Anyone know of a good BMW specialist in edinburgh who would be willing to have a look at my E36 compact for a decent hourly rate. i have a clunking coming from the rear end when pulling away and going over (some bumps). And before you start guys - an E36compact DOES NOT have trailing arm bushes like a normal E36, so it isn't these. I don't want to pay the £75 an hour labour rates that Dunedin want as i suspect that there only gona tell me I have a lot more £'s to spend to fix the problem. |

There are only two places in Edinburgh I would personally consider taking my BM if the dealers are to be avoided: 1. Autowerke, Gorgie Road. 2. Witherspoons, up by Ravelston Dykes/Gallery of Modern Art. I would speak to Autowerke first and get them to give you a steer on "problem evaluation" costs. -------------
