Looking for a recommendation

marinmcgreevy · 05-25-2020, 07:21 PM

Hi all,

I have moved back yo the Bay Area from rural Mississippi and need to find a good repair shop in the Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon area. I have a 07 335 and need to have a walnut shell blast done, turbo oil lines replaced, and have the serpentine belt and rollers replaced. I am the original owner and the car had 134kmi.

Thanks

Welcome back to the Bay! I dont know any shops in the Dublin area but if you are okay with traveling I highly reccomend Akin's Auto Repair. They are in San Jose and have very reasonable prices.

Performance Dynamic in Santa Clara, worth the drive for sure.

I'm nowhere near the Bay but by searching on Yelp, Performance Autowerk in Dublin, Sas German Auto in Pleasanton, Bavarian Professionals in West Berkeley.

VT Motorworks in Pleasanton. Love these guys!

Thank you all for the recommendations! I have not driven or seen my 335 since the first week of March. I am looking forward to getting it home and driving it soon.

I highly recommend Wolfgang's Foreign Car Service in Walnut Creek. Great service, family owned, and honest.

Did a PPI here - after 5 minutes, they told me to run from a potential car purchase since it had hidden body damage. No charge.
