I bought an '07 E90 335i a few months back and was told that there was no problem with the car (owned by a bmw mechanic) but he lied. Turbos are rattling. I even sent it to his dealership and came back negative.

How much would it cost to replace the turbos and which shop should I send it to. Which shop is not gonna charge me an arm and a leg? LOL

Any tips where i can buy parts and just pay for labour?
There are ways to fix or minimize wastegate rattle, it depends on how bad is it. If you do want to replace turbos check fcpeuro.com since they will give you lifetime warranty on parts, send it to blaine or point roberts and save some money on shipping and duty. Every shop will charge you 20+ hours for the job ( 100+ per hour ) You are looking at $2000-2500 just for the labour.
