Looking at 2016 BMW X1 with 42k miles
Hello Everyone! First Post!
Going to pick up a used 2016 BMW X1 from Carvana this Friday and I am beyond excited. This will be my first BMW and first luxury vehicle. I've been looking everywhere trying to gather what I might be in for since I see people always commenting on the cost of ownership and reliability. From what I see this vehicle has actually scored and reviewed pretty well in it's class and in general. I was wondering if anyone had some advice, or what to expect from this BMW at this age and miles. I want to do right and take care of it, so it can last a long time and bring joy to my Fiancé and I for years to come. Seeing all the pictures and enthusiasm on this forum makes me even more excited. TLDR: What can someone expect with a used 2016 BMW X1 with 42k miles Thanks, Drew |

Congrats and good luck! I would say just read around and see how your car behaves.. it's all unknown what luck you have or how the previous owner treated it. In general things will be very nice, but once problems creep up, deal with it.. and hopefully you have a competent mechanic at hand. First rule is: Scan for codes, not just read out what the car says. We have a '16 with a little more miles than that since new, and we've had absolutely no problems at all.

i purchased a '16 with 27k about 15-16 months ago. i'm only at 38k but I had a bad eac sensor which required an entire radiator replacement but that is just bad luck - not a common issue.
besides that - the usual brake pads, brake fluid flush, oil changes, & tire rotation. No other issues! This was my first BMW, too, and veeeeeery happy! Enjoy! |
