Oh my.... I get headache when I hear that. The same thing happened to me when my front right wheel-side axle boot broke. BMW-dealership wanted 750 euros (745 Dollars) for replacing JUST THE BOOT!
It is insane. It took me around 4 hours in total, but I saved 700 euros! |

I think I will use your break down to negotiate better pricing and keep you posted with the results when I get the car back. Thank you again! |

I'd like to get down to the bottom of it with the dealer first though. Thank you for the suggestion. |

Sadly, this is very common dealer practice. I only say sadly because it's legal and they take advantage of owners everyday with no reason to stop. As I mentioned in my experience, the same dealer that tried to charge me 30% markup over MSRP sold me the same part at >25% below MSRP through their online store.
