Recent purchase

lenrok · 03-08-2019, 10:00 PM

Fellas, new to the forums. Recently picked up a 09 E90 6 spd Slick top Alpine white. Two owner car with full service history. It's currently sitting at 98k miles

I have a laundry list of things I plan for it. Rod Bearing service is at the top. I'm in South Jersey, Cherry Hill area.

I've done some research on local shops. Came across VAC Motorsports. They gave me a decent quote, anyone have any feedback on them?

Congrats on the new ride! Awesome that even after 11 years only 2 owners! Vac has been around a long time and have been a great shop that we love working with. If you have any questions or concerns about the bearing job we would be more then happy to help if you wanted to take a trip up to us as well!

VAC is about 20 mins or so from me. I'm in NNJ often. I'm originally from NYC

Congrats on the ride! If you're up in our area feel free to come by and check the shop out. You'd be hard pressed to find another shop in the country that's done as many rod bearings as we have, but VAC is by no means slouch in the engine department for M cars and have been doing so for years..great group of knowledgeable guys over there.
