The gearbox is nbd really - just get a fluid exchange done by a machine rather than the usual sump-off method and it'll give it new oil without disturbing anything.
The 14 year old timing belt probably warrants a visual inspection to check for cracking, perishing and tension, since the usual failure mode in that area is the hydraulic tensioner. The price seems sensible given these maintenance jobs though |

Cambelt change is either every 80k or 5 years, whichever comes first, so it sounds like this one is due/overdue, depending on whether the last change was within 5 years. I (very nearly...) pushed this too far with my S8, as the chain tensioner broke when MJ moved it from the front of her place to inside the workshop! (see her thread on this) - a very lucky escape from a potentially terminal mistake!

Picked up my 2015 BMW 640D mpsport grancoupe. So if anybody interested in the S8 before I put her in hibernation. Please feel free to get in touch.... don’t worry I have broad shoulders I won’t be offended. Like the old saying goes “ if you don’t ask, you don’t get” thanks.

I tried to send you a PM about this - but it is not appearing in my sent items so may not have come through.
Had some questions on this would be good to chat over if you could PM me your number Cheers, Harry |

The forum doesn't use Sent Items unless you specifically turn it on. Lots of people get caught out by that
