i think its cos they are owned by bmw mark so they charge bmw prices mate take it to a reputable non main dealer

mark I worked for bmw for a while its a common problem

but the sump gasket is more common

dont attempt to do it on the drive,you have to drop the subframe with steering rack ect ect still attached

it aint a quick fix lying on your back job

as said take else where,and dont forget all main dealers charge book time,so if it says 4hrs to do the job and it only takes 3 you still get charged 4hrs

and us poor sods who have to work in the back get know where near the £70 to £100 an hour rate they charge

leave the bike till your right mate,I dropped the b6 in back garden

trying to do something while not been fit
will have a look in shed,might have a casing but cant promise

welcome

Hi all back off me jollys had a great first week

and a not so good second week got a txt to ring home the second week

To hear my lad had been involved in collision,on his push bike with a 4x4 but was told to stay put and not worry as his injurys werent life threatening

easier said than done,the little sod pulled out of a t jct straight into the path of a 4x4 doing 30mph

so got home this morning dropped cases off straight to see him,one very lucky little boy fractured leg is the worse injury

all other injurys are cuts/bruises/grazes to every part of his body and cant remember fully what happend

so a very unsettled second week in zante

main thing is he will be ok

Turbo

Im not tyrd to get the mrs to work,but she was haveing none of it,cant think why

tell ya 9pm cant come quick enough

post pics when I get back,do you want pool view or beach view pics

absolute first class

nice one stue
