[QUOTE="525iBoy, post: 143700, member: 1183"] One workshop you must NEVER goto to service your beemer is 911 Zentrum . there are TWO 911 Zentrum. The one I refer to is run by the youger 30+ year old guy not the older man. I saw some BMs there... good luck. Last time, the mechanic said I needed to overhaul my engine as the overheating was caused by "congested" pathways in the engine block qutoing me RM4000 I asked him howcome he did not check teh simples things first such as radiator, thermostat, cooling fan!! He said he looked at radiator and thermostatn and it was OK. cooling fan was running. BUT when I asked him HOW did he know the radiator was ok bec you can't see inside and how did he test the thermostat he just insisted it was a congested engine block!! Long story short.!! the overheating cost me RM135 in overhaulling the radiator - NOT 4000!!. and the car ran perfect - at 1/4 mark for next 3 years till I sold it.!! moral of story: know your car and don't trust just one mechanic.
