My fix cost me absolutely nothing except a few minutes of my time. The Stealerships never offer this option. They possibly dont even know about it.
I have a 2004 X5 Sport 4,4i with 85000 Kms on the speedo. Just over 50000 miles, and I was quoted over $11000 to replace the sunroof. You think MBWs are expensive in USA, you will get a shock in Australia. Top of the range model is $199,990.00 registered on the road here. Nearly half of that is Government taxes. Cheaper X5s are about $163,000, and you dont get too many extras for that money.
