I used these guys the other day to help with a sticking calliper. They were happy to talk about my M3 all day, asked how i was getting on the the SMG etc.

Friend also used them for an Inspection II and was very happy.

Prices are good too. Apparently the Master Mechanic from the local BWM dealer set up on his own.

They are just outside York.

Where in the North West?

In Liverpool I've been recommended Field Lane for BMW requirements.

I know lots that are fine with run-of-the-mill BMWs, but not so good at anything M-specific (i.e. they can still do the stuff that's common to M and non-M versions, but don't/can't reset/measure/diagnose certain M-only bits).

I used them for Inspection II and a brake fluid service on my e46 M3. Really good guys, and really pleased with the service etc.

Put it this way BMW wanted c£1000 for Inspection II, I rang another BMW specialist near York and was quoted c£450, asked what was involved (to check they were legit) and was told I'd get a call back. Never happened. Called Autohaus who I think quoted c£700 asked the same question and got what can only described as a comprehensive overview of the entire service - Which for someone mechanically sypathetic (and in love with said car) was brilliant.
