assessing potential purchase 2015 535i

Hi guys! I’m overdue for a new ride and am pretty sure it’ll be an f10

I’m looking at this private party 2015 535i listed for $16k

2 owners
~80k miles
M sport
HK sound
Driver assistance pkg
Napa leather

Has some dings on the front bumper that the seller claims he got quoted ~$750 to repair.

seems like oil change frequency varies, mostly every 10k but a couple intervals where car went 11-13k miles before a change

Seller also gave me this info:

“There is an electrical issue with oil sensor and dealership was quoting $400 just to debug the issue. So I thought it was time to start going to some non dealership mechanic. They did replace the sensor but it did not reset the mileage reminder, next debugging is related to wiring but recommendation was since car is driving fine it’s something you can decide if it’s worth spending money.”

Have you guys heard of this problem before? I am a little wary of any kind of “wiring issue”

Is it something that should show up on a code reader? I’ve got the creator c310.

Is a few oil changes stretched to 12-13k miles something to shy away from?

Thanks guys

Jared
