[QUOTE="ozzy888, post: 402011, member: 16491"] One year later, i had my gearbox overhauled, cost 8k for overhaul another 4k for "body valve" , don't know what that is but still have to pay anyway, including the mountings, and extras, all amounting to 14k....14k for the chinese new year this year..I did not want to have a replacement gearbox because i would not know the condition ... an overhauled gearbox is as good as a new one, correct ? the replaced gearbox failed after 6 months .no more warranty ... It seems the gear box issue is common among E65 owners... On top of that i have the CAS module channged for 3k last year due to remote key cannot activate the remote boot ... on top of that some oil leaks, and minor repairs and oil change ,etc. Tyre change , etc.. I have already spent more than 20k on this babe.. but no regrets.... hope that there will be no more big expensive repairs later this year... cheers to all ... [/QUOTE]
