[QUOTE="2wenty6, post: 729711, member: 20205"] I don't think the M54 is going to cost a whole lot more in maintenance compared to the M43. Since you're a capable mechanic, you can pretty much DIY, there are plenty of material and step by step guide online in US forums. With that being said, if you go with the 6cyl (2.5,2.8 or 3.0) the power difference is night and day with the M43. I've experienced both and I would never consider the M43. From personal experience, the engine is probably one of the more robust part on these cars. If worrying about maintenance I'd be more worried about other parts. Good luck with your hunt! [/QUOTE]
