Newbie Z4 owner - 2006 3.0si
Just wanted to say hello. After a number of weeks of searching and many test drives, I purchased a 2006 Z4 3.0si from a local independent dealer.
The car has more mileage than I wanted, 90K.....but it was a well documented one-owner, at least from the carfax report.
I had the local BMW dealer inspect the car before purchasing. I was told the only fault they found were worn FCA bushings.
The car looks great, but of course there are a number of items it needs, or at least I want.
First thing first is the bushings. Is it recommended that I replace the FCA when changing the bushings? I have been reading numerous postings on this subject. If I do not track the car, and use it as a pleasure car, is it recommended to stick with OEM, swap with Meyle or go to Powerflex?
It was serviced recently, but is there anything, at 90K, I should been looking for? Bearings?....additional bushings?
The tires were just put on before the sale.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Anyone in the Bay Area?.....any Bimmer clubs?
