[QUOTE="wc9922, post: 248800, member: 6000"] Hi, want share some of my cost to date since I got the car in early Dec 98. 528i '97 ABS sensor front wheels 285 each Fan clutch 285 ( This is a power grabber! Sluggish acceleration is a symthom. Change it if your car sounds like an aeroplane when revving the engine past 3000 rpms. ) Valve cover gasket 90. Window seal front 130/ 130-rear Door apron - 150 each Center storage box 260 I am watching the cooling system now. I suspect some small leak from the expansion tank but the compartment are tight to check. also black plastic doesn't help. Reason: If i top up water to the brim and drive it around, next few days before cold start water level is always below the min mark. Temp is ok. Water is not boiling over when I do a open radiator cap warm-up test. Do you guys notice the price of parts are almost the same at all the major BMW parts stockist? I have a feeling their list prices are controlled. Only can ask for some discount but normally it's quite little given. cheers! [/QUOTE]
