Hi,
I do some DIY but don't want to do the coolant flush, power steering and brake fluid. A independent shop quote was $335 + tax, don't have the break down. Is that reasonable?
It's for a 2005 530i.

Thank you,
Ronny

 

Might be a little high but doesn't seem too bad. Is this shop a bmw specialist? If not, make sure they use the correct fluids, I like to stick with bmw fluids.

 

sounds to me like 2.5 hours at $100 per hour, with the remaning 85 being fluid costs. provided they're using the correct fluids (BMW coolant, CHF11S, and high quality brake fluid), that sounds very reasonable to me. it's also an easy DIY if you have the time and space, you could knock that out in one afternoon and save yourself some cash.

good luck with your car.

 

thank you guys,
