the lesson here is..even this ppl so called specialist, dont trust this monkeys..better to have honest mechanic then so called speciallist..maybe u should ask around which mechanic around ur area can be trust among our members here..

me in penang island..
 
Like I've always said, don't trust the mechanic 100%. Do some research online ourselves too :)
 
luckily my 530 doesn't have this problem (yet anyway! touch wood!). But my E46 325i did. Reprogram made the problem go away for a while, but in the end, turned out to be gearbox failure. So hopefully yours is due to software. But if it comes back, chances are it's hardware so prepare for OUCH$$$$$

Hi Gordon,
is ur car CKD? I was quoted by AB labor rate of RM20 per minutes for recon unit. I think they r not keen to do recon unit though.
Mines is japan spec msport so far tip top condition. Anyone know their rate are standard nation-wide??
 
When they know your car is recon , they will not layan or at least tekan the price till you run far far away - the truth is they are not keen on re-cond unit . Unless you have insider.

I had experienced it in Sg Besi Auto Bavaria , which the salesguy at the desk was looking at computer monitor while talking to me .Thank god i was sober.
 
AB? Yeah, in my case they quoted me battery, brake pads and steering switch cluster for excessive white smoke emission... And mine is not even recon car.
