Reputable Shop in SD

Hi all,

Does anyone know any shop that works on BMWs? I am looking at HG motorsports, but I don't think they are specialized in BMWs. Let me know so I can put my car in some professionals' hand! Thank you!

While HG isnt specifically a BMW shop they are very knowledgeable, have a good staff and do good work. I would take my car there if I lived in SD.

Euro Auto Spot would be my reccomendation . They are specifically known for work done on bmws.. I prefer them in SD for sure. Bimmerspeed is also a very good shop! If you go with bimmerspeed tell them Marko with the 1 sent you!

There is some knocking sound coming from my car and my brake isn't as sensitive as before, so I want someone to take a look at that .

Midnight Oil is another option, but the others are good also

If you're in need of a person for some work done in your car, there's no one better than Kaiv, he's on bimmerpost and M3forum. He's very meticulous with his work and everyone that has their car worked on can vouch for him, including myself.

Another option is Marco Polo Independent. They're also located in La Jolla and they ONLY work with BMWs. I highly recommend them.
