QUOTE(Mavik @ Feb 13 2013, 04:01 PM) If comfort is your priority, go for stock suspension (not even the M-Sport ones) and make sure you get it from a BMW stockist (not the dealer). Its cheaper that way  Thanks bro, any shop to recommend and estimated damage for both front and rear will be?

QUOTE(Mavik @ Feb 22 2013, 05:11 PM) You can't service original BMW shock absorbers according to the ZF. They recommend replacing them. Usually for coilovers you can service them, replace the gas/oil. But for the stock BMW ones, best to swap them. Hi Mavik its serviceable according to a seller here at lowyat.net who specialized in servicing abs, but it takes 1 week to complete.

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Mar 13 2013, 01:36 AM) That's a great place to buy parts  I always buy from them too but some parts are over priced as well. Anyway, they are the best currently as the others are even more expensive  I wonder is there any other BMW parts importer other than AB, SG etc

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Mar 13 2013, 01:39 PM) I think you meant BA (rather than AB)?  From what I know, there are 3 of them but Bavarian Auto is the most reasonable in terms of pricing. Damn typo Do u know any other BMW parts shop? Like those along Jln Ipoh, full of Hondas Toyotas parts shop.

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Mar 22 2013, 10:54 AM) I want an SUV that is not too big. X5 too big,X3 not bad, X1 perfect size for me. Anyone can't tell why 2nd hand price of X1 is so bad, 100K drop in just 2 years! Price drop is great news for me,but worry if there's something seriously wrong!  100k 2 yrs for conti car is pretty norm. Always go to a reputable BMW workshop to check it out. It will saves u alot of money. Checkup usually dont cost more than RM100.

QUOTE(automotiv8tion @ Aug 28 2013, 10:06 PM) Hi guys, what do you guys think about the e60 bmw m5? would it be valuable it being the last v10? collectors value? or is there an excess of e60 m5's going for sale in the malaysian market now? E60 is a model that i would say quite controversial in terms of looks, some 5series hardcore fans do not like the E60 design, so as for the collectors value question, its very subjective unlike the predecessor will definitely a classic. That being said, i still love my e60 althou it does gimme problems from time to time.
