Reliable garage I can trust with a nice car?

Post by BMWHuaHin »

Hi all,

New here and appreciate the awesome content and vast information you have here on my new home.

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a reliable garage that can check out some electrics on my car. I have a BMW and my parking sensors are not working. As there is no BMW in Hua Hin I wanted a garage to take a look at it.

As per my diagnosis on the car so far - through personal checking - the sensors are in fact fine there's just an electrical connection missing somewhere.

Is there anyone reliable - who isn't going to joy ride my car or whatever when I'm not around - that could possibly help with this?

"L Garage" opposite the palace going north just before the traffic lights. K. Pichai speaks good English. :thumb:

Agree, he is a good guy and worked on a friends Alfa (he is brave to!!) - he did a top job.
Dont need to look further. (The BMW place a few sois earlier ripped me off royally 4 or so years ago - dont go there).

Thanks for the reply. I'll check that out.

I know you said to avoid the BMW garage but I'm surprised to hear that there actually is one?

As other shave said:
L Garage
Across from Palace
Just past Soi 42 on left side heading North
Khun Pichai
0863399491
Highly recommend him

May want to check out the cause. Sounds like the mice or rats have been busy eating wires while you were away.
There is another thread on this.

Thanks for all of the advice here.

Actually just waiting on BMW to verify some of my documents (it's an imported car) and then I'll get it sorted :)
