E46 Part and Service Cost II

  • Click here to become an Official Member of BMW Club Malaysia Download Form
Serviced my 318I (2001) at BM Auto. Normal oil service.
Petronas syntium = RM198
Engine flush = RM 60 (apparently it is their std service)
Oil Filter = RM43.5 (I think a little on the high side, paid RM30 last year in another shop)
washer liquid = RM6.3
Microfilter = RM175.5 (i think cheaper from the spare part shop)
service (no modic) = RM 38
Total = RM522.9

the mechanic there tried to convince me accept using vacuum to suck out the engine oil instead of actually draining thro the drain plug. But i prefer good old method of draining. the internal of the oil pan is designed to slope towards the drain plug opening.

My previous oil service at FD Jaya in Old Klang Road cost me only RM346 - oil, filter, modic and nothing fancy. Maybe I will go back to old klang road for my next service.
 
Hi all...I need some advise from here...lately i encounter the ASC, HANDBREAK and ABS light on my dash...anyone have the fault before??? I was told the computer need to change

Any good workshop to recomend please?

My car is made 2002 facelift 318i 2.0 CKD. Do not ask me to send Auto Bavaria ...their service suck and cost a boom.

THANKS!

thanks for the info joeylow,

thank u guys.. tried to search on previous threads..do you the best workshop to go to in KL area that can do a good job in bmw E36 repairs?
 
had a few things done on my bmw 316ise manual 2001 today..
oil filter housing ring and gasket ( leaking before )..= 45
granshaft oil seal = 60
water pump ( original ) , first time changed since 2001 = 450
coolant = 30
labor charge = 150
total = rm 735
any comments on this guys ..?
next due service is not due for another 5000km , shall worry financially bout that later,
just a thought , will the market price be any different compared to an auto with the same make and year ?
also , how do i apply for becoming an official member ?
working in a hospital does not allow me the luxury of time to go for tt i'm afraid.although i very much like to.
the service was done at a local garage here , recommende by fellow beemers here in muar,.
 
I think it's not that expensive to maintain E46. Just do the normal schedule maintainance should do. But the thing that make it expensive is because of the wear and tear thing due to our climate. If you can stand driving in a UDM that having weard sound in the cockpit or the engine .... then should be cheap for you la.....me ...better go and change the thing and drive smoothly...
 
Today off..
so sent my car to MSpeed

Rear brake pads 140
front & rear sensors 80

Ah Meng said my brake booster, engine mounting giving way
 
E46 325i SMG

Problem/symptoms:
- Clutch slipping when moving from standstill position
- Lack of 'bite' when shifting through gears
- Jerky gear change during normal driving
- Clutch slips badly when using launch control.

Brand new clutch plate - RM2150
Gearbox mounting - RM50
Labor & reprogramming - RM350

Gear shifts very smoothly after changing parts. Less jerking while normal driving. Improved shifting in Sport mode. More responsive acceleration due to improved shifting. Feels like a semi-racing clutch. Pricey, but money well spent.

Hi Riezal,

Forumers & members,

I would to get some feedback from all of you. I'm going to send my car for servicing end of this week. How much it cost me if..............

a) Change engine oil (shell helix ultra) & oil filter (OEM)
b) ATF fluid
c) Fuel filter (If I’m not wrong) located at undercarriage
d) Labour cost

Appreciate all the sifu can provide me an estimate cost (so I can compare with the quote given by workshop)
