to customers, but better to be safe.

    My e91 was the biggest pile of steaming ****. Any BMW over 100K should be avoided like the plague.
