Diesel service?

mmbv1000 · 03-21-2017, 10:14 PM

Kind of an odd request for this forum, but I didn't see any regionals in the X5 forum and seems that people are more active here anyway....

I have an e70 X5d and want to be able to take it to a reputable shop outside of the dealership. Any suggestions? I typically take my m3 to Group 2 and Prova Motorsports (Chris Benny) but they don't have much experience with diesels.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!

Have you tried Strictly BMW in Bellevue?

^ Yah I was going to mentioned Strictly as well, though on a few repairs for my old E46, they were no cheaper than BMW Seattle for the exact same jobs.

Also, I should have mentioned, a lot of people have high regard for Eastside Bavarian in Issaquah. I haven't used them, and they might be outta your way a bit, but I know a lot of local BMW owners who swear by that place.
