New owner with a few questions :-)

[bullet_p31]

HI All

I have had my F10 M5 for around a month now and done around 2K mile in it. I have had many cars including an E92M3 and a F80M3. Have to say the M5 is amazing and I ticks all the boxes for me and the family.

I am having a few things done to the car in the next month or so, ill post up when I have them done, and was just looking for some advise. I have ben searching round the forum and found the answer to most things but these are still outstanding.

-Looking at having the DCT serviced. Is there a service schedule for the DCT? any advise on anything I should have done as well (Ill be having Engine an Oil change)

-The car is on 30K and is a single owner 2016 car. What are peoples views on having the rod bearings done?

-Do people use Valve controllers for the exhaust system? I have a Milltek going on soon as well.

There is so much great information on this forum so if some of this is covered and I have missed it during my searching, please just link me to the posts.

Many thanks all

The manual says you need to change your DCT fluid around 45K miles. The fluid is supposed to be lifetime so go figure. I have a 2014 with 115k miles on the clock. I change mine every time I change spark plugs which is at 20k miles. I'm also tuned so that plays a role here as well.

As far as rod bearings go. Just change your oil every 7500 miles using a 0W/40 or 5W/40 premium brand. The bearings will love the new oil trust me.

Good luck on your search.
