Any good Indy BMW service shops in NNJ area(Morristown)?

mik_82 · 03-17-2011, 11:47 AM

I need to get an alignment and replace the automatic transmission pan gasket for my e90 330i and the dealership is asking around $600 for it. Can some one recommend any good indy shops in the Morristown/NNJ area that can work on these issues on a bmw.

mik_82 · 03-17-2011, 09:27 PM

Anyone?

Can't help you... but were you on the E60 forums with a 04 E60?

mik_82 · 03-17-2011, 09:41 PM

Yup, i got rid of it and got an E90 06 330i....

Is it Shadetree Garage?

fnckr · 03-18-2011, 07:31 AM

Shadetree Garage is awesome! They host several BMWCCA meetings and are used by many members.

mik_82 · 03-18-2011, 10:30 AM

^^ I have used Shadetree in the past with my E60 and they were pretty decent, just wondering if there are more options for service in the NNJ area.

theres a place in rockaway on rt46 by the advance auto part store, ive never been there but i always see a lot of european cars there

MusclezMarinara · 03-18-2011, 01:38 PM

i think AK is down there

mik_82 · 03-18-2011, 03:02 PM

^^Do they do service too?

ShadeTree Garage in Morristown or Eurosport in Westfield.

ShadeTree folks are nice to deal with and will get things done, Eurosport guys will also go the extra mile and work with you on complex problems

I've also done alignments at Eurotire (somewhere on RT46) but I wasn't happy with their service the last couple of visits.

jbr5049 · 03-18-2011, 08:42 PM

I know there is a dinan install shop in the area, id google it and see if you can find them. They might be able to undercut Motown, but if not open road bmw is a pretty good option.

mik_82 · 03-18-2011, 08:49 PM

Thanks everyone for all the inputs, i have received quite a few leads and i will explore all of the options...

tommy23g · 03-21-2011, 06:33 PM

itsbrokeagain · 03-21-2011, 07:58 PM

Why not use AutoCouture? They are in NNJ, in Hillsdale.

That sucks...my family has bought multiple cars from them and service is always great.

I even got my car updated and alarm activated for free.

Check out pinnacle Motor works in sterling nj...a bit high for hourly rate but the owner is a great guy...his name escapes me right now.

Edit: lol Tom just realized that was you....what did they screw you over on?
