Oil Leaks 2008 650i. E64
2008 650i E64 with 80,000 miles[ATTACH]
Well, it finally happened! After reading many posts in this Forum about dreaded engine leaks, I took the car into the Dealership for brake replacement service and to check some oil leaks found on our garage floor.
After a $195 diagnostic fee, they identified 5 leaks. They gave me an estimate of more than $10K to repair everything (couldn’t
elp but wonder the cost of a new motor compared to that repair price!).
In any event, I asked the “service advisor” which was the most severe. He consulted with the shop Foreman and told me that most of the oil was leaking from the alternator bracket seal. Their estimate to repair is $2,375.
Question for our Forum Friends…
Any possibility that repairing the “alternator bracket seal” can be a do-it-yourself repair? If not, does anyone think my local auto repair guy (rebuilt my Camaro 350) can do this?
