common issues with e90 330i

I'm off to look at a 2007 BMW 330i saloon with a colleague this weekend for him, are there any known issues with them he should look out for?

Its a 2 owner 90k miles from new, just wondering if theres anything that is common to fail on them?

Check the indicators, they don't get used much... Whistle Whistle

May be worth a good furtle on the interweb, try these below for starters - two friends have had these, they were quite reliable. Hope this helps. Thumbs Up

BMW did a recall a short time ago when this happened to a BMW driver who used the R.H. Indicator for the first time.

Try asking on M3Cutters forum, someone will be able to help. IIRC these engines have the cam drive at the rear and can suffer failures. It's a bit like the turbos on 3.6 TdV8's, it's not a given but it can happen. Drives:
