I would recommend RiteWay Auto in Plainfield, NJ 900 Rt. 22 East Plainview, NJ 07060 Ask for Asif and tell him Tom with the Black X5 sent you. He does work for the BMW dealerships in the area when they are backed up. He just did my rear brakes; rotors, pads and sensors for a ridiculously low price. 735-543-4449 [email protected]

I live a mile out from Bay Diagnostics. IMO, I would go to BimmberClinic for maint. if distance is withing reason....Bill's a gentleman and VERY FAIR

If you're looking for a good shop in Queens, you should give Impressive Auto Center a shot. They worked on my E53, did a great job diagnosing what was wrong and low labor rates :: IMPRESSIVE :: AUTO :: CENTER ::

There's particular service i request for the X5 every winter/summer.

Winter involves:
-installing winter wheels with rear spacers and the necessary work it requires, i.e. balance, align.
-general prep for northeast winter; hoses, fluids, wipers, and inspection

Summer involves:
-installing summer tires and any necessary work
-general inspection and maintenance

I believe that if one properly maintains their car or fleet...the favor will be returned and they'll give you little to no headaches.

I have an E46 and asked around on e46fanatics. I also live in Maspeth, so it turned out to be even more convenient, plus they are right off the L.I.E at the Maurice Avenue exit. Wish I would have known about them 2 years ago when my e46 took a crap. They have the right equipment to work on any BMW though. My experience with them was good, so it doesn't hurt to give them a call if you're looking for a different indy shop.

Just updating this thread because The guys at M-Spec (adam, Eddie, and Jesse) have been taking awesome care of my X for the past two years. They are fair with their prices, will work with you given your budget and needs vs. desires and they have a brand new shop/location as well. They worked with my Warranty Direct policy and helped to get stuff covered that normally wouldnt get covered.

Their address is 69-80 73rd Place Middle Village NY 11379 in Queens (ALMOST Brooklyn), email address is [email protected] and their phone number is (718) 386-2790.
