2006 Z4 3.0i  [7.00]
I finally found a mechanic who would repair mine (2006 3.0i). The dealer wanted about $2400. The dealer 'examined' it and said that the entire top would have to be removed to inspect further. I eventually found a BMW mechanic who did it at my house and I replaced the pump. It wasn't corroded but I didn't want to reinstall the top and find it was bad. It's a pain in the a** job as you have to squeeze into the trunk to get it out. I don't think it is a favorite job for a mechanic. I would up paying about half of the dealer cost. The job was way beyond my skill set so I didn't want to take a chance on making it worse. Shipkiller's video is the best around.
