Subject: E28 Driveshaft Replacement
Bob,
With regard to the below-mentioned driveline problem, I went through
Driveline Service of Portland (OR). If I remember correctly, their new
shaft was about $300, and has greaseable/replaceable U-joints. My
dealer was familiar with them and has had good results with their
product. Since a new dealer-supplied shaft was about twice this amount,
the decision was a no-brainer. They can be reached at 800.227.8608.
Good luck, usual disclaimers.

Anybody been through this before, or have an idea how
many hours or dollars a good shop might charge for replacing a 535i
driveshaft? I've seen ads in Roundel and elsewhere for for rebuilt
units, so I know that the driveshaft itself will be about $500 (?), but
I'd really like some idea as to what to expect for labor. My experience
has been it's quite helpful to have an idea as to customary pricing
_before_you stroll into the repair facility. :)
TIA,
