not to thread jack but did the dealer really charge you $400 for a valve cover gasket?! its a 30 minute job...

elchicano 01-04-2009 12:33 AM

it was $300 and i bought the parts from pelican for $100. So yeah in the end it was $400. I wasn't 100% sure i could do it so i instead i took it to the dealer.:frown:

Anyone who says they did a 318ti valve cover in 30 minutes is a liar.

Good luck with the sale.

Valve cover gasket, spark plug seals, and new bolt seals are less than $40.00 combined.

If you have done them before, know what you are doing, and have all the tools ready to go... a valve cover gasket in 30 mins is very possible.

And if the gasket is not hard as a rock and fused to the cover.
And you don't drop anything. :)
Bolt seals? Maybe I should have done those too. :eek:

Well let me go back and check my receipts. I bought the parts more than a year ago and i actually got it done a couple of months ago. The number i put in was rough since i didn't have the receipts with me when i posted the add.

Lets not get into who can change a gasket the fastest. It has no point in my for sale thread.:biggrin:

You didn't say if it's Auto or 5-Spd in the CL ad, as well as cloth or leather interior, CD Player? Heated Seats, Cruise control etc. It'd definitely help sell your car faster.

GL on the sale

I've reported CL ad as spam! I wont let you sell it!! :( Though I really want to.

Keep the buyers number so you could buy it back in the future.

I would not bother to do a valve cover without replacing them! They are why the kits I sell are more expensive than others... I include all the bolt seals.

I'm so sad...:sniff:
