Rod bearing replcaement near Ottawa

Who here had got their rod bearing replaced in the Ottawa/Gatineau region. Where and how much did it cost? I'm thinking of going at the BMW dealer if it's not to extreme but I saw someone mentioned it's not a good idea in another thread.

I would definitely not get it done at a bmw dealer. I'd rather keep my bearings stock than do that.

Bimmershops.com usually has good indy's. Check it out

Have you considered shops out of Ottawa?

Make the trip to toronto, spend the night downtown with your girl and drop the car off at RMP motors (Rocco).

He recently did the rod bearings and engine mounts on my '11 e92

Yeah, well I called a dealer and they didn't even now what it was... oh boy. Let's check that off the list

Hmm could be a option. Never went to Toronto!

VAG performance in Laval near MTL is a good option.
