Mileage Poll

[MTiz]

Bought it 1 year and 1 month ago with 143k on it. Now at 156k and I'm not slowing down.

I agree but after the poll was started I couldn't change it.
My apologies for not getting it right this time around.

No worries, all good. ✌🏻

Seems a rather random range of interval choices going from 50,000/35,000/25,000/infinite.
Personally I would have at least included 150k and 200k mileages.

Im trying to get an idea on where everyones at as far a mileage goes. If anyone has anything to add to the poll please let me know.

121k. The only issue the engine ever gave me in 10 years of ownership was a cracked VANOs exhaust hub.

Knock on wood.

That's how my first M3 was but one rainy night, a slight bump to a pole ended it all. My current one has been a high maintenance turd, as in I've replaced the engine. Low mileage does not always mean better.

Obioban 210k on wagon chassis but how many on the motor?

209,000 on the drivertrain (it's not just a motor swap )-- donor car had 1000 miles less than the donor chassis.

[Obioban]

Almost 210,000 on the wagon, ~160,000 on the coupe... though 20,000+ of those are on track, which people say counts 10x... so it's at 340,000 miles by that math

It would be fun to do a “forum census” where people can answer a bunch of questions in a survey form and put some interesting statistics together.

Oh thats a great idea but above my pay grade lol

[DoubleSidedTape]

maw1124 No science behind it lol I just threw it together as I am really curious about the percentage of us that are over the 110k. But I should've kept going. We can do it again in a year or so.

At least you got up and actually did something about it, so hats off to you. I still have the old school Autotrader filters in my head...

😂🤣🍻

I allowed multiple choices for those guys that have more than one But if you do have more than one please let us now in the comments with the mileage also.

Thank you.

Was there any science behind the intervals? I notice they're not even (50/100/150, 45/90/135, 60/120/180) and just wondered how you arrived with declining intervals.

You were reading my mind with the question, BTW.
