That’s A LOT of work. To do the rod bearings the subframe has to be dropped. To do the valve stem seals you have to remove a ton of stuff. And they’re two totally separate jobs, so no labor savings. Not sure it’s $7500 worth of labor and parts, but knowing just rod bearings on an e92 M3 are usually around $2500-3000 and taking the top off of an S63 is way more work than that it doesn’t seem too far fetched. I was quoted $3000 for just valve gaskets on my N63TU, and there’s significantly more labor involved in just getting to the valve covers on the S63TU due to needing to remove the turbos and then also replacing the valve seals.
