    Hi Dan -- Having a 599, I thought they were supposed to be relatively maintenance free. But the one in your posts has the same a/c issues as my previous 550 and the leaking steering rack is quite a surprise. And are you removing the valve covers due to leakage? What are your thoughts? Feel free to respond to me directly. Thanks, Frank

    Yeah this car has leaking valve covers, steering rack, and A/C compressor. I don't know the miles off hand but all cars will leak if they have limited use over a few years. My 2013 m3 needs valve cover gaskets now and only has 6k miles on it.

    You show 12 plugs but six of them are old ones. Is it not a V12 or am I missing something?
    Also, that is a lot of new parts required on a relatively new vehicle. Why so much needs doing?

    Did the buyer know of these problems before the sale. I bet his bill is not going to be small; proof that a good PPI is always worth the money...

    Comparison shot.

    Mostly from sitting and some overlooked issues.
