Price for discs and pads E60 M5
Discussion
Not really, I've just priced up my fronts as they'll need replacing soon, I can get the OE parts from Eurocarparts for just under £440, then an hours labour @ £120ish. I did the rears six months ago, all parts were just under £400 IIRC.
Spark plugs are around £12 each, so £120 in parts, can't remember what the labour is on this though, surely no more than an hour?

I've just paid the following to a Sytner Main dealer
£590 for Rear pads and Discs Supplied and Fitted
£945 for Front Pads and Discs supplied and Fitted
&
£370 spark plugs service
Have I got a good deal on the brakes?

Sounds about right for a main dealer. You may have been fleeced a couple of hundred compared to buying OEM parts and fitting them at an indy but that's the cost of a BMW stamp.
Did the spark plug service include an oil change too? If so, that's ok pricewise.
No it didn't include a oil change. Did the spark plug service include an oil change too? If so, that's ok pricewise.
An no I can't do it myself.
It is what it is now.. Also two of the coil packs were ceased so had to have them changed too..
Sounds about right for dealer prices, I just paid £764 for engine oil change, SMG gearbox oil change & diff oil change at BMW. Engine oil change on the V10 at BMW is about £290 on its own , it holds just under 10 litres of oil which they know how to charge for. Spark plug change at BMW prices sounds about right on the V10.

How do I know if my SMG oil and Diff oil need changing? Shaoxter said:
It's recommended for every third oil change, i.e. when the plugs are due
Lol so ideally I should have it done now seeing as the spark plugs have just been done. Should I just get a Indy to do it? My local Indy isn't cheap in fact my local dealer quoted me better prices than he did. Can any mechanic do a SMG oil and Diff Oil change (I can't do it)? It's had the oil service done recently but I think that's just engine oil as it was done by the previous owner from a Indy.Also the oils I will obviously supply my self from BMW.
