e90 335d SCR Prices Doubled?!

kaze0025 · 07-22-2023, 01:32 PM

What is going on with SCR prices? My SCR has been finally diagnosed as bad after a lot of testing. When I looked at SCR Cat prices in May, they were 1200-1500. now they are 2500+ 45 days later with MSRP of 3k+. Previous MSRP was around $1600.

I live in Commiefornia...otherwise I would be exploring other options...

Buy used. Lots of guys who have deleted will just rip them out and replace with mid pipes.

+1 ^.
Last year I needed SCR pump (delivery unit) - fellow forum member sent me by far more parts than I needed practically for the shipping cost.

To further save on shipping, you should be able to get front section only and weld or clamp it to exiting piping

post in for-sale with WTB prefix.

many members have unused parts stored in their garages, but not always have it listed

I have parts "saved" that I "may" use in the future, but in reality they just collecting dust and filling garage space ....

Fleebay or a Pick-N-Pull yard? Also agree with posting on the for-sale section. Just be careful of scammers!

Odd they don't sell them, nothing inside them is actually worth anything. But a junkyard probably has no idea.
