Having a tough time find anyone to Walnut Blast the D

alex0180 · 10-27-2016, 03:18 PM

Im located in South Florida and every shop I've called tells me the same thing that the parts are expensive to carry and that the demand is not high enough to go out and buy it. The dealership quoted me 5k for the entire cleanup. I have 65k and its an 2011. I'm getting closer to potentially selling the car since its not worth that much to fix the carbon buildup and I'll add that I need to replace a wheel bearing and motor mounts. I also have a post in the Local Florida section to see if anyone knows of a place. If anyone local has a spot let me know please. I can possibly drive up north but thats when I throw the service engine light. Sorry for the mini rant but I love my 335d.

Thanks

Do it yourself

Axel, does your friend Lenny do this now?

Road trip to North Carolina. Bimmer Performance Center will do it for you.

Drive up to SC and I'll do it for you for much cheaper than $5k! Do it yourself for around $600 in tools and parts (if you have an air compressor). If not, budget another $500 into that.
