I'm driving a BMW E36 American Spec Coupe.... i'm having issues with the front tie rod and ball joint lately, which I took the car for repairs, unfortunately the mechanic guy ripped me off by taking off the ball joint and tie rod to refurbish it (changing the rubber at the ends or maybe hitting the ends with a heavy metal for it to be firm) twas ok for the first two days till I drove the car to a bad road and it starting making the unusual noise like something wanna pull out under the car....

Now I wanna know how much a new ball joint and tie rod assembly cost for E36 1999 Series, and I stay in Uyo, Akwa Ibom and unfortunately I dunno where to see a good BMW mechanic here.... and the cost for a clutch release bearing.... cos some of dis mechanics are willingly to rip you off if you don't know the price of a car part

So any ideas?

Any most of all...The car is a BEAST!! Low fuel consumption and an M-Package Ride

I need ur ideas to get dis Machine back to the road again

I'm not a spareparts dealer but I can visit spareparts shop for the parts. Meanwhile, is your car an all wheel drive or rearwheel, is it 6 cylinder or 4 cylinder?

Is it?

To my knowledge, the E36 Coupé was never available with AWD. The E46 Touring had the X option, and a handful of sedans. AWD however was never available in conjunction with the I4 engine. They were 2.0/2.5 I6 motors.

The E30 was also available with AWD. No E36 - Coupé, Sedan or Touring were ever available with AWD.

Thanks Brother
Pls, I'm in Uyo too
I use a 2004 E46 320i

Can you kindly drop his contact here or at my email address : seyiogundipe@gmail.com

I need someone who can help me change the Pre-Cat Oxygen Sensors
The guy I used to service my car last time really made have doubt in them.
After using an injection-cleansing liquid to spray the MAF Sensor, he then used a rag to vigorously mop/wipe it dry which was very wrong.
I don't want to risk going back to him
