New owner from Dubai

Hi

I'm from Dubai and recently purchased a 2013 c63 with 7000km on the clock from a private dealer, I've had to take it into Mercedes in Abu Dhabi as there was some constant noise coming from the engine at 120km and passenger side wheel area. there telling me the wheel bearing has gone an I need to replace both at a cost of 6000 aed (1600$) does this amount sound right?

I have no idea on what sort of costs I should be paying.

Any advice is appreciated.

Apart from that I love the car, I ame from an Audi s3 and my god what a difference!!

Z

The car is a Canadian import and I belive was involved in some sort of accident causing damage to front end (although the vehicle check came back all clear).

6000 just seems a bit high to change both the front bearings...
