Going to be picking up a 2000 BMW 528i this weekend and I'm going to need a shop to do some preventative maintenance work on it. Who do you BMW guys take your cars to? Most of the stuff I plan on doing to it, I can do myself but there are times where I feel lazy and I can afford to pay someone else to do it. Especially when it's 100 degrees outside. Thanks and numbers/addresses would be appreciated!

Or any shop thats not full of idiots would do. I've had such bad experience with shops in the area. This is the reason I started doing all the work on my own. I have a kid now so free time is getting harder and harder to find.

Yeah I dealt with RRT when I had my E36 a long ass time ago. Glad they are still around and recommended by a lot of guys on bimmerforums.

I've taken mine to RRT. They have a good reputation and reasonable labor rates.

I haven't owned a BMW in 5 years. However, when I did, I always did my service with Euro Imports in Old town Alexandria. Pete always did great work, and gave a fair price for everything done. They were a great shop to work with.

If Alexandria isn't too far I suggest Martin Motorsports. I've been taking my bimmers there for years and I worked there back in the day. Gary Martin is the owner - tell him that I sent you and he will take care of you d00d.

Thanks homey but that's a little far. I think between RRT and Funktion, I should be in good hands. Hope cali is treating you good!
