Had the front brakes lock up last week, got stuck on the N1 south for 20min before it released.
Drove it to Bavarian, they reported front brakes needed to be replaced, R 2600 later
Could not believe it is R 1000 / set of brake pads.
Problem seems solved.
I. can't see how worn pads will cause the brakes to lock up? Makes no sense.

Min of meer my gevoel ook

Me neither. Unless they were totally worn out and the caliper's pistons went out too far and got stuck? But that would point to a design issue or something then. Just speculating.
Nope, I think they are taking you for a ride.

1000km service Euro 112. That's about R1555,00 at today's rate.

I would also raise this BMW head office as well as the dealer, especially that it had its 10k service 2k earlier. How did they get to R2.6k? Two sets of pads at R800 each plus 15 min labour, this cant be R800. If so did they at least use KY?

Not service, but part of maintenance...
New rear Anarkee 3 fitted at Bavarian for just under R2200. This was at 12500km.

Jinne! Jy moenie so jaag nie! My Anakaee 3 agter is na 20000km nog piekfyn.

I paid R3100 at Eastview for a new rear last week. They charged R350 for fitment

Meeste van die GSA se Kms is Lang afstand, met bagasie en pillion. Dan hou die band nie lank nie.
Die ou band is nog nie heeltemal moeg nie, maar wil nie Kans vat op volgende trip nie.

Ja nee manne. Die BMW Stealeships sien my ook nie weer vinnig nie. Het my R9T by Zambesi gehad vir 20k diens. Normale diens, geen rem skoene, net olie en olie filter vervang. Hulle gesê om die lug filter te los want ek het 'n BMC filter wat ek self elke +-5k doen. Die som totaal? R2800 odd. Dis belaglik. My nuwe (ou) R1200GSA (2012) word nou by die huis gediens en ek dink baie sterk daar aan om die R9T ook self te doen ... screw die warranty.

Nèt olie en filter? Genugtig, dis rof, ja. Snaaks, my seun se F800 se 30K diens, ook net olie en filter (hy het ook BMC wat hy self doen) was R1450 by Bavarian. Was dieselfde prys vir my LC op 10K diens. Moet sê, Bavarian (Centurion) se pryse is nog altyd billik. En die diens ook.

R2800 klink effe rof, maar die 20k diens is nie net olie en olie filter nie op die Boxer enjins nie.

My 20K diens op die LC was nie eers naby aan R2000 gewees nie.
Hoe kan die pryse so radikaal verskil van een handelaar na die volgende???
« Reply #113 on: August 17, 2015, 07:59:42 pm »
Nee. Ek bedoel dis al wat vervang is. Die res was die normale diens tyd.

Ek kan nie uit die vuis onthou nie, maar 'n paar verskille wat my onmiddelik opval tussen die R9T en die LC is:
- 4 vonkprop teenoor 2.
- Ekstra ratkas olie
Maar ja, lees net die begin van die thread, dan sal jy sien die pryse verskil Mar redelik tussen die handelaars. Hulle is tog onafhanklike besighede.

Plugs is duur, ja. Kan soveel as R800 wees.

Nee ... alternator belt is nie vervang nie. ... wag laat ek daai slip gaan soek en hom in scan ... voor ek verder op my crappy brein staat maak

Nee, Alternator belt is op 40k eers. Net genoem as voorbeeld van verskille tussen die Boxer en die LC Boxer.
Soos reeds gesê R2800 klink effe rof. Die arbeid op 20k is normaalweg hoër omdat hulle nogal, as deel van die standaard diens, heelwat werk doen, soos shaft bearing torque en so aan. Klink nog te duur. Dis hoekom die meeste van ons niemand anders as Bavarian gebruik nie.
