Hi i just want to highlight that sometimes when one supplier give you a good price it doesnt mean that he has the best price for everything. So you need to call up everyone. Gurus like Wingzee, Anak Sarawak and Iceduke are some of the gang i consult about approximate price so that i can negotiate with the suppliers (sorry i miss mentioning some of our other gurus who helped me).
I bought the radiator just last week from Bomin - please specify you want Behr (advice from gurus and also i tried a taiwanese radiator before and it lasted less than 1 year)
Other suppliers to call up are CSS auto, Munich auto or BA. Also check with those gurus.
Bomin has one more unit of Behr if i am not wrong - i had to wait 2 weeks for the Behr becoz they were all pushing another brand

Went to change my radiator @ bomin but no luck, Behr was out of stock, so I just buy whatever in stock, can't even remember the brand name. Bought it for RM550. Changed it yesterday, drive about 300km, found out water level drop a lot, refilled, monitoring the water level now. Hope no more leaking, just need to topup once bcoz it wasn't completely filled before.....

How come u can get BEHR, when I ask when they re replenishing the stock, they said not gonna restock soon. I guess they re just pushing their existing stock. This is not good. I even paid more than RM440, RM550 to be exact, for a brand that even the guy in the counter can't pronounce.
Sigh..

*assuming your BERH is a typo of BEHR

Sorry for coming in here late. I have just added a younger brother (E46 318i 1.9) for my E39 523i.

I am surprised that within 1.5 years you have changed so many parts of the E46; some major items were changed more than twice within that period - absorbers and lower control arms for example.

These are list of part prices which I have compiled throughout the 1.5yrs of my ownership of the E46. Some parts may only be applicable for M54B25 and might subject to change by stockist. Hope this will be helpful to all E46 owners & more will contribute to the E46 community.
