Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Replacing the BMW - result... (1 of 2)

Uh, you will get the valley pan issue eventually on the M45 too but it's at the 
"old" BMW cost.  Sheesh, can you believe we think $1,000 service bills are 
"cheap" now?

Yeah, I paid that same $500 to fix the valley pan gasket.  And replace the 
radiator and expansion tank and thermostat.  And the front suspension (twice).  
And the alternator too.  But still, for 198k miles, who am I to complain???  :-)

All of which TOGETHER costs way, way, way less than any of the major services 
I've had done on one of my FCars...  :-)

Good to know about the valley pan issue on the newer cars.  BTW, watched 
Breaking Bad from last night.  There was a GORGEOUS dark blue Bentley 
Continental.  Hmmmm....

vty,
