Does anyone here have access to BMW billed hours data
Just got a call from my dealer with the diagnosis after bringing the 35d in for what appeared to be a small oil leak by the turbos. SA stated that pressure lines are getting replaced under warranty but after 75k mi the vacuum lines are dry rot and need replacing. I honestly don't find this hard to believe given the high amount of heat they are subject to. SA stated that unfortunately total cost is about $800 for replacement as they don't fall under warranty. I'll be asking for a breakdown of what needs replacing and the labor costs tomorrow but I wanted to see if anyone has access to the billable hours for the vacuum line replacement to get an idea where the quote should be. I already get a hookup on the parts so I just need to figure out labor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |

If you had the N63 CCP campaign work done on the car, those parts should've been replaced and still under the 2 year, unlimited miles warranty. If not, your doing the right thing by asking around ... and I don't know the answer.

It's for a 35d. I ended up just ordering the parts myself (ordered all vacuum lines which was about $100) from my buddy in the parts dept. I'll just do it myself and save $700. The job looks pretty straight forward.

The lines weren't faulty so even if they did fall under the warranty it wouldn't be covered. It was a recommended replacement. Frankly I don't mind doing it myself and putting together a DIY for other people needing to do similar work.
