What this job should cost near you Draft, under review
335i xDrive
xDrive: BMW warranty labor time 3.1 hrs. Genuine MSRP left 22116856403 $186.10 + right 22116787668 $457.79 = $643.89 (BMW Parts Deal; sale $135.92 + $331.51). Hours: BMW warranty labor time, 335i xDrive, both engine mounts
Labor rates: national medians of 12 reported BMW dealer rates ($255/hr) and 11 independent BMW-shop rates ($175/hr).
How these estimates work
Dealers look up BMW's own warranty labor time for the job, then for customer-pay work most multiply it by about 1.5 to 2, and charge their hourly rate. Genuine BMW parts are typically marked up 20–40% over BMW list price. So: warranty hours × 1.5–2 × local dealer rate + (genuine list price × 1.2–1.4). (source, source)
Independent shops usually quote straight from a commercial labor guide (Mitchell or ALLDATA), with no multiplier. So: labor-guide hours × local independent rate + parts.
Local rates come from labor rates people have reported for BMW dealers and BMW indie shops in your area. Where we have no report, the national median is scaled by how much auto technicians earn in your state or metro (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). Those rates are marked "estimated." Tax, shop fees, fluids and diagnosis aren't included.
BMW warranty time: 2.9 hrs — BMW warranty labor time, 335i RWD, both engine mounts
Mitchell/ALLDATA time: not found. Mitchell/ALLDATA time not found publicly. Indie estimate uses warranty hours x 1.0–1.2.
Dealer parts list basis: Genuine MSRP, RWD: left 22116787659 $186.10 + right 22116855460 $186.10 = $372.20; markup 1.2–1.4× (Typical BMW dealer parts markup of 20–40% over list).
Parts: Genuine L 22116787659 / R 22116855460 MSRP $186.10 each, sale $135.92 (BMW Parts Deal).
