Hey guys, i wonder if someone can help me out...i got a load of problems with the car and i need some ideas urgently!
I have already paid 5,000aed for AGMC to service the car. I am about to pay 7,000aed to X Service for repairs they have carried out aginst the defects identified at the service. Though i am not thrilled about the 12,000aed price tag for this work, it's not the end of the world.
However, X service have been working to identify the source of a gringing noise coming from the rear of my car upon turning. After much investigation, they have said that the rear diff needs replacing, at a cost of 15,700aed.
I know X Service aren't ripping me off, but i need to investigate all avenues before i commit to that cost. So, does any know where i can source a new or used rear differential for my 2004 E46 M3? Are there any local or international suppliers, spare parts dealers or breakers yards that might have one going cheap?
There are some listed on ebay in the UK, but i'm not sure what i'm looking for. They are certainly cheaper than the prices here, but am i getting the right thing? Does it make a difference for left/righ hand drive cars or is the diff universal? Are the below parts suitable? Any help VERY much appreciated.
