    Instrument cluster for G30 2018 model

    spare parts can try Eng Soon (google Eng Soon). Give them your chassis number they should be able to source for you. If not stock, they can order from overseas and usually take about at most 2-3 weeks to arrive. Not too sure whether can just order the plastic part or need the whole instrument...

    Alu valve cover definitely looks better! Easier to clean as well. Did it come with a new set of gasket or you re-use the old one?

    There are many good workshops in Malaysia (for us would be JB) and because of exchange rates, their price will be reasonable. If don't have trusted ws, Go for those that are public listed coys, or their authorised distributors (yes, they do service SG cars) I myself went to a local ws that is...

    Should I go to Performance Motors for engine oil change OR ?

    ha, it was quite long ago, so cannot really remember the labour cost, should not exceed more than $50 for the valve seal and $200+ for the cylinder head cover (which includes the gasket). Cannot really recall, so better to call up and ask around. "If change the Cylinder head Cover with the...

    BMW X5 2010 E70- Engine Fault-Reduced power

    This is most unfortunate for you at the moment. The gearbox is controlled by the mechatronics unit so not very sure the mechanic changed the right component for you. My E60 mecha unit cost about under S$4k to replace the other time. I only changed this and not the gearbox and it worked fine...

    BMW X5 2010 E70- Engine Fault-Reduced power

    Have u checked/changed the Mechatronics? (by right should change every 5-7 years to maintain smoothness of gear change) Its never possible to give a proper diagnosis based on text/verbal exchanges as there are many possible reasons for the same problem. Try another workshop to have a second...

    Bmw E60 2007 loosing coolent drastically and no leak identified

    When no pressure loss is detected, then its most likely a very small leak and the coolant is lost only during engine running, or it could be the coolant tank cap Next time you drive for some time and park, do not turn off your engine yet. Open the hood and with a good light source, look around...
