Service centers in western suburbs

Curious if anyone had recommended service centers out here in the western burbs? Kind of getting tired of the dealer having their way with me!

Any responses or new finds since you posted this? I'm also looking for someone who's familiar with working on MINIs who's NOT the dealership.

Right now I'm considering going to Euro Shop in Lake Villa which is really far away but I've heard good things. @ernesto I wouldn't mind the name of your guy too as a backup.

I've been using Import Service Center for both my MINIs and other cars for many many years.

Looks like Euro Shop announced that they were closing a few days ago.

Hi Doug, I'm curious if you found any favorite places since you posted? If & when my F55 throws a code or needs a mod/tweak, I plan to check out Euroquipe.com. They're out in St. Charles near the DuPage airport. It's gotta have better prices than the dealer! - Doug L. (Wheaton)

What I found, is that a lot of places can service these cars. A local place out by me called Gear Head has been able to help and Euroquipe sounds promising and strangely enough probably near EP3.
