8 times $110 = a carton of beer
Ha ha..... $880 is still better than $3000
Plus eBay parts will be a hell of a lot cheaper than from BMW!

Hey guys just wondering if anyone in perth has a engine lock tool like this one http://www.promini.com/product_huge_ima ... 9sZy5qcGc= that they would be willing to lend or hire out? My old man has asked for help to do the timing chain on his r56 cooper. Bmw quoted $3000 to do it @ $220 per hour. a bit pricey I think. cheers rodney |

The job takes between 4-6 hours...Parts from bmw about $1000 (tensioner Guide rails & gears). I use a non genuine IWIS chain about $100( better than no name genuine) the other parts are genuine. Total cost at our shop is $1600.... We are only a couple of thousand K's from you so its cheaper to drive over than have it done at your local BMW dealer...HA |
