Had my step brother put my car up on his lift today to take a look at it with me, I just bought the car from a member here for a pretty good price and noticed after the first snowfall the awd wasn't working it was pretty much just a RWD 325ix.. so we took a look at the front axle and the half shaft on one side is broken, the lower front control arm needs replacing cause the joints are bad but the whole things gotta come out, and the bearing needs replacing since i've been hearing it whine while driving it.
My reason for posting this isn't to complain about the car its just that i need to try to find a better price on parts.. the only person he could find a control arm for the ix for gave him a price of 342.00 just for the part at his shops price... i think i can do better than that otherwise it's gunna have to wait.. the rest of it i can afford to get done relatively soon but i just thought id see if anyone here can help locate me a cheaper part?
thanks ahead of time.
