reasonable Rod Bearings price in Canada

Hi guys, I bought my e92 M3 recently and it is currently sitting at 48000kms. I am pretty sure the prev owners haven't done the rod bearings and I wonder if it is a good time to do it. I got a few quotes ranging from approx 3800 (in BC) to 4500. I wonder how much you guys paid for yours?

Ouch. Jesus. That is high.

Buy some tools and do it yourself. That is what I did. It is a full day job. So, $1200 in labor and then $1500 or so in parts to do BE bearings. That includes fluids. So anything over $3K is a rip off in my opinion. It is not a difficult job. There is a great DIY on the forum.

Cheers,

Mike Auto in Richmond is very reasonable and has done plenty of RB jobs. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
