E90 330i Diff Rebuild Midlands

Hi guys

My diff has been making constant high pitched worn bearing type noises for ages now so I really should get it sorted.

Anyone know of anywhere cheap / decent in the Midlands?

My M5 was £399 from memory. Took them about a week. BMW wanted over £3k for an exchange unit, so I didn't think it was too bad!

Great, I've dropped them an email.

Anyone else know of anywhere else that would be great I'd like to compare quotes.

The only thing I've thought of thus far is buying a rebuilt diff (off ebay) and paying a garage to fit it. However this gets to near 1k quickly so I think if I can find a rebuild for £500 or under that would be great!!
