Recommended mechanic in gta

beppy · 03-05-2011, 09:29 AM

Hi I live in markham. I have a 2006 325i and my service vehicle inspection like has gone off. I have 95km.

Called dealership said means I need inspection ($175) and may need to do brake changes ($600).

I read somewhere on this forum that this service
Interval probably means I need brake fluid flush, coolant flush, some type of other flush that can cost up to $1500!!!!

Just wondering if I need to go to dealership for this or if I am do this service at a mechanic for significantly less.

Thanks

Steve and his crew at Bavarian Motors (Woodbine and 407) are excellent. They only do BMW work, and Steve knows them inside out.

+1 for Eurotech. They came highly recommended 10 years ago. I've personally used them for years. I've also sent many customers their way who have become loyal customers themselves.
