Bout to crack 200k on my e39 540iT/6 and there is nothing newer that interests me so… we’ll keep doing the maintenance.
I have a Dynavin headunit the PO installed. It bugs me to no end I can’t set my date and time or reset fuel economy. Will be hitting the same milestone imminently tho, she drives like an absolute dream.
hahahahaha no. They pollute quite a bit more, especially since that’s pre-stricter emissions standards that came into effect here in 2006.
Diesels have disproportionate impacts on local air quality too, a major driver of asthma and respiratory illnesses.
FWIW I’ve owned all generations of small VW diesels since MY2001. Most recently had a Touraeg that was unfixable for emissions.
Empirical evidence of absolute shite build quality. Love it.
The Forrester absolutely crushes it with parents, outdoorsy folks, and people who deal with winter and may live in the middle of nowhere. ICE is still king for many.
Garbage take, sorry!
They charge handsomely for their cloud services accounts though.
