Best after warranty BMW shop in the GTA

BMWCOUPE · 04-08-2014, 12:34 AM

Hey,

I'm in the Toronto/GTA area and my car has recently gone out of warranty. I'm looking for a reputable shop that specializes in BMW and charges a fair price. Can anyone recommend any good shops?

I hear good things about RMP Motors. I'm going in for my first visit tomorrow.

Thanks for the reply, Looked up some good reviews and checked some other BMW forums and they look pretty solid. Will most likely take my car their this week.

RMP = great team, fair $, quick service.

Hey guys!

So just checking in for an update of my first experience at RMP.

I dealt with Rocco, today... Twice actually lol.

First I went in for my general checkup appointment and explained that my car has had the CEL come in a few days after my purchase and it was related to the DMTL pump. Rocco has explained to me that sometimes it's either the wiring and/or the pump itself, and they did in fact find one of the wires to be damaged so he offered to fix it up for a total price of $100, 80(check up) + 20 (wire fix) which was very reasonable from my end.

Anyways on my way home I stopped by Pet Smart and upon starting the car again I got the CEL again and immediately called Rocco to see if I could come back and have him take a look at it. He told me to come back.

Long story short, he replaced my DMTL pump with a spare one they had sitting at the shop at no cost.

Overall it was a very good first experience, and I am very pleased with their service! Which was also very quick

My 2cents.

I had a similar issue with my old car, and it was actually the charcoal canister...and not the pump, although my pump was changed and the CEL still came up like yours not long after...the shop was NOT RMP that repaired the vehicle...

RMP is well known - its far considering they work only weekdays.

Is Kosta KTM good for servicing? I need to get servicing done for:

Rear Differential, Power Steering, and Coolant

Look nowhere else but Stance Factory in Ajax. I live in north Brampton and I drive 50 minutes and take the 407 ($$$) out to them for even just oil changes. It would be cheaper to have it done at the dealer. Why do I do this? Simple: they are a straight forward and honest shop - something that cannot be said for the majority of other big name GTA independents...

RMP is my favorite by far. They know their stuff and never throw your money at problems unnecessarily. Highly recommended.
