2010 BMW 328i
Asked by nsrlemonjello Sep 06, 2018 at 11:31 PM about the 2010 BMW 3 Series 328i Sedan RWD
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
My 2010 328i has 105,000 miles on it. It now needs a oil pan gasket and spark
plugs and possible other repairs that I don't yet know about. The service
manager at the dealership told me that now things will start going wrong and it
wouldn't be a bad idea to buy a new 330. Do I pay the repair costs (approx.
$1500+) and hope nothing else goes wrong, or do I trade it in for a new one?

First get a repair estimate from a top notch independent BMW shop. You will likely save a lot of money and they don't have a conflict of interest either.
Never changes you can make car payments or pay for repairs, I think the mileage is low for a beemer give it another Hundred thousand then consider replacement, unless you like that new car smell.
If BMW's are only a 100,000 mile car then buying a new one is going to cost you a lot. Ask the dealer if their cars are so crappy that you have to dump them at 100k!
Man, the salesman saw you coming from a mile away. I wouldn't trust a word out of their mouth. I'm with FOR, get a quote from an independent shop, these guys are taking you to the cleaners.
