E46 Part and Service Cost II

[anaksarawak]

Ya sifu, it come with original HID, auto leveling..etc....
sorry for very last 2 questions....
just wonder how is Eagle Eye quality compare with Original headlight?
If after some years, I want to change the headlight lens, Is the original E46 headlight lens fit on Eagle Eye?

Dont la call me sifu.. Ori are of better quality and wont turn yellow after a few years. Also its easier to tell the officer at JPJ roadblock that yours are original not retrofitted. If possible nego to RM1200 la since you can mod the projector lamp for RM700 now.

Changed both belt Tensioner of mine E46 M43B19 during the last weekend...resolved the annoying squeaky sound
Part = RM185 x 2
Labor = RM80

I found a pair of E46 original Xenon light (used)...quoted RM1600..condition = half cut....is that a good price?

RM1.6k for everything inclusive (ie. holder, wiring, levelling motor/sensor etc.) I would say it's a good buy. I was quoted around RM2.5k the last I asked.

However, I would say the light throw of the original Xenon is not impressive. An upgrade to FX-R projectors like what bro aidilj would yield good results.

Gearbox Bracket - RM280

The rear wheel bearing is done earlier, quite surprised to see the difference in the price for front n rear... But both are not similar, maybe that s why.. Now no more annoying sound from the wheel.

Bro Wingzee, so no more leaking, solved d? seems like a good deal there, the pricing (labor) looks reasonable, considering the works needed.

Hi bro, gotta run in few days and monitor first. Hopefully it solves the problem. Normally the original oil seal should last about 80-100k km if the job is done properly.

i think my repair will cost more, coz almost all 'leakable' parts are leaking.lol. my engine is leaking at the top gasket as well..

Valve cover gasket you mean? OEM German brands like Victor Reinz, Febi or Elring Klinger is only about RM100++ (can't remember the exact number). It's the labor which may cost more.

Yea, i guess so. I even got quoted for top overhaul, but it costs a lot..would definitely consider a top overhaul if the cost is comparable...

Bro Wingzee,
The Gearbox mounting, is it the two rubbers that hold the gearbox, screwed to the gearbox bracket? I got mine for rm65 each, if it s the same thing, then it s not good for me, and need to reconsider my parts source. Hope it s different thing.
