My Ride: 2006 BMW 550i
example:
1400 for brakes and oil? ouch. even if i paid full bmw retail for the discs, pads, and sensor, thats less than $600.
vacuum pump? $400 part at full bmw price, and an easy job to replace.
maybe find an independent shop. personally i use a bmw tech who does work out of his house on the side.

nothing personal, but you shouldnt take what the dealer is dishing out to you. at least haggle them a bit.

GL with the situation Rex. Were there any other telltale signs besides the check engine light? Just wondering if any of those issues could have been diagnosed earlier. As a fellow 545i owner just curious if I can prevent, or notice these conditions earlier.
Mainly concerning these:
# Tank Venting Valve(causing the engine light) - $569.00
# Active Steering Motor Leak - $2395.00
# Engine Vacuum Pump Leak - $1039.00
