Baby needs some TLC, who's best to do work?
 
The old girl needs a bit of TCL (two rear springs) before being tucked up for the winter and a basic check round to see if there is anything else that may need doing.

She has full BMW warranty so will need to be a dealer. Could take her to the local Dick Lovett in swindon but want to make sure that the dealer knows what they are looking at and knows what to check incase any other work should be done (paying for warranty may as well get the most for my money :whistle:).

Any recommendations?

I use Cotswold Cheltenham and they look after mine very well for service. Always been very good, keep you well informed and do reduced labour rates for older M cars.:thumbs:

Just turn the phone volume down when you ring the girl on the desk! Most annoying, shriekiest voice ever!:hahaha:

rear springs are a 10 minute job,

tools needed..... trolley jack, 18mm socket, breaker bar.

Do them yourself save some pennies, then get a reputable specialist check it over before its winter hibernation.

Thanks gents, Lawsy would do it myself but since got Warranty will get dealer to do it.
