David, I'll be in Queenstown for a week from the 9th of April (then going to bmw driver training in Christchurch, woohoo), hope to see it on the roads by then!!!

[David (NZ)]

Thanks Dan, lol I doubt it'll be on the road by then but my fingers are crossed.

Good news, just got of the phone with the mechanic, he believes it's a stuffed oil pump. He can order one in for $400NZD (approx $290USD) if anyone knows where i can find one cheaper please let me know.

Thanks. .Dave

SD European in Hamilton often has good prices, and they do overnight courier on most parts. www.sdeuropean.co.nz

Also try Specialised Auto Spares in Wellington (04) 5278111, haven't bought anything from them yet but I hear they are good.

Thanks Dan, $175+gst is definetly better on the pocket.


Have a good weekend.

Cheers. .Dave
