How expensive is expensive ? (BMW maintenance)

[renzo_d10]

Just getting curious day by day.

How expensive is it to maintain a BMW ? Lets say BMW's year 00 ~ present.

When you hear the initials " BMW " the usual thing that pops out from your mind is of course first " porma " then usually " high/expensive maintenance " comes in second or in third.

So how expensive really is EXPENSIVE ? Is it comparable to lets say a camry or an accord ?

- please give an estimate for the ff ...

regular pms : xxxxxx php
major pms ( requires you to replace a lot of parts ) : xxxxxx php

uy may bibili ng bimmer hehehe

from what I've read in these threads, there seems to be steps and levels with bimmer casa maintenance...

the "step 1" - an initial diagnostic costing around 6-8k

whee magkano kaya yung iba?

[renzo_d10]

ako bibili ? hindi. :hysterical:

una - wala akong pambili. hehehe
second - malamang nga hindi ko kaya maintenance.

napansin ko lang kasi, mas dumarami naka bimmers ngayon. or atleast sa mga dinadaanan ko. kaya naging curious ako how much is yung maintenance nila

anyways.

initial diagnostic ? 6-8k ? :faint:

.. or is it just, hindi lang talaga mahirap ang mga pinoy ?

I think I remember a price quote for my dad's 3 series BMW ...

BMW high tension wires = P8000 .............. per wire.

BMW front lower suspension arm = P14,000 (labor not included)

P8000, per wire ?

scary. :blue:

I now know how rich act111 really is.

Good topic. Medyo may kamahalan ang high tension wires pero di naman palagi pinapalitan yun. Ang curious ako is that how much ang PMS nya. The usual jap car is between 3k to 5k.

Tsaka, wala bang replacement parts ito sa Banawe?

kung papansinin mo medyo marami kang makikitang M3. hehe

That's the major thing that I want to know din. I hope someone can give an estimate.

BMW car battery (for the 3 series) = P12,000 (if I remember correctly)

Installation labor not included.
