Axle replacement

That’s my thought as well. Don’t get me wrong I like to wrench, but this car has just bet me up the past 3yrs. Plus the hrs I put in at work don’t help. I know labor is a killer at dealerships. I’m glad I don’t still live in nyc for that one fact.

I understand completely. Also I damn near fainted when the local BMW dealer told me that they charge $175 per hour. After I regained myself I walked out laughing historically!

I would have too. Last time I went to the dealer back it 2012 it was $135 I think

WOW that sucks. When the big breaker bar snaps. It might be a good time to call it a day. I cant blame you for considing the paying to have it replaced option.

Yea it will probably be and up hill battle and I’m not up for that this week.

Well $360 for both axles and 4 wheel alignment. Not horrible, I just wish it and went towards something else. I guess I’ll change my snub mount again and put in carrier inserts before the weekend.

Well an update.

I can’t make this up. I get home 2hrs later and I find a big dent in my door. I drive back to them and as soon as I get off the highway, my lower control arm unhooks from the spindle inside the wheel. 2 blocks from the shop. Mind you all of this is on the same side of the car they worked on.

holy shit. raise some hell

I think something in me broke because I was numb and calm-ish. Truth I was trying not to get arrested. Lucky This isn’t the 20’s me. service manager admitted to me they over looked the washer. He was like I can give you a oil change for ur trouble. I was like get the fuck outta here. I was told I would get a call tomorrow since all of this happened 30min before closing.
