I bought a 650i BMW motor for around $4600.00. I was told that the motor had been inspected and that it was in excellent condition. The motor arrived on time. My mechanic installed the motor for $2,000. After installation , the motor was smoking. Took the motor to the BMW for diagnostic. They found out that the vanos solenoid was bad . I hade it replaced for $3200. Sent the bill to Jask. They claimed that this is not a part of the block and head warranty . Now mind you, the motor still smokes. Had it diagnosed by 2 BMW mechanics. The valve seals are bad. Estimated cost $ 9000. A Jask rep was on the phone 3 way with BMW and myself. Jask rep told BMW to sent the estimate to them. Now they are saying that the valves are covered by the warranty. So , Jask wants me pay a mechanic $2000 to ship it back to them for them to keep my motor, charge me a 25% restock fee and reimburse the difference to me. So , I spent $4600 for the motor, $2000 for installation, $3200 to replace the vanity solenoid, that’s nearly $ 10,000 dollars that I have spent on this motor. Jask is only suggesting that I pay another $2000 for the mechanic to pull the motor sent it back to them they charge me 25% stock fee then give me the balance. This is a crazy rip off. I ask to drive the car to them and they can check the motor themselves but they declined.
