I have done 4 wheel bearings, brakes, oil pan, timing cover gaskets, electric fan, plugs, fuel filter, control arms, sway bar endlinks, bushings, tires, shocks/struts and a few other things I'm forgetting for maybe a couple grand over the past few months, doing the labor myself. The only big ticket items I'm going to run into are the timing chain (~$700 for parts) and the rear diff (used ones go for ~$350). This is a '91 318is 4cyl, a.k.a. "poor man's M3".
