My Ride: 2005 BMW 545i, Titanium Silver. Bridgestone 760s on Weds Bavaria II 18" wheels, standard sport pack size. Sport, AT. Latest job - NGK Iridium IX plugs installed.
Hey Houston Area Members past and present,
I'm getting near 100k miles and need to take my car in, I guess for Service II. My car is used 2005 545i with no warranty. I've done oil changes, brake linings and will do my spark plugs myself, but there's a limit to my time, tools, space and skill, as well as funds.
I'm thinking of taking my car to Bemer, I've seen them for years down Richmond Avenue but don't have any dealings with them. All I know is that someone I worked with took his 325i there numbers of times, about 15 years ago.
Normally I'd take my car to C&C Northside, but it's a bit of a drive to get out there.
If you have had personal experience with Bemer, or have heard from family/friends that have, please relate your experience here.
thanks,
k. tsukihashi

How about a different indy service shop in Southwest Houston or inner west loop?

Ask for Fernando, tell him you were referred by a friend of Jason's with the black 550i. My friend said he specializes in BMW's. He also charges 1/3 of what the dealers charge.
