BMW 540i Engine swap (Geplaudere Forum)

My car broke down, when i was on vacation in Germany. ADAC drove the car to the nearest BMW shop,
and the BMW workshop concluded that the engine had to be replaced. Engine swap at BMW would cost 13.000€.
Something that is ridiculous much.

The car is now in Rendsburg, I wonder if there are any workshops in the area that are cheaper? :p The best would be to replace the engine with a well
maintained second hand engine.

Regards :)

I forgot to mention, The car is an BMW 540i E34 1993mod

that is a ridiculous amount of money....
depending on how much a new or used motor costs... it shouldnt cost over 1000 euros to swap

ok, thanks for your reply


Around 1000€ is normal for the work of money?

Anyone have experience with these guys?

the most I would say is 1000.. an engine swap for the same engine should only take 14 hrs,, and I have no idea what I am doing and do it in that time.. A professional shop with more tha 3 workers... should be no problem if you are brining them another motor.
