2011 X5 N63 replacement 110,121. $9,241.37 total
Labor is $3,300/Material is $5,927 (engine is $4,151)
BMW of NA would not waive the 121 miles over the 25% threshold. I had to pay 90%. Waited 9 weeks for engine. Took 7 days to install. Runs great so far. So why pay ~10K for a repair on a car you only paid 14K for???? Well the sticker was 84.6K in 2011 and all other aspects of the car are nearly showroom quality. So all the stuff that made it expensive then, makes it worth the funds now. Good luck to everyone with their own N63 story. (By the way...I have a 2012 X6 in evaluation program now also)
We must all remember, to own and drive the ultimate driving machine isn't cheap
