Good place for service in Bay Area

REV1 · 03-06-2015, 02:27 PM

Any have recommendations for a good independent shop for general maintenance?
(besides Performance Technic who hasn't returned my call for 3 days)
Any in East Bay even better..

Thanks

I just had some maintenance done there last week. Try calling a few times until you get someone. Once I got through, everything was easy and they were great to deal with.

^ I called and got thru this time.

Thanks

Performance technic maintains and works on both my cars. Awesome shop. Glad you got through. They can be pretty busy at times.

Speedelement is a good shop! I think their a vendor as well.

pooyab · 03-13-2015, 02:08 AM

How are the prices at performance technic?
I know things for this car aren't cheap and if it is then it's the wrong shop, but just want to get an idea of maintenance type stuff and installations. Closest shop to me that I trust is Alekshop.

PM me if you need any BMW aftermarket or OEM work done. We are authorized dealers for ESS, BBS, Akrapovic, KW and many other brands along with our in house custom built products. Wheel mount and balancing is also available in house along with alignment.

dj_dub · 03-20-2015, 09:46 PM

PTech all day...or do the work yourself.

duk · 03-21-2015, 02:43 PM

Alekshop is good too, try them

Getting my eisenmann race exhaust installed by ptech this Tuesday, but have been getting general maintenance done by EDGE Motorworks also in Dublin next to Ptech.
