| - Moving sucks. It's a pain in the behind and the worst part is finding a good tailor, shoe repair, barber, and mechanic. I've only found the latter of the four since I moved to MTL a month ago...
Anyways, back to European Motorwerk. I've been here twice for 5 issues: My BMW's HID headlight died, my headlights were leaking water whenever i washed the car, the trunk leaked water during car washes, the front suspension was making increasingly weird rattling noises, and my steering was unusually stiff at certain angles.
After googling on the forums, I went to Hassan and he was very straightforwards about the work. The price was very reasonable (although parts can be a bit more expensive compared to what I'm used to paying in the US).
All the mechanical repairs were done as expected in a timely manner (next day both times), but the best part is the water leak repairs. I had mentioned the issues to my previous two mechanics in Chicago and Atlanta as well as two BMW dealers. The dealers wanted to replace the 1000 dollar headlights and the mechanics basically said well... too bad. Hassan actually was proactive about it and resealed my headlights (added a thick bead of RTV-like material around them) and also sealed up the trunk. The extra charge for this was minimal and the haven't leaked since.
The icing on the cake is that he keeps the parts he replaces off your car until you pick the care up so you can see what the issue was.
As a car person, I've found paradise. (If anyone has recommendations for the other 3 services, I'll be glad to hear it...)
