Edit by Moderator: Sorry Stephane, but a post like the one you had here is not allowed as it is considered an advertisement on our forums. Free advertisement by you would not be fair to those businesses that have paid to advertise here on BF.C.

If you would like to become our local Mid-Atlantic Regional Forum Vendors (which would be great), please go here: http://www.bimmerforums.com/advertise.cfm to find out more information regarding advertisement packages.

Thank you for understanding.

No it's totally ok Stephane, you're new here

Guys, if you need anything fixed on your car, give me a call. Make sure to call your insurance company beforehand and get FULL COVERAGE, we're talking the whole nine yards, before you let me lay a finger on your car. Trust me, you'll thank me afterwards.

I guess this is kinda on the topic, i dont know if you read the thread that Poke2120 and I posted about my M50 manifold gone wrong. I not you could find it here... http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...47#post2946447
But to get the M50 swap done and to fix what got fucked up, which we dont know what it was during the install process we were going to trail my car to Pro iImports in Gaithersburg, im not to familier with that shop. Would that be a good decision or not? Any other ideas that may be better? Thanks guys.

Okay so I sorta got an answer for this place.
I called to ask them about doing a fluid change & joke about trying to do an Inspection 1 "on the cheap".
The person on the phone said, "I really don't want you as a customer...you better find some1 else."

Okay...1st impression are everything esp in business.

[potomac]

their response was a good thing dude.

Does anyone know the name of the mechanic who opened shop in catonsville and has worked with BMWs for over 20 years? The shop is real close to me and I'm thinking of getting some work done with him. I know he opened the shop earlier this year so where was he before then? Any info on him would be nice. Thanks!

[nitty]

Any good shops in or around the Vienna/McLean area? I've heard good things about Auto Advantage in Manassas but I'd like to find something closer if I can.

I predict they're already out of business.

[Steph@exclu]

Wow I surprised that a shop would say something like that.

Anyone know of any good shops in the Charlottesvilla VA area?

Would like to know as well...Charlottesville is quite a bit closer to me than most of the shops listed in MD.

Okay, I need some warranty work done correctly & the warranty denied because they assumed I perpetrated it.

Any local DC Area dealers ppl have had good experiences from?

Thanks
