If I ever come on here again and moan about BMW parts then someone should give me a remote slapping. Took the g/b out of the VW R32 and nipped down to VW for a crankshaft oil seal. None in the UK but have them in Germany and it will take at least 2 yes 2 weeks to have one sent to my local dealer. £64. They can’t find the 3 "o" ring seals between g/b and transfer case. Thankfully AUTODOC to the rescue. Febi seal £19. Corteco £12.
