Spark plug RM 489.54

wahlau eh... Assuming it's for the 3.0 X5. why so expensive for 6 sparkplugs? made of gold ah?
 
Yes, i am quite pissed off with the spark plug. They are using NGK, similiar to Super 4!
 
Oh MY GOD....the plugs are damn expensive...guess its a rip off from AB...I got it from Seong Hoe for 100 bucks for 4....comes with a 2 year warranty...;)

WAO..and they charge for whatever they change...darn...time for XC90 i guess?..hehe...

They're using NGK Iridium (whatever the heck that means!) which cost RM75 each. The Bosch platinums are half the price.

I got this T-shirt which bears a huge roundel which says BMW - Banyak Mahal Wheels and Burnt My Wallet. For a while, I wore this shirt often cos it told the story of my life... damn!! :beaten:
 
Is it all must change like disc and pulley ? Or owner desire ?

Never own new car ,so I don't know the "must" to keep warranty .
 
How come your car year 2004 have to change so many things? What about warranty

Inspection II also means the car would have passed 60,000 kms?? :eek:
 
wow , bro kawei , 7K for inspection II must be real pain.

When i got my car is was about 40K km , asked AB about inspection II and never really got an actual cost , just "we'll see what are needed to be changed but > RM4K" . and i am driving just the "old model" e36 328.
finally got it done at a BMW specialist for less than 2K using ori parts which also uses ori parts equiped with Modic as well.
but that was years ago , never tried AB's service . Is it better than those offered by bimmer specialist ?
:dunno:
 
I see- u travel quite a bit.

1 year 83k kms.

The consolation is that u r driving a good 4x4 !

Normally 4x4 cost about double of car cost; if that's of any help.

cheers
