Hi,
How much roughly do you think the following would cost on a 528i bmw?
repair of rust to rear spoiler (small amount)
Service interval 2 by BMW
New rear brakes
|
|
1 grand or more depending on what gets picked up in the service and the extent of the rust.
|
|
really? jeez...thats quite heavy - the rust is not serious, its only minor on the spoiler, the brakes are due for replacement too
|
the disks and pads - i dunno what else they usually do when it comes to changing it all at a service
oh yea, what do u reckon a service will cost? (number 2)
|
|
why dont you ask the dealer? there are fixed prices for servicing - and brakes usually.
|
Chris,
Are you also the owner of the 328i, the subject of a recent threadabout its value?

Ummm, isn't the rear spoiler made of some sort of thermoplastic concoction? Surely this wouldn't rust or am I being stoopid?

Hi,
Yea, we have the 328i. But have spotted a 528i for sale - its a 1998 S reg which seems quite good value but the rusting was worrying and it needs a lot doing to it i think - will avoid i think

Inspection 2 is the big one - about £330/350
Rust - you need a quote; no-one can guess over the net, but like Guy Lacey, I'd have thought the spoiler would have been plastic.
Brakes - Rear brakes and pads are about £75 from German and Swedish - probably more from the dealer.
But, frankly, why don't you just pick up the phone and ring the dealer - they'll be able to quote for straightforward items from a price list.
Regards
John
