Hi there fanatics

I purchased my E46 325i 2003 in the year 2009. It has 216k on the clock, and never skipped a service. Replaced power steering, front suspensions, cooling system in 2010. Now cerpentine belt came off, and the coolant leaked. Power steering stopped, aircon stopped, engine overheated. Decided to take it to dealership. Here is the Damage:

I just Been reading some threads, where its been suggested all the above can be done for R3200! Can someone help me get a cheaper option? Im tired of spending my savings when things could be cheaper. :thumbs:

Looks mostly like cooling system.

Belts and tensioners, waterpump, expansion tank can be all had at goldwagen at far cheaper prices. Radiator can get from Silverton. Also check out www.g-drive.co.za and http://www.onlinecarparts.co.za/.

Then, get someone to help you DIY.
