BMW Charging me 2k for engine stencil!!!

[1D4LV]

mahirap ata talagang hanapin ang engine number ng euro cars.
if i remember it right, yung isang company car namin dito na volvo, na-icharge ng 1500 yung corporate affairs namin for that one stencil. hehehehe.

[CVT]

What a b$mmer!!!

First time I heard of that.

It is BMW's fault na ganon ang design ng engine number (nakatago sa ilalim?) tapos pahihirapan ang mga buyers to shell out that much money for a simple stencil. Yung mga BMW owners naman, walang magawa since they own a BMW so they think they have to bear with this and the casa thinks these people have money to burn.

If that was my car, and if it still had warranty, I would have complained with the manager of BMW to have it done for free. Try to compose a complaint letter to the president of BMW and have it published in one of the newspapers or car columnist such as james deakin.

Yun sa Camp karingal magaling yun kumuha ng engine number ko. Pang merienda lang binigay ko ayos na.

[GlennSter]

alam niyo sa pinas lang naman nahihirapan mag stencil nyan kasi ang pagkakaalam ko, dito sa canada and usa eh iniiscan lang yata ang bar code or something whatever para mastencil na sila.hehehehe.i dont know the exact technology that they use.

[quiksie]

sa pajero din tatanggalin muna ang intercooler tapos tsaka palang stencil kaya mmejo natatagalan bago mastencil ang sasakyan

[OTEP]

Ang babait niyo naman, build plate lang sa engine bay at yung part number ng headlamp ang iniistencil ko para walang hassle.

Sayang Php 2,000.00 mo. Kahit sa ibang kotse mo pa kunin ang stencil wala namang makakapansin! hehehe. Who the hell actually looks at those stencils anyways? For all the years I've had the Pajero, once lang siya na-stencil ng totoo. Nung mag-change ng ownership. That's it.

naku baka mabasa ng japanese car makers ito at pahirapan sa future models, imagine toyota corolla or honda crv charging P1,000 for stencil. with 1M of these models on the streets magkano yun hehehe?

[bad driver]

uhm, medyo masama to pero 150 php usually ang "multa" if missing ang engine number stencil. as long as hindi mo kinarnap yung kotse mo, ok lang cguro to hehe.

[the_wildthing]

Malalim talaga yun and it's better kung i-lift na lang, which is what BMW is going to do.

boyscout, bumayad ka na lang sa gas station ng lift tapos ikaw na lang mag-stencil. 100 pesos lang nakapag-underwash ka pa.

[boyscout]

Save na ang (2000 x 10) 20000 mo. Bili kanalang ng Mupirocin (Bactroban) ointment for the scratches di aabot ng 250 yon. he he

Other countries do not require the engine number for registration or insurance, they only use the VIN.

[fourtheboys96]

ako ginagamit ko is carbon paper at scotch(???) tape. pahid mo sa engine number yung carbon paper then dikit mo yung tape then pull it off. parang finger printing. tanggap din naman ng LTO. ewan ko lang sa iba.

[claRkEnt]

just wondering...

bakit kailangan ilagay sa napakahirap na lugar ng mga manufacturers samantalang alam naman nila gamit ng number?
.

[garyq]

boy scout: galing bro ha. Pasensya ka na kasi Euro computation sa BMW eh

[theveed]

Ibang country kasi gamit VIN number...

[BlueBimmer]

yep VIN number nasa baba lng na wiper under the hood.

hirap din sobra stencil ng E36, maubos buhok mo sa inis hehe
