I have to get some work done on my 2005 545, oil change, as well as thermostat replaced, I was wondering if anyone knows of a reputable place in the Northern VA area I can take my car. I know the dealer will charge me $200 which if that is what I have to pay so be it, but just looking for some options. The thermostat getting replaced as well as the emissions and one more recommended thing is going to set me back $2300. I am not thrilled about that which is why I am looking around for any shops in the Northern VA area that are less expensive than the BMW dealerships around me. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

 

I guess everyone just does there own maintenance then in Northern VA, since nobody replied.
