Cost to Maintain an M235i

Hey guys,

I am currently in the market for used M235i 8AT (2015-2016) and am trying to do a little additional research as to what to expect from ownership (assuming the car is out of it's maintenance plan). I've been reading most of the forum trying to gauge yearly maintenance costs and overall areas that seem to give M235i owners a headache.

Aside from the obvious oil change, what are the main intervals for these cars regarding other fluid replacement, spark plugs, battery life and anything else related to these cars (had a 135i, but I'm not as familiar with the 2 series). I often drive with spirit, but nothing too aggressive and will not be tracking the car.

Also, have there been any known issues with pesky parts? Water pumps? Fans? Rattles? Other known issues that require repair?

As far as I know, the N55 engine is pretty rock solid, so less of a concern there.

Thanks in advance!
