Best independent BMW Mechanics Denver/Loveland

Hi all,

Trying to plan ahead for a family member's 2010 E90 328xi. Was wondering if there are any highly recommended independent bimmer shops in Denver/Loveland area?

Also, wondering if there is anyone that does independent work on the side, a la 'Kaiv' of the west coast? To clarify, Kaiv, is a forum member that does a ton of quality work specializing in M3s out of Sand Diego. Wondering if there is someone similar in the Denver area...

Appreciate any help that isn't just me searching on Yelp

Which both look great! Thanks for the posts in other threads, guys.

Certainly open to more options

If you're up for a trip to the springs, I can help you out with just about anything you need. Coming up on 18 years experience so I have just about anything you need covered. Even if it's just bouncing ideas off of me based on someone else's diagnosis, I'm happy to help.

Been going to Nick at Yanzito for a while now. Great guy who really knows his stuff. However, he is in Parker so Paddock is going to be to closer you. Cant say much about Paddack because i have not used them but do hear their name come up quite a bit.

Really appreciate the support! Springs is far, but you never know how things work sometimes. I don't think the car will be in the Loveland area for more than a year, at which point springs might be easier.

Hey MileHigh! Been a while. Are you comfortable with electric wiring? I got this BMW Advanced Car Eye Dash Cam, it's installed but it has this "parking mode" which is not working, I created a post here - any insight?

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...1#post21774421

There's lot of threads out there but not for E90s - I think it should one of the wires should have been from "constant" power but I'm not 100% sure.

Thank you!

Can’t say enough good things about Paddock Imports. Doug, Billy and team are honest, fair and incredibly knowledgeable. I’ve been using them for 2+ years since moving to Denver and wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.

Loveland ford just hired a master bmw tech with a lot of high powered n54 builds named Shaun. Worked for Paddock in denver. Maybe try to get your car to him. Highly intelligent and very honest. If you want alegot dealership. COS BMW in loveland has done all of my specialty work with honesty and no upselling.

I consider myself in this camp now. Curious if doing performance work on my 2011 BMW 335D is even viable, 81k miles. I don't want to blow the engine up, but would love a little more power. Ideas?

just get a safe tune. if you're in northern colorado, harvey at boost creep in Longmont is a great tuner. SCR is also a great place for a safe dyno tune.

I'm in Denver. I could make the drive but then I'm semi stranded. Know any folks in the Denver area? Much appreciated.

my buddy owns Racing Trenz off Evans and Monaco. His name is Yi. His brother is the other half owner named Wayne (works the front desk). They can tune your car but you have to have a Cobb Accessport for them to do it.
