| Apr 201771000 mi | Replaced top and bottom oil filter gaskets and thrust bearings. Gaskets were leaking oil, thrust bearings were worn.

New note on 8/1/2018==> Oil smell mentioned before has disappeared. It must've been residual oil which is now evaporated. This car, despite all the negative comments on 2009 750s on the Internet, has been a great car for me. It burns no oil, and other than the oil seals that were replaced, has had essentially no maintenance other than oil changes. It's still a joy to drive this car. It's a highway cruising king! | ||
