Negative ghost rider. To replace the oil filter housing gasket is 1K from Baron for the R56. That included the oil cooler gasket and new oil lines. Ask me how I know :)
I have the invoice from Baron for the work they did replacing the oil filter housing gasket and oil cooler gasket. It was under $300 for me. So that is strange. Might have to do with the different engines.
Different cars I suppose.

Back to the question, did you get a quote from anyone else?

Unless you are only talking about the parts. They cost about 300 bucks or so.
They must have misspoke when they did the work. They said oil filter housing gasket as well.

The oil cooler "gaskets" came to $211.89

Either way. They got the car done really fast and it was perfect.

I don't about the R53 but it must be different because it is an intensive job on the R56. I got the parts at almost cost and it was 200 bucks. Took me about 6 hours to complete the job. Lots of taking off parts just to get to the oil filter housing.
