I use Strictly BMW in Bellevue (near Bellevue BMW), and Eastside Bavarian in Issaquah. Both great shops, and $50/hour cheaper than Bellevue BMW. There's a place in Auburn (Auburn Foreign Repair IIRC) that my brother has used. |

IS Garage in Kent... Ian is the man and will take good care of you.
http://www.isgaragellc.com/ Avoid BMW Northwest (Tacoma/ Fife ). I've had a horrible fucking experience there. |

Vouch for I.S Garage. Went there when they were still in Renton, Ian gave me a ride to the Landing to kill time and picked me back up when he was done. Superb service

Hey all, on a related front, looking for a shop actually in Seattle, anyone use import doctors or fat city?
BMW Seattle quoted me like 4k for some oil filter gasket and something else.... Thoughts? Anyone use BMW Meister from Facebook, is he reputable? |

What do you need done besides that filter housing gasket? That job is easy as pie. I'd do it for a tiny fraction of that.

Chekc out DMI auto care. Dmitri is great with fair prices. He used to work at the dealership and very recently opened his own shop so he's very well versed with our cars

I highly advise using the LiquiMoly synthetics. I've run it in multiple cars/platforms and I have been amazed at how good it is compared to the usual suspects.

Eric's import and domestic in white center area.
Very fair prices and good quality work. They work fast and get you in and out other than some places that try to milk the hours. If you go there tell them someone with a red 335i transferred you! They have done so much work to my car! I have had my fair share of indie shops and no one seems to beat their prices and quality of work. If you want turbos installed, down pipes, oil leak issues etc.. I would recommend them
