I have a 2007 bmw 335i coupe, with the ZF 6 speed auto trans. I have 55k km on the car and want someone to change the transmission and differential fluid.

I was going to do this myself, at my...

I have a set of springs from a 2001 BMW 325CI.

They are the original springs that came with the car. The car, when new, was lowered, before leaving the dealership. Therefore, these springs have...

No - you can't get a recall from a US dealer. RIV won't accept it. Read the Transport Canada list of importable cars. The letter must be from a Canadian dealer who will then fax the letter to RIV on...

3200$ for an E92? Wow.

I understand they need to change the cluster for 1500$. What else is required?

400$ to turn on DRL's for the E46? What a joke. It takes them about 20 minutes to do it...

Where do I even start. I'll try to keep this short. Stay away and if you do get some service done go over the bill in fine detail - and I mean detail. Thats the first of many problems we had... I'm...

They didn't mention this when i brought my E92 over... This new cluster swap idea was just done around November ~26th along with the new clearance letter.

Also, it's not the cluster... it's the...

Paying the 850$ to BMW Canada for permission letters to import/register plus anything else they demand to be changed over prior to releasing the recall letter.... such as a new cluster which by law...

Send your money where it's appreciated. RX350/330 is nice too.

yeah we bought a lexus gx470 instead of the X3. they issue free recall letters and don't scam you for DRL's. we wanted the x3 but we're not supporting bmw canada any longer.

I wonder if they'll just adjust the buyout price (to the upside). Still does nothing to help those who are financing or paying cash.

I think I saw 1.9% in the US recently AND bmw makes your first...

I'll go with Rob from Tunerworks and recommend the Dunlop Winter Sport M3.

One mistake I made was slightly upsizing the sidewall and it made the handling a bit soft.

First you have to compare identical tires/rims etc.

I saved over 50% with Tirerack. Even 1010tires was not close and they were trying to sell me SportEdition rims which are poor quality.

Please let us know what company this is. Second, call the manager of the shop.

Some of us can afford nicer things since we shop around - and we have the right to do so.

Got my letter - just shy of two weeks.

bituerbo Wrong.

JoniBoy Correct.

We need a common currency like the EU. It will happen and then there will be no more pricing parity problems.

Tirerack doesn't sell 'discount' brand tires, they sell premium tires at a discount. Sorry, no Kumho or even Hankook. As for warranty, not sure how it works as I saved over 50% per tire so I'm not...

Thanks for the audio files... how did you record to your computer?

So, after all is said and done, paying BMW their extortion fee, i think it's possible to still have a significant savings (buying...

You don't need an appointment for the letter. Just took my car in, service rep looked at the VIN and my US title, took my ~500$ and I'm about 8 days in now waiting for the letter to be faxed back. I...

Hi Tuner1. I would support a local tire shop instead of Tirerack.com but I called 3 different places and had quote that all averaged around $3K taxes paid for 17" tires, rims, tire pressure sensors,...

RIV accepted a carfax report? Are you kidding. Damn i should have tried that before spending 500$ to BMW. I did get an email of the vehicle details which does say no open campaigns.

How in the...

I keep hearing how the Edmonton dealer is much better to deal with versus Calgary.

Ok. I'll also call the Edmonton dealer as well. If I'm spending 500$ I'll naturally go where the quickest service is.

Thanks for the replies. So 500$, and take it into the dealership. I already have the daytime running lights active. Has anyone dealt with the dealers in Calgary for the letter? Which is the better...

Does anyone know of a BMW dealer that will issue the recall letter without seeing the car. I'd like to phone in the VIN with my visa number if possible.

The attitude of the CEO and the service departments, and now BMW Canada with their 500$ letter and "inspection" of imported cars makes me realize BMW CANADA is not a company I want to deal with. They...

Dunlop Sport M3. Either H or V rated. Remember to downsize to a narrower tire for better snow traction.

Also, tirerack.com is great to deal with and the prices can't be beat. Got my winter rims...

Unfortunately the US dealers have put an end to this practice. My dealer in the US won't even print off the vehicle service history as BMW USA prohibits it now... as ppl were using this to get around...

Does anyone have advice on which dealer to use to get the recall letter? Do they need to see the car or can I phone in with the VIN and my credit card number? Is there a dealer that someone knows of...
