Mayor ofcourse you have to order that very part. No business man will use all his fund to buy a delicate part when he is not sure of demand.

I really don't understand your attack on Ladipo! If Ladipo is not a parts market, what is Ladipo market?? Even auto-medic has a store there.

I won't argue with you on this anymore because you have failed to understand my point.

Compare the price of that eps with a volkswagen passat or mercedes, even lexus and acura. This is when we can talk.

Good day!!!
Join the team of engineers and comprehend it better. You went to search for the engine of the op's car. Did you get it capital NO? That's to tell you that the engine can't be found in the local market. Considering the fact that the op is not a resident in lagos, If you have done good business with part suppliers in ladipo you would know what am talking about. The guys there would only tell him they have got the engine only on arrival would he be disappointed seeing some thing else. He would even be hearinh stories of how another engine can fit in for his car. I rest to my case @ this junction. Have got loads of work to attend to in the workshop. Peace

Your statement is void. You say bmw parts are not expensive. You call ladipo a spare part market. Never am I going to blame you for any reason basically because you are not an automobile engineer. Recently I bought a used eps (electric power steering rack) for bmw528i 2012 xdrive for 850k. Brand new cost 1.2m. Coscharis requested for 1.35m and here you are talking. Pls tell me if that is cheap. I always make a mockery of them when I request for bmw parts from ladipo. Never call bmw cheap pls

Someone already gave him a price for the same engine in Lagos, someone has also offered to help in checking the vin. Make sure there is a guarantee written on the receipt. Let them include the validity of the guarantee. It is usually 1 or 2 weeks.

I am available whenever you are in Lagos.

7series doesn't have the most expensive part Mayor. Stop deceiving people else you are talking of recent models of 7series (2010 above). E65 parts is cheaper than S class of same year.

This is just 2007 760LI for God sake! Cheap car!!!
Carry out your research well. Am talking about recent models. I smell something fishy here. You call 2007 760i ordinary. What's the net worth of the car. Like I said earlier I smell something fishy here

Buy from Lagos! They give guarantee even in Ladipo market, the buyer will write it on the receipt. They usually give 2weeks. If you negotiate well, you will get the engine cheaper... bmw parts are cheaper in lagos than most brands!
Pls show me where bmw parts are cheaper in lagos. Trunk gate lift module is 90k. And you talkn cheap?

Its not for the faint of heart. Someone called me a while ago looking for the shocks on a 760il limousine (European Spec). Its air shocks. I went into the dealership and its like $1,100 EACH!! the back ones. Did not hear from him again

Better to drive the Landcruisers and 4Runners

Not really. 760i is the MOST luxurious and most expensive vehicle made by BMW. They are about $135,000 New.

Expensive car = Expensive part especially when you are talking about the most important part of the car - The ENGINE

Owner should have be more careful. These engines are not supposed to just pack up unless someone was not being too careful somewhere
You are very correct 7 series has got the most expensive part. Good luck to the owner

Adjusting idle to about 1500. For this buhari season. Have you checked the news lately. Fuel would be selling for 200# per litre soon. By the time that car drinks 5 litres in 2mins. You would know that this change is real

Another weyerey motor is W164 Mercedes Benz ML350/550/63 AMG 2005-2013. They had their battery under their front passenger seat. Right under the rug trim. angry
Same as Volkswagen touareg. Right underneath the rug between the driver's seat and rear seat. Do these manufacturers take some cokes when building these cars?
Car Talk › Re: Why Do They Put Car Batteries In The Trunk? by mayor2013: 11:53am On Sep 05, 2016
Do not forget we have the auxiliary batteries. We see that on top notch benz, bmw and even hybrid cars. There is no special intention to this. It just serves as a helping hand to the primary battery of the car in cases where car is full electronics. How do you expect a car to run well on just one battery when you have up to 100 control units on one car cry

I suggest you go to the market and hear the price yourself. Thank your star it wasn't the 2012. Engine is 2.8m
Car Talk › Re: Nissan Expert In The House, I Need Your Help by mayor2013: 8:37am On Sep 04, 2016
I don't know the design of your engine. Do you have just a single serpentine belt here ? Or you have a different belt that drives the power steering pump? If its out. Replace or fix back if in good condition. On another point, it could be while trying to drive out of the trapped mud. A lot of mud found its way into the cells of the radiator thereby blocking them. Inspect radiator if dirty. If it is clean it up, I hope this helps.

N/B: a single serpentine belt drives the water pump, alternator and power steering in some engines. So you might want to check that out.

Get a replacement engine. You get a peace of mind

Car Talk › Re: Problem With My Toyota Car. by mayor2013: 10:44pm On Aug 27, 2016
First thing you need to do is run a comprehensive scan on your car. I can see steering warning light, tpms, abs. A scan would reveal what is going on. To run a proper diagnosis and solve the problem. Call multi autolab on 08156087872 or 08165520837 if in lagos

Run a scan on tpms. A scan result would reveal which of the tpms is faulty. By the way what car is this?
