What price to expect?

BigMansWagon · 05-29-2013, 08:46 AM

So I took the car in for a year maintenance at BMW HK, which at the basic level set me back 6k for an oil change and the usual filters.

:'(

Now, they suggested I change my fronts tyres, front disks, front pads, complete with wheel alignment. The cost just for that is worse than a horror film.

How much should I expect to get this done outside of BMW HK?

Thanks!

For the tire you can easily check if they need changing by looking at the wear indicator(that's assuming they are wearing evenly).

Why don't you take your car to another garage for a 2nd opinion as regards to all those items that they suggested needs changing?
