::Need to service the 330i::

[subsonique]

good day friends, i just got me a 2002 E46 330i M-Sport and would like to know where do you usually send for servicing and fixing. my regular workshop is Exquisite Marques in Sunway Damansara (near Kota D), i send all my cars there, my E92, E30, GTI and Q5. i just wanna try other workshop for the E46 without getting slaughtered. among things that i wanna do:1. gear box oil change2. suspension check up/change3. changing brake pads/upgrade to BBK

Congrats on the 330i! Must be one helluva ride.

Check out the workshop thread in the general discussion. Many frequent a few workshops around Klang Valley and some swore by them due to their good experiences with the foreman.

I've visited Optimum in Kayu Ara, M-speed in USJ and few others. All seems alright to me.

Had a 330 too last time and i also sent to Optimum, good experience and fair price. Only issue with them is the service might be slow if they have a lot of customers but i guess that will be an issue with most busy workshops i guess.

Same wheel as mine but the tires look thicker. What are they running on? Staggered set? Love the color too!

Guess a few of us live in the same area to frequent Optimum! I guess it's because they are fair with their pricing and would only recommend replacement of parts only when necessary. Also can work within budget e.g. ori or oem or 2nd hand parts. Do find the place too busy nowadays compared with a few years ago.

On another note i miss my 330

Ya man! put coils, sways, and links on your 335 ler to improve handling!

I know what you saying test drove a stock 335 and the ride is too floaty for the power it has.

330 is just a good balance of power and comfort but a good performer in handling.

Sorry thread starter hijack your thread a bit
