Just a self-plug: I offer various services for BMW folks around the DMV at very discounted rates. I'm primarily known by the E90/92 crowd, but have worked on everything under the sun. PM me for any requests.

Anybody has experience or has heard about European Service Center on Rhode Island Av. in NE DC ? They work on BMWs, Minis and MBs. They opened in 2011. Sometimes schlepping all the way to Rockville or Fairfax is just not convenient. Or any other shop in DC or Bethesda/Silver Spring ?

Did you ask for a breakdown of how they came up with that number? If all they are doing is the labor and not doing any parts I can't imagine it would be that much in labor. Are they including an alignment after finishing up too?
I've had really good luck with Bookman Motorworks. Joe is a really nice guy and helped us a lot when my girlfriends transmission took a dump in her 2006 530i.

Any experience with any machine shops around this area ? Looking to get my head and block decked for my M50 turbo build. Thanks.
Yes, Burtonsville Performance Machine. They cleaned, pressure tested, and did a clean up cut on my 535i (M30) head 2 years ago. Recommended by Dave Toy at Autowerke.

Hi everyone.
I thought i'd check in and see if there is a consensus on good shops in the Baltimore area. My son will be heading out to Towson University and will be taking the beamer with him so I'm looking for some good leads in case he needs service.
Thanks in advance
