Anyone recommend a non-dealer auto shop that is competent with bimmers in mid-northern New JErsey or NEw York City (Queens)?

I'm afraid to take it into the dealership and be robbed blind?

I use Europcar in Morristown. They are priced fair and always have done good work for me. It is two guys, Gary and Ron. Here's the number, (973) 267-8080. They are right past High Marques if you know where that is.

other option is J&R located in Little Ferry NJ .. small indy shop .. great guys .. might be a drive for you !

They are located at 386 Liberty St, Little Ferry NJ 07643 201-229-0404 .. ask for John or Rocco .. tell them Tom sent you ..

They just replaced my starter ..

Thanks to all for your suggestions; I'll have to take it in soon.

Thank you! I wound up taking it to Europcar -- Ron and Gary (whoever actually worked on my car) were good.
