Anyone know of a good shop for oil change in San Diego.

Just like the title says.. I want to do an oil change every 6K miles or so and looking for a good shop.

I was looking at www.euroautospot.com but not sure at this point. Can anyone recommend me?

Thanks

Euroautospot is the only place I would trust to take my car. They are the only ones that utilizes the factory machines whereas a majority of other independent shops such as bimmerdoc will use the generic one. Ask bimmerdoc if they have the GT1 specifically used at the dealerships...I think not. Euroautospot also has a trained master tech that was trained from bmw not no mickey mouse guy that works on all cars.

Euroautospot uses factory parts from bmw themselves, bimmerdoc..well I can't comment on that as I heard some things about them using the generic stuff.

It also helps that the master tech has over 10 years of experience as well.

He's only asking about an oil change.

I go to Furgerson's garage in Encinitas. They aren't BMW specialists, but they do a fine job with the oil change.
