New Jersey BMW CCA

Has done fluid changes on my E32. Also replaced transmission valve body, which saved my car from the junkyard.

Will pay $35 if you ship. Deal?

Where are you located? If in Central Jersey, I have an excellent recommendation. I have a 1994 740iL (E32) that runs like new because of the independent I use.

The offer appears to be from BMW. Eight discs for $199. Supposedly a 2008 update for the USA/Canada.

Received an offer for a navigation update for my 2001 740iL (E38). Any thoughts on this? And how do you remove the old CD from the nav unit? Thanks for any help.

Can you give us details on what was done and how much it cost?
