First F11 Need Some Guidance Please
Hey
Just traded in my much loved F32 for an F11 and need some guidance on a couple of things. I knew the F32 inside out but I'm a total newb on 5 series and wagons. 1. I want to fit wheel spacers as I think they fill the arches out nicely. I had 15mm rear and 12mm front on the 32. Same offset on the F11 or do I need something different? 2. Boot spoiler? Is there an M Performance one that's nice? Is there something not too out there that works well with the standard one or on top of it? 3. If I decided to go with M Performance side skirts, are the F10 ones the same as the F11? They seem to be advertised as the same 4. Only got the car today and haven't had chance to look but is the rear twin tailpipe just a Y piece from a single pipe or is it two separate slip ons on two pipes? TIA |

1. The same spacers will fit. I usually run 12mm rears (and nothing in front) of mine, no issues.
2. No knowledge, sorry. 3. F10 & F11 side skirts are identical, yes. 4. There are a few different exhaust configs for the F11, and you don't say what model you have. Take a look on RealOEM.com, be armed with the last 7 digits of your VIN, and browse away! Welcome to F11 ownership by the way, they're great cars.

Sorry yeah, it's a 2.0d MSport manual. Wanted the 30 auto but couldn't find a nice one in my budget with how high used cars are recently. Thanks, I've used real OEM before so will take a look. Edit... code is 416 which is carbon black but it's got loads of blue in it. Is that correct? Also... anyone know which engine the 2.0d is in the F11 (2015) and how much oil it holds? Still ll04 5w 30 I'm guessing? Lastly... for now. The little chrome fillet panels on the front wings above the MSport badge... anyone know what they're called and can you find Gloss black replacements for them on eBay etc? I don't even know what to search for 😂 |

To OP, RealOEM with VIN, will help for engine identity as well. |
