    Shop Recommendations

    Hey all, new member and new owner here
    I recently bought a 91 M5 with 225k on it.
    However, recently I have ran into some engine trouble due to a head gasket that was not sealing to the timing cover and causing a massive oil leak.

    I decided it would be beat to rebuild the whole head while i had it off

    Does anyone have any recommendations for good shops the New Orleans area?? Possibly even Houston, id be willing to drive if it meant the work got done properly

    shop for what? Service on your E34 M5? Post it here in the regional forums, but better mention a zip code or city, https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/f...ons-amp-Events

    With 225k on it you may need more than that depending on how hard it was run. Mine was trashed at 150k.
