My N54 1M had a whole lot of recent maintenance at 129kms.

Some failures some preventative. Charge pipe (plastic) exploded which is a common problem. Replaced with Cobb metal pipe. CEL for injector failure (also common) dealer replaced all 6 injectors. Carbon cleaning done. Oil pan gasket leak. Gasket replaced and a bolt snapped which meant drilling and tapping and dropping the oil pan a second time.

Then all the regular maintenance such as spark plugs, brakes, tires, battery, air and cabin filters, all fluids.

Add in refinished wheels and both bumpers and around $17k has been spent on my 1M in the last year before my ownership.
