Usually back ordered. It took about 6 weeks to get mine.

I'm hoping to. I was about to buy one last week and now I see this really puts me off. I think I'l wait until it's not leaking enough to do check engine misfires yet.

Got my 12s (used) for $500 with ~5,000 miles on them. Car runs great, but I ended up paying $400 for programming, which feels like a bit of a ripoff. I mentioned I wasn't thrilled, but supposedly it takes them three hours to do (lol!).

LOL!! $400... sorry man but they saw you coming. It took me all of like 4-5 minutes with my Autel MK 808 scan tool. Coincidentally my Autel MK 808 cost about that $400 and I got a scan tool that I can use in the future.

Are there any viable alternatives? It's insane the pricing now, and I need a new set.....
It's so surprising how there aren't any(quality) alternatives other then OEM BMW at this point considering they are always seemingly failing. |

Yeah not too happy--when I went to pick it up I told them it should only take 15 minutes and that I wasn't happy about it, but the guy at the desk insisted it takes a few hours. Surprised because it's a Bosch-certified shop and has great reviews... guess I can write a bad one. I called the BMW dealer and they quoted low-$300s (which is still probably a rip-off... should have put the money toward a wayward Windows device and INPA!). Surprised too because I spent a while talking with the guy at the counter about N54s, so it was clear I had ~some~ knowledge. Worthy of writing a bad review? Don't like to do it, but think I may in this case.

But like the fact it costs more than the dealer and it's a indy? How?? I'm sure your shop prides itself as being cheaper than the dealer? If they then refuse that, that's when I'd do the bad review. |

Sorry we are sort of beating a dead horse here, but always pisses me off when shops take advantage of people. |

FCP Is Screwing People Over
I bought a set of index 12 injectors in December, 2017 and the list price was $786.99.
There is zero chance that their costs have gone up 300% in 4 years. FCP Euro is simply gouging the fuck out of people. |
