An appropriate response from a trusted vendor would have been the option of various brands and the OPTIONAL final drive ring and pinnion.
I may have read it wrong. If it was a "D", the $4600 is one of the less expensive options.

If it wasn't a "D", but rather an "i", then it's a different story. With a welded ring gear on late model 335i's, you are still looking at a $1995 Wavetrac or $2588 for a Quaife final drive. You can not simply purchase the LSD only and expected to be installed locally as the ring gear must be machined.

Given the memeber's location, a drive shaft may even be required as the drive shaft to pinion flange is different than the US market.

That is a one time deal and will not happen again. Wavetrac drop the ball on that one to allow a none authorized dealer to sell Quaife at the price!

You are one of the few with a bolted ring gear on a M/T, production date before 02/2007. Any 335i after that must purchase a complete final drive.

If someone is selling the Wavetrac at $1000, I wan to know about it. Wavetrac will remove their dealership status.
