200$ Valve Cover Gasket replacement (Part and Labor)

e90mbition · 08-25-2015, 10:35 AM

Hey Guys, found this guy on Kijiji for those who need VCG replaced.

200$ is the best price I've seen, however he is in oshawa

Hope this helps some of you guys

Does he specialize in BMWs? Besides the price, how was the experience? Assuming you did get your car serviced there.

I am in the Durham region and would be good to know a local mechanic (that specializes in BMWs or German cars).

Thanks for your help in advance.

Says $200 for e46
$300 for e90

I don't know how confident I would be bringing it to a random from kijiji.

Leslie is a proper mech and expert on bimmers, and I think his pricing is very similar to that as well.

Worth the trip to Markham.

Thanks all. Agreed. I would only take my car to highly recommended mechanics.

Sounds decent if the guys is good. Just had mine done with a rear brake job for about $350 parts and labour. Btw my guy is a bmw tech who works on my car off the clock.

One of the recommended Indy's here charged me $320 labour for the full valve cover change. I supplied the parts.
