Hey all just got relocated from San Diego and wanted some advice on who should work on my ti here. I live on the west side of town close to Oak Park and work out in the burbs. Any and all advice is appreciated as I have never "Winterized" a car before.

thanks

Hey Matt, welcome! I heard Ben thongsai is a Bmw legend.. Alot of people talk about him on bimmerforums and he is pretty respected; I got my car serviced by him as well. I know he is located in maywood but I dont remember his exact address. I'll try to find out his address for you if you'd like.

A&L autobody for any type of paint or body work. There are a few shops in Chicago that specialize in BMW.

Give www.ChiTownM.com a look see. There are a few recommended on that forum.

www.EuroTeknik.com is also a really good local website, includes all BMW's, AUDI's, and VW's.

I order parts through Knauz BMW in Lake Bluff.

You get a discount if you are a BMW CCA member.

Ask for Dave the parts manager - super nice guy.
