How to buy Dahler exhaust

aussieintexas · 11-18-2024, 01:22 PM

Appreciate any help. Not finding it the easiest to deal with. Dahler seems to prefer you deal with US dealers - but it seems the dealers don’t have stock and still want to charge $650 for shipping from Europe and a markup so why not just purchase direct - anyone had experience?
Looking at getting the Stage 2 exhaust for X5 M60 and the engine performance tuning.
Thanks in advance.

I've had direct communications with Dahler about two years ago when I was looking to purchase. They advised me that Kies and maybe one another US retailer are the only authorized dealers for their product. They would not sell to me directly. Best of luck in your search!

This has been the sucky part . No stock in the US when I've asked.

I called and asked about it back in October and was told they won't have any in stock until the new year.

I was told the same via email.

Add 650 for shipping and customs duty/ tax on arrival.

Whats the point of having a US dealer with no stock and also passing the duty/ tax to the customer.

Sounds like you should wait for the Valvetronic version to release.
