"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

My 10 year old X5 has been fine so far, feeling pretty lucky. Minor leak from the T Case I will probably fix soon, and replaced the front brake pads myself for $68 with Bosch ones. Other than that the regular things like wipers, oil change.
It’s really hit and miss with them it seems.
I've owned a few german cars now. My anecdotal experience is the maintenance bills rapidly accelerate around the 100k mark. My S4 was falling apart at 120k.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Then again, the transmission and diff were replaced under warranty on my GLA45 at ~25k km. It would've cost ~$15k out of pocket if I reported the issue 3 weeks later after warranty was up.
I guess german cars are just garbage across the board, nvm. Killy is right. When the warranty is up. I'm living on borrowed time with my M2 haha.
