Just a quick question on the life expectancy of the consumable parts on the e90.

Suspension, brakes and engine belts

Thanks

    My miles are just about to tick over to 70k I have done about 5k in it since getting it in late June so I think I'll be about an average miler I'm not a mad driver. Most of my miles are not motorway but are mainly city roads. It's a 320D.

    Prob a good time to think about belts. Brakes will be checked at mot time as well as suspension.
