Vehicle Tips
According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
-
Vehicle Tips
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
-
Vehicle Tips
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
-
Vehicle Tips
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
-
Vehicle Tips
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
-
Vehicle Tips
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
-
Vehicle Tips
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
-
Vehicle Tips
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
-
Vehicle Tips
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
-
Vehicle Tips
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
-
Vehicle Tips
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
-
Vehicle Tips
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
-
Vehicle Tips
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
-
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Reviews and comments from our satisfied customers
-
Thank you for the fast service and top notch work. Scott thank you for the work put in. Josh the communication was great on what needed to be done.
-Brandi I. -
I have known Josh now for some years now. I don't trust just anyone with my car but I have no concerns taking my BMWs to be serviced by him. He is up front and honest; this means a lot. I live about 55 miles from this shop and pass quite a few to get there but in the end, it's worth it.
-Anthony B. -
Lindsey Bimmer (and now European Auto Repair) has always been really good to us, even when the repair bill has been high, they've been honest about what was wrong and why, and why it was worth doing something more while it was all open. I highly recommend them.
-Dave B. -
Fantastic service and great prices - No other place you should take an out of warranty BMW. I can't say enough good things about them.
-Greg F. -
Excellent Service from the entire Crew! Josh is Professional and Knowledgeable and Trustworthy. Lindsey Bimmer is our New Auto Service place. Thank you for making me feel at home. ( and I brought in my Jaguar!)
-Claudia G. -
Josh replaced a rear door window motor and replaced a window strip for under $475, and he had me on my way in 30 minutes. The window motor repair alone would have cost the same price at the dealer. You've read the reviews and it's no coincidence why Lindsey Bimmer European Auto Repair are so highly regarded. Thank you, Josh...it was a pleasure.
-Neal C. -
Top notch service. Even gave me a loaner to drive while vehicle had work done. Came in under what was quoted and my BMW is driving happy again. Wont ever take my BMW any where else.
-Cindy F. -
I've used them several times now, and am never sorry that I did. Josh knows BMWs He also knows how to run a good clean honest business. I wouldn't use anyone else for my Bimmer. Wish I had someone that dependable for my other vehicles!

-Aileen P. -
Lindsey Bimmer Service is great! Josh is a great BMW service man. Wonderful place to take your BMW. I took my E39 and E60 there for all the work.
-John F. -
I've been coming to Josh for over a year now for my 2007 BMW 335i. He's always been responsive, honest and never pressured to force any unnecessary repairs. As a Realtor who virtually lives out of my car, it's refreshing to find someone in the service business who looks out for his clients and their pocketbooks, too. Just call him.
-Mark S. -
I've been using Josh for 6 years now. He works on my E90 and E30. Great work, great rates, integrity, professional, capable, what more could you ask for? Plus, he's a hell of a guy! I refer all my fellow Bimmer owners to him.
-Carl N. -
Top notch auto and customer service! I highly recommend taking your BMW to Lindsey Bimmer Service.I cannot say enough good things about Josh and his business. A truly honest guy that will shoot you straight. I would not hesitate to bring my vehicle there and would recommend Lindsey Bimmer Service to anyone that needs work on their car.
-Greg S. -
My wife and I have used Josh for about 3 years for our 2005 325i since moving to Austin. I have had misc work done, oil changes, fluid changes and also had a leaking head gasket replaced. He always provides clear options and an objective opinion. Bottom line: His service is good, prices are fair, and I have never had to return the car because something was not done correctly. That said, I did have to return one time when I realized I put his laptop power supply in my briefcase :-) He took that in stride.
-Blair K. -
Josh and his crew have been taking care of my 325i and 540i for the past few years. They only do the work necessary to keep the cars in top notch condition, well beyond the 125K mile mark! Recently, they got my car ready for a cross-country trip and it went without a hitch. The car even achieved 27 mpg cruising at an average of 75 mph. Thank you, Josh!
