X5goldie is on a distinguished road
Dilemma dilemma dilemma....

So I have a 04 4.4i and it runs great, shifts smooth and love driving the car. It has 206K and car does not smoke, but there is major issues (for me at least) The valley pan gasket is toast and it leaking coolant. It's a $2200.00 fix from an Indy shop. That seems a lot for an old car.

Would you take the hit? or would you let her go and move on. I don't know what else is going to go next. BUT I love driving the car. It's not too big and it has plenty of power for me. Ahhhhhh! decisions decisions..

Or is there anyone here in the PNW that can do this repair at a fraction?
