Summary: I needed a part and..

Review: I needed a part and didn't want to pay less online but wait a couple days, or pay more and get it from a dealer, so I called and was given a price nearly as low as the lowest I'd found online. I installed the part and it turned out my old one was good. Upon hearing this, Chris, the owner, told me to pull my car in and he'd see what he could do. He spent about 1/2 hour, mostly after closing time, to hook my car up to a diagnostic computer, clear fault codes, listen to my symptoms and offer advice. He did this all free of charge and asked me to come back sometime so he could check further into a chronic problem (not why I was there) to see what he could do. Most dealers charge a minimum of $200 just to run the diagnostics. Finding an honest and generous mechanic, especially for BMWs, isn't always easy, so I'm glad I found one so easily. I will be back! I'll update my review after I actually have work done, but so far I'm a fan.

Reply: Thanks for the review and the kind words. It was my pleasure to help and you have a very nice E39 touring if I might add. I look forward to your next visit and until then have a good day.Chris
