    For those who work at auto repair places

    How much would your shop charge to replace the whole vanos on an M5x engine? (I would supply the vanos)

          The $tealer calls for @6 hours. I had one done at Turner for my brothers 1993 e36 325i, and it took them 4 hours. They've developed a new tool that drops the time down to 3.5hrs since then. But no matter how long it takes the $tealer to actually do the VANOS work, you'll still get charged "book" for it.

              BMW warranty 'book' time for it is 26 units. There are 8 units to an hour. 3.25 hours. Customer pay time would be a bit more at most shops looking to dig in your wallet.
